History Of Skiing
speed skiing nearly past fear and terminal velocity, Fastest NonMotorized Sport ON Earth Fastest Non-Motorized Sport ON Earth
http://www.speedski.com/historyofskiing.htm

Extractions: History of Alpine Skiing Before skis were used for fun and leisure, the ski was used for work and transportation. The oldest known version is a wide, short ski found in Sweden that has been shown to be over 4500 years old , and cave and rock drawings suggest that skis were used even long before then. These first skis may have been used by a hunter or a traveler, as they were commonly used during the long winters in Northern Russia and the Scandinavian countries. Early skis were not made for speed, but to designed to keep a traveler on top of the snow as they went about their business. The people from the Telemark area of Norway have been largely credited with developing skiing into a sport, somewhere in the early 1700's. They invented the Telemark and the Christiana (now known as the Christie) turns as methods of artfully controlling speeds on downhill descents. They were also quite fond of jumping. Thus, disciplines in both alpine and Nordic skiing owe their existence to these early pioneers. The distinction that now we make between the different disciplines of skiing was not made centuries ago. All of the early skis had a boot mounted to the ski only at the toe, with the heel free to move up and down, what we now call a Nordic ski.

Extractions: History The oldest skis, found in bogs in Sweden and Finland, are believed to be 4,000 to 5,000 years old. Some of the first skis were short and broad, more resembling snowshoes than the long, narrow skis in use today. A rock carving of two men on skis, found near the Arctic Circle in Norway, dates from 2000 BC . There are references to skiing in northern China in the 7th century. The Vikings used skis in the 10th and 11th centuries, and somewhat later Sami (Lapps) hunted on skis.
