My Topic

       
The topic I selected for my blog is The History of Skiing. I decided to chose this topic because I love the sport of skiing and I would like to learn more about it. I hope to increase everybody’s knowledge, including mine, about the history of skiing. I have skied for about 10 years and have seen the sport evolve in my lifetime. Skis have evolved from bones of large animals to a carbon fiber center with a metal base. That’s just the equipment; the sport has evolved a lot more than just the skis. The first skis were used for hunting, traveling, military maneuvers, and transportation.
