" (Amend section). Skiing is a sport that is practiced with long, narrow slip on dress shoes for men also called skis, attached to the feet. Primarily known for skiing on snow, introduced in the Alps and other European massifs at the end of the nineteenth century, it can also fit on all slippery surfaces with a significant surface tension: water, it is called water skiing, rock such as sand, sloping meadows, soil covered with pine needles, snow or ice artificial lattice frames covered with felt or textile indoor track. Skiing on natural snow is obviously dependent on the presence, strength and thickness of the snowpack, which limits his practice to mountainous regions and northern, and the winter season. The ski resorts have been built in many places for skiing and equipped with lifts, snowmaking, etc. . Skiing has long been only a means of travel and mode of transport, common during the long snowy winters in the Nordic countries, the regions of Siberia and the mountains of Central Asia. The ski-called "Nordic" is originally from Scandinavia. There are several techniques of Nordic skiing and downhill, which bear the names of places or regions of Norway: Telemark, the Christiania . . . . Downhill skiing, is to descend from the slopes of variable slope. This hobby has led to the construction sites equipped with lifts, generating a large tourism sector, especially in the Alps. The sport was well known in Europe skiing. Although the cross-country and downhill skiing are grouped under one heading of "ski", both the material techniques are very different between these two disciplines. The French word ski (e) occurs as early as 1841, through a simple reading defective, as evidenced by its pronunciation specific, perhaps by English or German, the word Norwegian ski, pronounced [?i] [1]. The French word ski seems to hesitate between male and female. In 1841, it is rather the female gender [2]. In 1876, after joining the Pierre Larousse dictionary, it adopts the masculine gender. In 1891, he lost his final e becomes ski [3]. The term Norse, the language behind the branch of the Scandinavian languages, ski skating replaces the word in use since the Enlightenment. [4] The old-Norwegian skidh means a billet of wood, a shoe or a racket for the snow. The Norse word skidh is to say, break or split, similar to the Greek schizein, split, Latin scridere, split, causing the split, the Gothic Skaidi, separate. In Norwegian ski mean piece of wood. It is not excluded that the term Norse was born of a merger with an onomatopoeic word of a non-Indo-European language, Finnish Scandinavia now gone south. Finnish dialects close to the Baltic Sea use the terms suhsi, Suksi, suks, sohs. The Tungus of eastern Siberia suuksildae know, huksille . . In general, the people of Northern Eurasian Zyryans, Sames, Voguls, Ostiaks, Samoyeds know the art of skiing and practicing more diligently than the southern Scandinavian. The transition from a group of skiers generates friction hissing sounds or whispering softly to the nature and consistency of the runway icy or snowy. The art of skiing was taught by the early Germanic Scandinavian Norse original speakers, but their technical mastery of woodworking and metal allowed them to assimilate the Fenno-Scandinavian word and make easier the utensil.
