Cross country skiing is a fantastic winter sport that is easy to learn and will stay with you for life. Whether you are looking for a healthy recreational activity, to keep fit during winter, snow-fun for the whole family, an adrenaline rush, winter adventures or racing challenges, cross country skiing has something for everyone.
Cross country skiing involves two different styles. In Classic style the skis stay parallel most of the time and a grip section on the bottom of the skis stops them from gliding backwards. Skating, which took off in the 1980's, uses slightly shorter skis designed only for gliding and features a distinctive V shape similar to in-line skating or ice skating. As you progress and learn more techniques you become more efficient, use less energy and ski faster with minimum effort.
