? ? There are many versions about the origin of skiing. To sum up, the two versions are relatively concentrated. Let's learn about the origin of skiing:

? ? 1. Skiing originated in the extremely cold region of northern Eurasia and developed in Scandinavian countries. At first, because the cold winter brought inconvenience to people's lives, in order to survive in this harsh natural environment, smart people in the extremely cold area of northern Eurasia tied large pieces of animal bones to leather boots and used belts as skiing tools, so that people could gallop in the vast forests and snowfields and chase their prey at will. Later it gradually developed into skiing.

? ? 2. Skiing originated in Altay, Xinjiang, China. The written records of skiing can be traced back to Dayu period. According to Xia Benji, a historian, when Dayu was managing water, he ran around, that is, "land, boats, mud, sledges and mountains." At the International Symposium on Ancient Skiing Culture in Altay, China on 20 15, more than 30 ski history experts from Norway, Sweden, Finland and other 8 countries jointly published the Altay Declaration, agreeing that Altay, Xinjiang, China is the oldest ski area in the world. Since then, the view that human skiing originated in Altay, Xinjiang, China has been recognized by the international community for the first time.

The outstanding contribution of skiing in the war has also gone down in history. In A.D. 17 18, a small Swedish army failed to master skiing skills on its way to Norway. As a result, it was annihilated by the Norwegian army, and King Carl XII of Sweden was also killed in the battle. At that time, he would never have thought that skiing, as a practical tool, would defeat his troops, but in the future, it would become a daily sports activity, an extreme sport for sports challengers all over the world, and be listed as an Olympic event.

Summary: Skiing is one of the most popular winter sports, because it can burn passion in speed and is loved by many young people. At present, the leading countries in skiing in the world are Norway, Sweden, Finland, France, Italy and other countries. After more than 40 years of reform and opening up, China has become the second largest economic power in the world. At the same time, China has become a world-class sports power.
