Skiing 12.12.09

Hallo Alle :)

I would like to tell you something about one of my really favourite sport - SKIING. Well I think it´s very good thing to relax your body eventhough it´s sport. You can spend your free time with your friend surrounding by fresh air.
Wikipedia defines this activity "as a group of sports using skis as equipment for traveling over snow. Skis are used in conjunction with boots that connect to the ski with use of a binding.
Skiing can be grouped into two general categories. Nordic skiing, the older of the two disciplines, originated in Scandinavia and uses free-heel bindings that attach at the toes of the skier's boots but not at the heels. Types of Nordic skiing include cross-country, ski jumping and Telemark. Alpine skiing (often called "downhill skiing"), originated in the European Alps, and is characterized by fixed-heel bindings that attach at both the toe and the heel of the skier's boot."

We visited the Alps and exactly the small part called Kühtai

Einst der Jagdsitz von Kaisern und Grafen ist das idyllisch gelegene Kühtai heute einer der beliebtesten Skiorte Tirols. Hier wird Genuss - Skifahren großgeschrieben, Tourengeher können auf zahlreichen Routen das Sellraintal entdecken, Snowboarder u. a. im Funpark ihren Mut beweisen.
Ok, and one more information, if you want to eat the best thing and taste the really good food, tra the Restaurant called Kühtaier Alm. You can find it directly opposite to the Hochalterbahn. :)
