There is a variety of sports in the world. Some sports are enjoyed only in particular seasons such as summer of winter. I prefer winter sports to summer sports because I am more active in the winter than in the summer. Three winter sports I love are skiing, snowboarding, and ice skating.
Skiing is the first winter sport, which I have learned. In order to enjoy Skiing, you need a pair of skis, ski boots, a ski pole, and a ski suit. First of all, you should wear your ski boots and fix it to a binding, which is a part of a ski. In addition, you are all set if you hold your pole. Skiing is the easiest because it is flat, and the pair of ski makes you move freely. How to ski is also easy. If you go, you should make your skis parallel side by side, so you speed up steadily. If you make skis look like ‘A’, you can stop or reduce the speed. A person who ski first had as good start beginner course on a ski slope. When you ski down the slope, you must ski slowly and look like you draw the shape of ‘S’ on the slope. In every winter, I make a plan to go skiing but always fail. As this reason, It has been seven years since I skied last with my family. Because skiing is what makes my family friendly, I hope I go skiing with the family.
Whenever I talk to friends about the winter break plans, the one word is mentioned. It is snowboarding, which is the second winter sports. I have never gone snowboarding, but if I have a chance, I will try to do this because it looks very exciting. Snowboarding is really different from skiing. Snowboarding has many big fans, kind of mania, unlike skiing, which people usually do. It is hard to learn, and it is easier to get injured than skiing. Therefore, you must wear protective gear such as a wrist guard, a tendon guard, and especially a hip protector. The center of gravity is important when you snowboard as how to go, stop, and curve are related to change a weight balance. Because of it, people fall down many times, so the way you fall down is as important as the protective gears. Many people try to fall on their hands when they fall down, but it is dangerous.
