Downhill skiing is a popular winter sport where individuals glide down snow-covered slopes on skis. Skiers use ski lifts to reach the top of the mountain and then navigate various trails, which are often categorized by difficulty levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The sport requires balance, coordination, and control to maneuver through turns and avoid obstacles. Skiing equipment includes skis, ski boots, and poles, which help skiers maintain stability and speed. Safety gear, such as helmets and goggles, is also recommended to protect against falls and harsh weather conditions. Many ski resorts offer lessons for beginners to learn the basics of the sport.
