The history of skiing +k

[akt416]

Im doing a project for school and I need to make a timeline for how skiing has evolved since it started. I got like 10 major events, (first x games, olympics, first triple cork, even as far back as the start of arial skiing). Its due tomorrow and I'm ripped and can't think of anything else, If anyone has any ideas it would be appreciated +k

if you're looking for random filler you could add some stuff about firsts for women in skiing?

Talk about Shane inventing pow skis and how it evolved the sport, then throw in that sick shot of him ripping that spine sideways. Usually does the job to fill some time.

I haven't watched it yet, but checkout the Bumps documentary.

Also, checkout Schneider and the Arlberg Ski School. Then again, history can be precarious, people will try to claim it.

Guys like Tanner Hall.... you never know how much he stole or borrowed from other people. Same goes with Shaun White or even McConkey.... and anyone who has been there since the beginning.

I am not implying anything about those people, just saying history can be manipulated and there are always other points of views and muffled or suppressed voices.

You could add how powder skiing has progressed, like how they used snowboard presses to create the first wide skis because all the ski presses were too thin. Take a look into that stuff, its quite interesting

The influence that IDEA had on modern, freestyle pow skiing (how Pollard, Pep and Mahre basically changed the game with massive, rockered, twin-tipped pow skis)
