As an American I don't know much about skiing in Norway. Today I am very interested in learning about skiing from very young Norwegians. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!

Nordic kindergartens provide children real freedom of movement, learning how their body can move and developing great body motor skills early, add the creativity and development of their minds that playing outside gives children, Norwegians parents ease that their children might get a bit hurt, but will learn from it and a love for the outdoors and you get a country dominating in winter sports. No bard word for Søta bror, they rule the ice hockey rinks and have some bad ass skiers!

Dear Tyler. It's a lot of young children who really are extremely good at down hill skeeing, and in Norway it's common for a lot of children to join their parents and go out in down hill skeeing as a little kid. It's not very easy, but with steady boots and wide alpin skis it's significantly easier to learn than on narrow cross country skis in varying trails with movable binders. The most importent is that the small children themselves is the most motivated person in such a team. My wife and I we loved to play with our small children in the winter-times. Best Regards from Arne in Norway

These are above average. But I do remember when I was about 10-11 years old we skied on slalom skies (if that is what they are called in English) trough really heavy forests. And it was steep!! And at the end of our "homemade" slope we bulit jumps...I think we landed at about 25 meters. How no one was seriously hurt...I have no clue. :) I'm 52 now, by the way. And we didn't have helmets and stuff. There was a few stiches needed sometimes. But otherwise...nothing serious.

I definitely don't agree that all kids do black slopes, at least not with the school class trips we did that included other schools, I'd say the majority of the kids didn't. Albeit, definitely more are willing to do black slopes than doing tricks or going to the forest.

A "buff" is just a tube scarf, they're super-duper common in Norway, especially for kids as a normal, long scarf will often get tangled in stuff, come undone, fall off etc., not to mention the increased risk of having it get caught on stuff and prove a strangulation hazard. A tube scarf CAN get caught on stuff too, of course, but it's much tighter and not flapping around so it's much safer. You can use it as a hat, as a scarf, or both. (I got my first cross country skis at 2, but I never really fell in love with skiing and have only done proper downhill skiing once. I blame it on my parents - they never really went skiing so it was just compulsory school ski trips which was torture for the least skilled. 🤪)

Most can and know how as we are taught from we are very little, tho the majority isn’t necessarily good at it. There’s a difference between a pro (olympics) and those just doing it during easter and winter break for cultural and traditional reasons. In my family growing up during the 90’s and 2000’s we only did cross country skiing which is the traditional way. And it’s usually a division between those who do cross country vs down hill as the latter has been seen as more cool and less lame like cross country. All the cool kids did down hill or snow board. I remember I nagged myself to get a snow board, but it was different compared to skiis so I never learned how to. My brother had twin tip. Tbh I hate skiing in general, and stopped when I was old enough to refuse as prior we were forced to… winter activities in general isn’t my thing. Not even ice skating, tho I love the cold weather.

The zig-zag helps controll the speed, the smaller the turn (the less you turn, more straight down hill) the faster you go, with sharper harder turns slowing you down.

Follow up to your question, you go left and right down the slope to manage speed. If you go straight downhill, nothing is slowing you down, and before you know it, youll be racing 60mph down the mountain. You can do that, unless the place specifies its not allowed, but you also run the risk of hurting yourself, or even killing yourself

norwegians are not born with skis on their legs, that would be very very disturbing to experience. It may be normal for some to start skiing at a young age. The schools used to go on ski-trips or a day in the alpine facilities near here when I was a teen in the early 90s, but it's not like that now. They don't go on these trips anymore, it's probably 25 years since I had skis on my legs, and my two kids have never tried it. They prefer scooters in the skatepark. Snow is nice and all that to looka at, and I live where there is a bit snow, but not a ton, like in the south-west, but I would not mind living in a place where the temperature never went below 75f Personally I strongly dislike to have to deal with snow, and I wouldn't dream of using it recreationally :D hahaha.

Also: No, norweigans can be uptight about what activities the kids get to do. If you wanna climb a tree in a schoolyard, forget it. It's literally illegal to let kids climb trees. It'r perfectly fine to let kids strap sticks to the feet and fly downhill faster than a snowmobile, but it they try to climb a tree you need to arrest them. There are basically 2 outdoor activities that kids are allowed to do: Skiing and fotball.

I do love that they used kids to promote skiing, and those was fantastic! For Americans that not even know what a map is.. I can revele.. its even a north on USA maps! To your surprise.. USA is one of the best winter sport nations in the world, becuse of its mountains, its cold climat in the north and US kids grows up and get used to skiing/skating/any winter activity! Its rather this.. under wich stone have you lived your whole life, to not know that USA is one of the best winter sport nations????

Swede here and started skiing (cross-country skiing) when I was about 3 yrs old. Due to my parents circumstances I did not start downhill skiing until I was 13 yrs old (well, stood on my dads ski when I was 3-4 yrs old downhill when he was younger and still in physical condition) but I am glad I did, so much fun! I am sad that me and my hubby did not go on with it but we do not have any good slopes around where we live and it is quite expensive, especially with a bunch of kids. Had been a blast to go downhill skiing with our kids! You know, kids are so much more flexible in their bodies and more fearless than adults = easy learners. It is much harder to learn physical stuff when you get older. You got it right with carving controlling the speed. If you go straight down, downhill skiing race, it is harder to control and in the slopes you are resposible to not smashing into the skiiers beneath you in the slope, so you have to be really good at skiing to avoid that. Strong legs, balance and a happy mind...you get a lot of benefiths from skiing...and exercise and it is NOT to late to start for you!

Wherever there is snow and there are slopes, kids ski. Across Canada, Scandinavia, Bavaria, and the Alpine areas of Europe; in Hokkaido, and even South Island New Zealand, kids ski as soon as they can walk. In areas of the US, too. Kai Jones, who started skiing at aged three, became one of the world's best junior wild skiers at aged 10. He's from Wyoming. You need to get out more!

This May sound like bullshit, but it's true. Vikings in Norway invented skiis in the Viking age. Oldest skiis found were under a glacier in Norway. So Vikings in this country hunted raindeer while skiing in the alpine moaintain ranges here over 1000 years ago. And that makes it true. Norwegians were born with skiies :)

thaha, dude, this is the whole of Europe if you got mountains. I'm Swiss but I'm not from the alp regions so I'm not nearly as good as these kids. But for them alps folks pretty much everywhere in Europe it's common to ski or snowboard like... as soon as they walk. Like, literally. 😄

It’s a saying about Norwegians that we are born with skis on our feets. I am not good at down hill skiing like these children , because I grew up with cross country, and we didn’t have all this gear in the -70 ties

Well, these kids are "old". Normal to see 4 years old kids downhill in scandinavia or switherland. And they are very good at skiing for their age. Kids needs to master some danger
