Winter is the coldest season of the year. That’s why when talking about winter sports I think of all the sports that have something to do with ice and snow. I can say that I am a fan of sports, be it winter or summer ones, but I find winter sports more spectacular and engaging. When I’m asked about winter sports I think of biathlon, bobsleigh, curling, ice hockey, figure skating, luge, skiing, snowboarding. All these sports are included in the Olympic Games and are worth admiring. I think that the athletes who participate in the Olympics deserve sincere respect. As for me, I’ve always been into snowboarding. Luckily, there are some friends of mine who support my choice and we go snowboarding in the mountains together. To be honest, I think that it’s the best and the fastest growing winter sport. Many teenagers across the world go snowboarding and try to do various tricks. I know that for the first time people started using the snowboard in the 1920s and since then the activity has been rapidly progressing. I myself began snowboarding from a young age, as my parents were fond of this sport. Today, we often go snowboarding together. A lot of people influenced my skills and taught me new tricks. My first teacher was my father. After him I had several qualified trainers. And when I started feeling more comfortable, I was allowed to go snowboarding with my friends. I never miss the competitions that take place in our region and I certainly watch the various winter sports on TV.
