      Sit-skiing (same thing) is a type of skiing using a special ski designed for wheelchair users. It’s really cool, you can fly down a mountain as fast (or faster..) as anyone else. Here’s a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xjUUf_sK84

      You have a seat mounted on a single ski and crazy people hurtle down a ski slope on it!
      Probably the scaryest sport I’ve ever come across.
