• Uphengululo lwe

Ukuskiya ngokwawo kunzima ngokwaneleyo. Ngoku khawube nombono wakho utyibilika ekhephini ngoxa urhuqelwa phambili lihashe. Ngokwenene banegama lolo. Ibizwa ngokuba yi-skijoring, eguqula 'ukuqhuba ukuskiya' ngesiNorway, kwaye ngumdlalo okhuphisanayo wasebusika. (Ungafunda ngakumbi malunga nokubaleka kwehashe kwividiyo engentla, kodwa kukho ezinye iindlela ezahlukeneyo zomdlalo, apho izinja okanye iijet skis zitsala khona.)

"Kuvakala ngathi kulula, kodwa xa usenza i-40 mph ngasemva kwesilwanyana esingama-1500 eepawundi, iya isiba nemincili," utshilo uDarn Anderson, umdlali wezemidlalo waseNew Mexico. UAnderson ukhe watyibilika ekhephini ukusukela kwiminyaka eyi-2 kwaye ebaleka iminyaka engaphezu kwamashumi amabini. Kuye, ukuskiya ngokungxama kukungxama ngokungafaniyo nenye.

Kolu lonwabo lwezemidlalo, umkhweli, isikeyiti nehashe ngokuyintloko baba yinto enye. Ikhosi uqobo lwayo intle tyaba, yiyo loo nto iskier sixhomekeke kakhulu kwihashe ukukhawulezisa kunye nokuwisa umjikelo weenyawo ezingama-800. Injongo kukwenza kube ngaphezulu kokutsiba okuthathu ngelixa uqokelela iiseti ezintathu zamakhonkco kwaye uzama ukungaweli okanye uphulukane nebhalansi. Ekugqibeleni, elona xesha likhawulezayo liyaphumelela.

Ngokungathandabuzekiyo, oku kunokuba yingozi kakhulu. “Kuninzi kunokonakala kwimizuzwana eli-17,” utsho uRichard Weber III, umkhweli wehashe wesizukulwana sesine. "Abatyibilizi banokuntlitheka kwaye amahashe anokuntlitheka kwaye nantoni na inokwenzeka."

Kodwa kubathathi-nxaxheba, ingozi ibonakala iyinxalenye yesibheno. I-Skijoring iyamangalisa ngokungaqiniseki, kwaye uvuyo lolo lugcina abantu bebuya ngokunye.
