Paralympic Nordic Skiing

Paralympic Nordic skiing is the umbrella category for Winter Paralympic cross-country skiing and biathlon, both raced on snow trails by athletes with physical or visual impairments. Competitors are classified as standing, sitting (using a sit-ski), or visually impaired (skiing with a guide), and results are adjusted with a percentage factor to compare across classes fairly. The discipline highlights the combination of cardiovascular endurance and technical skiing skill adapted to a wide range of impairments.
