Default 10 seasons back : quick introduction to skate skiing

A 1996 perspective in the Seattle Post.

I came across this nice article when searching for reading food to
understand skating technique better. As I'm so new to XC skiing, it's good
to read where skating came from. A bit sad that revolution is sort of
complete already, it must have been exciting times.

Have big things changed since, apart from all biathletes skating and half
the XC event in the Olympics to become skating? Are poles still super long,
is the speed difference with classic still growing, or has classic fought
back?
