The disabled skiers need
particular equipment in order
to be able to practise this
sport: for instance, the
monoski, a complicated gear;
the artificial limbs, wich are
really expensive. In Italy, we
have a governement agency,
INAIL, wich deals with the
problem of disabled people
and give these athletes most
of the outfits they need to
practice their sport activies.
