Skate skiing usually involves shorter skis and longer poles than classic skiing (which has longer skis and shorter poles). In skating, a wider, flat, groomed track is preferable whereas a classic skier would use narrow tracks and could pretty easily go off the track and ski around in deeper snow. The techniques are also different. For skating, there are three general methods: V1, V2, and V2 alternate. V1 is generally used going up hills, where as the other two are more for flat or downhills, but all involve poling at the time or soon before one of your skis touches the ground and pushes off to let you glide. For classic skiing, the technique is different, and involves poling and gliding on opposite legs and keeping your weight over your hip for the best weight distribution.
Nordic skiing: The Scandinavian tradition of skiing, which includes cross-country skiing as one of its disciplines, is referred to by this name. Skiing XC: Cross-country is commonly abbreviated as XC when referring to the sport. Touring on skis: Cross-country skiing in mountainous terrain, in which skiers traverse uphill and downhill to explore backcountry areas, is frequently referred to by this term. Langlauf: Cross-country skiing is frequently referred to as a "langlauf," which translates to "long run," in German-speaking regions. Skiing in a traditional manner: One of the two primary approaches to cross-country skiing, along with skate skiing, is the classic style. Cross-country skiing can be distinguished from skate skiing by referring to it as "skiing in the classic style."
