Who plays skiing the best?

By country or individual? Downhill or cross country? If it is extreme sports, high speed downhill skiing, in this category while I could be wrong, believe it not the USA is numero uno. When it comes to the variety of events, acrobatic, standard downhill, obstacles etc, America has won more skiing events than any other country. However,when it comes to cross country, the people who invented it, namely Norway, are still the king. Nobody, out-cross-country skis Norway. Also, no, a Nordic track doesn't count; cross country skiing let me warn you now is a physically brutal sport. It will push your limits all across the board, and toughen you up mentally. In fact, far as winter sports go it is probably the king when it comes to building up mental toughness.

Which sport has the best conditioned players?

I think that this one is a matter of opinion, but among the sports with the best conditioned athletes would have to be soccer, water polo, marathon, cross country skiing, triathlon, decathlon, gymnastics and boxing. The first two sports require continuous action. Marathoners and cross country skiing require tremendous endurance. Decathletes and gymnasts require a wide range of athletic skills and boxers, especially those in the lower weight classes have to endure being beat on for extended periods of time. One measurement that can be used to determine the best conditiioned athlete is VO2 max. Cross country skiers tend to perform the best using this measurement. Elite cross country skiers will have a VO2 max in the 90's. As a comparison, Lance Armstrong highest recorded VO2 max was 83.6 while cross country skier Bjorn Dahlie recorded a VO2 max of 96.
