Swedish Sports (1907)

Boys and girls are seen tobogganing in their sleds; a view being given of a banked turn in the course of which the riders go at an alarming speed. Expert ski-ers are shown going down the steep chute, from which they shoot high into the air, landing in the snow, some upright and others not. A very fine skater is next seen executing many difficult feats on skates, whirling round and round in a series of bewildering gyrations. The sport of skating with a huge windsail is next shown, and this is followed by a fine view of ice-boating, the large, graceful ice-boats skimming over the glassy surface like huge white birds. Skating behind military horses is finally shown, the animals with saddle riders are going through a regular military maneuver, while the skaters follow by holding on to the reins behind.
