Skis-probably AR didn't want to cram in yet another expertise topic--
so many young-people skills to exploit, so little time --
presumably Skiing (in Switzerland etc) at that time was beginning to be an in-thing for reasonably well-off English families ..and cross-country skiing certainly featured in the Polar exploits referenced in WH; ice-skating was AR-feasible, because available in English towns -- and didn't need native involvement... and of course the Oxus books latched onto ponies...
I have always (having fun) suggested a young people's book based on do-it-yourself surgery.... or later, make-your-own-Nuke (which indeed exists as a book/film, based possibly in real life-- I forget).
