football	Ski rods	shirt
trainers	A pair of skis	shorts
shirt	Jackett pants	helmet
shorts	helmet	bike
Quite difficult	gloves	easy
youngsters	goggles	Quite expensive
Quite cheap	difficult
	Very expensive

Football is as popular among youngsters as among older people. It's the same with skiing and cycling. I think cycling is an easy sport. Football is isier than skiing. Football is cheaper than skiing because you only nedd a football.

Skiing is the most expensive because you need equipment and you have pay for the accommodation and the travel.
