Sounds like the same as cross-country skiing to me.

  Yup--they're synonyms. People tend to use either "Nordic" vs "Alpine" or "Cross-country" vs. "downhill" skiing.

  Difference is in so-called "Nordic" skiing, only the front of the boot is attached to the ski and part of the technique is flexing the ankle and raising the heel during parts of the stroke.

    Telemark skiing is still a different thing.
