Why?

so i was dragged to the book fair at my little sisters school and while i was there pretty much just roaming around looking for any books with something to do with skiing, so i see this title sports illistrauted top 20 under 20. i was looking trough and i see golf, surfing, football, tennis, skateboarding, soccer, gymnastics, snowboarding, and some others.... BUT there was NO skiing, snowboarding but no skiing, i was pretty much floored, why all the other sports yet ours gets no recognition. the boarders in the book were hannah teter and some guy i had never heard of, skateboarders was some girl from california and ryan sheckler, i mean come on.... and there was evening people who were on the upcoming, sort of like an am. but yeah anyone else got thoughts on this?
