Basically every winter sport has the same story: Your parents are millionaires and can affort to regularly take expensive trips to resorts. Gear, lessons, and any other fees are all taken care of from the time you were 4.

Most summer sports have many stories about poor athletes making a name for themselves and getting traction. That's possible when the upfront costs are a soccer ball and shoes, not a custom-tuned piece of modern engineering and 5 accessories.
