Which Fitbit tracker do you use and where do you wear it? Which style (traditional vs. skating) do you use when skiing? I'm not sure whether it makes a difference from the point of view of your Fitbit registering activity, but you never know. It would make sense to me your Fitbit wouldn't register steps (especially with the traditional style, as there'd be less impact), or at least not as many as you'd like, but it should certainly detect you're moving. Have you tried to record your skiing as a separate activity with your Fitbit?
