"fart" is "speed" in both Swedish and Norwegian.
As ski wax makes you go fast, it is called "fart" in Norwegian. The French just borrowed the word which is why it is called "fart" in French too.
But the French got their revench; the international skiing federation is called FIS, which of course means "fart" in Norwegian/Swedish.
