Puis les adultes allaient faire du ski pendant

Si "to go ski" est "faire du ski", pourquoi "would go skiing" n'est pas "faisaient du ski"?

Hi Vimal, 

There is a very slight difference between -

faisaient du ski = were skiing 

and 

allaient faire du ski would go skiing 

allaient skier = would go skiing 

Hope this helps!
