Why skis have large area of contact with snow?

Answer 1

larger area of contact will mean larger area for the pressure to spread. and less force will be exerted per unit area of the snow. hence the snow will remain intact underneath keeping the ground stable

Answer 2

Skis have a large area of contact with snow to distribute the skier's weight over a larger surface area, which helps prevent sinking into the snow. This increased contact area also provides better stability and control, especially in variable snow conditions.

Answer 3

they are good for the snow because the help you keep balance and to go faster hope that helped

LOL

Answer 4

To distribute the mass of the skier and thus reduce frictional drag.
