- Depth awareness: Being aware of space and distance can help you ski with greater confidence and allow for higher speeds and increased safety.

- Visual-motor integration: Coordinating your vision and motor skills is crucial for taking turns exactly as planned and maintaining control on the slopes.
- Visual perception: Perceiving everything that's going on in your visual field allows you to spot obstacles and prepare for them ahead of time.
