Explanation:

We know from newton's 2nd law that F= m/a. That is force directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to acceleration. F is same for the skier and Earth but mass is different for both. m for earth is way larger than the m for skier. So, for constant Force , a of Earth must very small as compared with a of the skier.
