Skids on a Sikorsky

I realised the other day that Sikorsky don't seem to do skids so I got curious and modified this S76 photo.

I'm no engineer so not sure if the struts are in the right places, but how do S76 drivers feel about it? Maybe it would mean less maintenance, less empty weight, less remembering, more fuel capacity.

Bell did it with the 222UT and Agusta with the A119.
