Abstract
We consider high energy scattering of open superstrings in flat spacetime. It is shown that in this regime amplitudes are dominated by minimal supersurfaces spanned by lightlike supercontours built of the on-shell momenta. We demonstrate how using a generalization of the functional over reparametrizations of the boundary one can extract the area of the minimal supersurfaces directly from the lightlike contour. Exponent of the area correctly reproduces RNS amplitudes. We also comment on possible implementation of the supercontours to Wilson loops/Scattering amplitudes duality.
