Well, im assuming you mean how do they work as in, how does it go smoothly down a hill?

Well a snowboard ahs many components that take place

-flex

-board shape

-bindings

-boots

-riders ability

The board overall moves from your weight force going down a hill.. The board will go downt he hill because when it is on the snow, it actually glides on little water molecules from the snow, as your board mves down it causes friction, Heat, and that will melt a tiny layer of snow which causes the board to move swiftly. Have you ever notices your board with ice of the bottom and it won't glide down the hill, well the ice is thick adn layered differenctly thatn your board, so it makes that ice actually hitt he snow when your movind down, picture this, your board is laying on a little film of water under the board, well the little peice of ice sticks to the ground as it trys to melt and forms withthe snow on the ground.

Now your board type/style

Has a big role it contributes to what terain your board is for, and the smoothness and flex. The boards flex determines the amount of pressure put ona point. The shape can change everything. the shape determines where the flex is, shapes can hold in as camber, v rocker, rocker, and flying v.

Boots add flexability also...
