There is friction between the board an the snow, which slows the board.
Inertia, friction, gravity
Physics determines the basis of motion, friction, speed and other factors that lead into snowboarding. This is the easy answer.
A friction board is a training tool used in sports such as snowboarding or skateboarding to simulate the feeling of riding on the snow or pavement. It helps athletes practice balance and control in a controlled environment. It typically consists of a board with a textured surface that creates friction when used with special socks or footwear.

NO The Dredge boots are not snowboarding boots. They are casual snow boots with features that are used in certain snowboarding boots but are not meant to strap into bindings.
This question is unclear...let's assume you are comparing a snowboard to a pair of skis, the snowboard usually creates more friction. This is why you see snowboarders clomping along on flat sections, while a skier may glide right through the flat. When ridden specifically on edge, however, a single edge of a snowboard will create less friction than two long skis on edge. In this manner, snowboards can go from creating a lot of friction to almost instantly creating very little. Also, a snowboard ridden straight will create less friction than skis that are angled across the slope, as in a snowplow or a skidded turn. On the other hand, a snowboard turned across the fall line can create an incredible amount of friction, such as when a novice boarder turns the board sideways to go very slowly down a hill that exceeds their ability. Also the wax on your board will change the amount of friction
Ice skating does not require any friction because the skater needs to glide on the ice and if there was any friction on ice the skater would have trouble to skate smoothly on the ice. That is why ice skating does not require any friction at all from my perspective.
There are three types of friction and all are all actually used often. These are static friction, rolling friction, and sliding friction.
