They go faster because they have a longer bottom which means they have a greater contact with the ground. More contact means more friction. This is what makes them go faster than smaller snowboards.


Does Friction makes things go faster.?

No, friction actually acts to slow down objects by opposing their motion. It is a force that acts in the opposite direction of an object's movement, causing energy to be lost as heat.


Does friction makes objects move faster over an inclined plane?

No, friction tends to oppose the motion of objects moving over an inclined plane, which can make them move slower rather than faster. The amount of friction between the object and the surface of the inclined plane can affect how quickly the object accelerates or decelerates while moving.


Why does a snowboarder hate friction?
