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
friction is very important during Snowboarding in very many ways;
One is that if not for friction very few would survive in the lovely game
of snowboarding, why you may ask well it is all based on the definition of
friction, what is friction( this is the resistance of two or more surfaces to
an extent of making them heat up.)
It is through friction that one is able to stop,spin, jump & even turn during snowboarding or would it be possible to do this things without FRICTION. NO.
read more of this on Cameron McCormick's report
It is through Friction that we enjoy snowboarding a lot. This is the reason why we can still count our speed limit when we descend in a slope.
Friction between your board and the snow/rail/box slow you down while snoboarding. I guess friction with the air would slow you down too if you want to count that.

What is snowboarding forces?
Inertia, friction, gravity
How are friction forces similar to others forces?
They affect the acceleration of bodies.
What forces affect a race cars speed on a track?
Friction and Gravitational forces
How goes friction affect forces?
Force due to friction opposes an object in motion, and any forces that propel that object.
Two forces that can affect an object's velocity?
Gravity and friction.
What are forces that affect swimming?
There is friction in the water. There is also resistance from water.
Name the two forces that can affect an object's velocity?
friction and gravity
What are some other forces that affect a ball?
Air resistance, gravity, friction with the ground, and the impact force from a collision with another object are all forces that can affect the motion of a ball.
How is friction used snowboarding?
There is friction between the board an the snow, which slows the board.
What two forces can affect an objects velocity?
Two forces that can affect an object's velocity are acceleration and friction. Acceleration can increase or decrease the velocity of an object, while friction can slow down the object's motion by opposing its direction of movement.
What are two forces that can affect an object's velocity?
Gravity and friction there are others also like magnetism for example..
How science is involved in snowboarding?
Physics determines the basis of motion, friction, speed and other factors that lead into snowboarding. This is the easy answer.
