To reduce friction, so they go faster.
Wax helps skis glide smoothly over snow by reducing friction between the ski base and the snow. It also helps to repel water and debris, improving performance and maintaining the condition of the ski base.
You would be better served to type 'snow ski tune up" into a search engine and select a site. It is hard to explain every detail here. You might call a few ski shops and ask if they have any tune up clinics.
Using Gulf Wax, which is a paraffin-based product, is not recommended for waxing a snowboard. Snowboards require specific ski and snowboard waxes designed to provide proper glide, protection, and performance on snow. Gulf Wax may not adhere well or provide the necessary characteristics for optimal riding conditions. It's best to use wax specifically formulated for snowboards to ensure the best performance on the slopes.
Snow can occur in a high pressure system when the air is cold enough for the precipitation to fall as snow before reaching the ground. In these situations, the high pressure usually brings clear skies and calm weather, allowing for the conditions to be favorable for snowfall.

Ski wax lets the skis glide over snow.
The wax protects the board against moisture and help reduce friction with the snow for a better ride.
skiing is......... going down hill on snow using skies to guid you
