Skis don't sink in snow because of their wider surface area that distributes the skier's weight over a larger area, which creates more pressure and prevents them from sinking. Additionally, the design of ski bindings and boots help to keep the skier's weight evenly distributed on the skis to maintain buoyancy on the snow.
Yes, waxing skis is an example of intentionally increasing friction. The wax creates a rough surface on the ski base that interacts with the snow, providing more grip and control when skiing downhill.
What i think is, as there is less friction on a muddy road it is difficult to walk on it. Water has less friction, that is why usually we see cautions warning us not to walk on wet floor as we'll slip and fall, so when soil is in contact with water it reduces the friction of soil.
Rocks sink because they are denser than water, causing them to displace less water and therefore sink. Metal objects sink due to their high density, which makes them heavier than water and causes them to sink. Sunken ships sink because they take on water, increasing their overall weight and causing them to sink below the water's surface.
Anorthite has a specific gravity greater than 3, which means it is denser than water and will sink in it.
Marbles are denser than water, so they will sink when placed in water.
It's like a motorbike with skiis and a tread and it goes on snow.
These includes snow shoes, sleds, skiis and snow goggles,
The snow is soft and our weight is concentrating on our feet so there is more pressure hense our feet sink in snow
People can sink in snow because snow is made up of loosely packed snowflakes that can collapse under a person's weight, causing them to sink. This is more likely to happen in deep, powdery snow or snow that has a weak underlying layer.

Skiis, ski poles, ski boots, snow pants, coat, mittens, ski helmet/ hat, ski gogles. :-)
no they wud sink
We do not sink because the skis have a high surface area compared to our feet, therefore we would float on fresh snow.

cause you'll sink into the snow
Because boots are heavy.
