I think the bubbles actually create some lift to slow down the skier’s descent into the pool.
No they pretty much do the exact opposite. Bubbles help in two ways:
1. Reduce surface tension of the water
2. Reduce the density of the "water" that the falling body impacts.

Both reduce the initial impact force and have the side effect of increasing the depth of which the body will sink to.
