We measured magnetotransport properties of PbS single crystals which exhibit the quantum linear magnetoresistance (MR) as well as the static skin effect that creates a surface layer of additional conductivity. The Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in the longitudinal MR signify the peculiar role of spin-orbit coupling. In the angular-dependent MR, sharp peaks are observed when the magnetic field is slightly inclined from the longitudinal configuration, which is totally unexpected for a system with nearly spherical Fermi surface and points to an intricate interplay between the spin-orbit coupling and the conducting surface layer in the quantum transport regime.
