Just to clarify, you don't have to float on top with a rocker or fat ski, you can modulate the depth that you want to ski at, You want to go deeper, you just need to arc more or push down more, float up, unweight slightly or decrease the arc.

EDIT- ADD ON-  its not just riding on top or down deep, the feeling and sensation changes as well, its not just the fact of width that determies the ski used for me, there's no formula, it kind of depends on what or how I want to ski that day. Just want to cruise around, surf and have fun jibbing around, I may want a big fat rocker (HB) want to be more aggressive, ski more technical lines, I may want the Nomads or Pilgrims, so it''s not just a matter of the depth of the snow.
