Jbotti, I agree with your epiphany re: the importance of fore/aft for off piste skiing. I would add fore/aft is very important for skiers as they transition from easier terrain to more difficult terrain. As skiers move up to more difficult terrain, they tend to be timid, less aggressive in a forward stance and therefore end up aft on their tails. The moral of the story: the more difficult the terrain, the greater the importance of foot/feet pull back to maintain a forward stance.

Also be weary of being video'd on steep, broken snow terrain, skiing on Head KERS Supershapes? :o.
