Just to clarify, flying on powder doesn't ncessarily going fast, it's just the sensation that bottomless pow gives.

From my very limited experience, I think "flying" is good terminology. It takes a certain amount of speed before the plane can lift off, and there seems to be a certain threshhold of "letting go" before the skis begin to transition from long snowshoes to something that flies in the powder, and that is the challenge for me.
