Yeah, I told you so! Look at Robie skiing powder on skinny skis--all he had to do is lift his toes a bit

Mofro's tips for being an expert skier:
1. keep a neutral and balanced stance
2. keep your hands forward and upper body quiet at all times
Consistently adhering to rules 1&2 will allow you to ski any snow surface with confidence....

Another vote for neutral and centered in any snow. If someone tells you to lean back in heavy snow it is likely they are not an expert skier.
One more thing - the Wayback is not a wide ski by contemporary standards, and the narrower you go the more skill it takes to ski challenging snow gracefully. Consider something wider and with a more pronounced tip rocker if you're having problems.
