Though I have no real experience, I believe what your asking could possibly happen as follows.
You are atop 6-8 inches of crust with powder underneath, a turn ( most likely) breaks the crust and you are now in powder attempting to push and hopefully climb back on the crust. I'd assume it would be like breaking through ice in a marsh having a bulk to push with minimal traction resulting in some additional downward force ( less floatation).
Again I'd assume, a straight path in either direction would be your friend to climb back on top though it may continue to break for a while.
