holding off 10 feet above the runway.
If you are doing that you are too high
Often you will fly the aircraft onto the deck with no holding off
Whilst in a big aircraft that approaches with a positive nose attitude you will get away with this, most low hour pilots will not and it is often the cause of nosewheel accidents, with practice I agree that it can be a better way in some conditions, and really you are still doing a hold off but with a more positive descision of when to put it on the ground, but to do it properly you need to ensure the correct attitude on touchdown.
Try sitting where you can see the threshold and watch people land, you will see many flare and land instantly, nearly all putting all three wheels on at once or even nosewheel first, it is surprising how few actually land properly on the mains with the nosewheel held off.
