Difference between "floating" and "heavy floating"?

Okay, I've been throwing swimbaits for a while and I'm embarrassed to say I don't know the difference between a "floating" and a "heavy floating" swimbait, like the new Magnum Strong Gill. I assume they both float, but is one just heavier?  Sits deeper in the water?

 

Just looking for enlightenment.

You could think of them as slow float and fast float, similarly to slow sink vs. fast sink. One rises up slowly and usually dives deeper upon the retrieve, and the other bobs back up to the surface quickly/ is very buoyant

Cool!  Does anyone have comparative video of this?
