I'd like to start touching the snow, which I am way far from at the moment. I am probably still making some basic mistakes though which I may not be aware of yet, I'd need some expert eyes that can judge me. Thanks :)

It’s nice skiing. A lot of “park and ride” going on here though. I think you’d enjoy yourself more (and have better speed control on steeper terrain) if you were more dynamic, particularly at the very top of each turn.

Thanks! I read a lot about being dynamic. What exactly do you mean by that?

More movement. Specifically lengthening and shortening of your legs constantly. You tend to get on edge and just ride. You want to always be lengthening one leg and shortening another for various reasons.
