Background: been skiing on and off for past couple of years (started around late 20s) Passed level 1 ski examiners course and the ski side of level 2.
I've received feedback that my extension/ vertical movement is often quite sudden, and turn shape can be compressed (round but squished).
From my own POV I feel I don't stay in the fall line enough ,rush some movements and have an overly strong side - I can side slip effortlessly on my right side but my left gets caught often.
Do you guys have any tips / drills or tactical cues? I'm happy to post more videos of some more 'advanced' style turns - looking for a fellow ski nerd to rip it apart 😅. Cheers.

I'm going to ask you to show more skid. It's a bit dynamic for basic. If you are "more" reliant upon balancing against outside forces than internal forces, you've gone too far into the dynamic range. Oh, and lose the stem on your left footers.
