@carveaddict75 Yeah, I think that's right. When you look at pictures, it seems like you'd want to lean way over to get your hips close to the snow, but when I try that I wash out. When I started thinking more about getting my chest (right shoulder, maybe) up over my front knee, suddenly I had a lot more balance and power, AND my hips were getting lower (more angulation on the board) without trying to do that. The last year I rode duck (+15/-12) was 2023, and I bet it looks familiar to what you're describing: (Start at 0:42)

There are a bunch of elements that go into it, and I found that keeping a journal helped me make more progress. I just kept a pad of paper and a short pencil in my coat pocket, and I would write/draw in it on the way  up the mountain sitting in the chairlift.

@lukejuras I see more of the hip rotation on this one and somehow seems you're riding more comfortably/in control?  Looks like a big improvement bravo!
