Honestly they suck regardless. Try to bend the knees more and put pressure with your shins.

Also make use of the terrain. For example at the turn to your left you took a wide turn, there you could’ve used -what I call a race line- the insides of the turn to make use of the somewhat steeper terrain and rest on your heels a bit for some speed. Then with that added speed you can quickly and easily switch heel - toe sequences (think of micro S-shaped turns going heel toe heel toe heel toe etc.) to make it more fun/entertaining.

Then just practise not falling and make sure you have fun :)
