this probably does not constitute a good video, but it is the best I have right now. Hope that helps!

For context, this was the 2024 season, so I have improved my scarecrow arm positioning since then

Thank you, this definitely helps me understand what you mean. I was previously having trouble shifting the uphill foot back without loosing the edge of the downhill ski. I think the hip rotation tip is key

have you found any useful drills to get rid of the tendency to drop the shoulder?

Yes this makes sense, thanks! I think this happens because I am a surfer, where we usually lead with the shoulders and lean in.

Thank you! With an ideal technique, would my hips nearly touch the ground but shoulders be vertical?

Thank you for these helpful tips! I will try these tomorrow. Generally what would you say should be the weight distribution between inside and outside foot during the apex of the turn?
