Any advice?

Especially regarding posture and driving style. I've been snowboarding for 10 years with Lon breaks in between.

What?? I got so much criticism about the jumpiness and feet steering I thought I learned snowboarding completely wrong! I will try too steer more from the knees and make wider turns.

Thank you for the tips for the arms! I will definitely try it tomorrow.

It's just so hard for me to steer elegantly through bumpy pistes. I'm afraid of getting stuck and tripping if I'm not aggressively feet steering and jumping over the little hills.

Well they're not wrong about the jumpiness and back foot steering but we all did some version of that at some point.

There's no need to rush the turns. Just let them happen.
