pop more off the jump so that you can set your rotation slower

when you land, depending on if your spining right/left, lean into the rail to slow you down. im doing the same thing.
i spin right, slide right foot forward, what im doing tho is nat 270 on, unnatural slide, and like digging my toes into the rail, so you dont kee spinning..
if that makes sence

What i have noticed is that if you scissor your skis and put alot of weight towards your leading ski near the front binding it really helps....so kind of liek do a nose with your leading ski but not with your back....sounds confuseing but just try it......

It looks like you're over rotating the initial 270.
