My favorite way to do it is to lean back.
My favorite feeling is when you kind of push down into the snow like you jump on a trampoline then just lean back and have fun.
Powder is THE EASIEST terrain to butter in.

Don't try to tail press in pow it just looks dumb.

Just get your slashes real proper and start buttering out of them
