I didn't read any feedback so I'm going straight off the video. First, the skiing is static, which means balance and a balanced stance on one foot or the other is rarely established. Range of motion is limited in a long and short leg relationship. This is the case if you ski with two-footed weighting. With two-footed weighting, you can not achieve the long leg because CA isn't initiated and the hips stay over the back of the skis.
For a quick fix and a simple approach, ski on one ski at a time and create pull back with the free foot. One footed skiing means a lifted inside ski at transition. When you can achieve the lift at the right time in transit, pull that foot back, bring it back under your hips. These two movements and the focus involved to incorporate them, are needed to add CA and CB movements, afterward. I have just completed a new video for instruction covering the movements that will help. It's the "poles on the Knees" progression. And we have several other videos on our web site that demonstrate the timing of the lifting foot at transition. It will be online any day at our web store.
