Very smooth already.
If you want to make it last longer, try starting the turn earlier.
With more speed, keep a high traverse line on your toes. While still pointing across the run, make your move which you already do well.
You're just looking to start earlier, so you're already laid out before you hit the fall line.

As far as I can see, if you want to extremecarve, you are missing the legs movement: they seems to be locked in the same position instead of extending and bending.
Furthermore, I notice too much time standing still between the two curves.
Just my opinion.

The 'too much standing between two turns' is probably because of the slope being not fast enough. I agree to your comment about the stiffness in legs, some 'pumping' is much better. Though I can hardly comment with my old style and too much fear from backside turn:-)
On this site there are some clips but mostly race, no EC - but some of the riders are really good (Well Zajda you probably know this site already): www.snb.cz

Transitions ... the KEY
Hi Zajda
Nice smooth style:)
I agree with the other forum members advice with regards to the leg action, it almost looks like your boots are not letting you bend your knees 'easily' enough.
I would, however, suggest you take a closer look at your transition(s) and how they are directly related to the rotation.
Take as long as you want between turns, as Mr Stevens suggested 'keep a high traverse line on your toes', but make sure you are in the 'Egyptian' position the ENTIRE time you are in the transition phase.
In your second video, during the transition from your frontside to backside turn, your shoulders/hips are more or less perpendicular to the tip and tail of your board. You do not change the shoulder/hip position, it remains static during the transition and backside turn. Notice how your left arm moves, but the shoulders/hips do not ... during the backside turn.
So ... more rotation!
-start from the 'Egyptian' position
-keep the shoulders/hips parallel to the tip and tail of the board ... for the entire transition
-keep the board up on the toeside edge
-initiate a strong rotation (90 to 120 degrees approximately) as you simultaneously tip the board edge to edge
Good luck from one apprentice to another!
Rob

Hi,
I think you need a steeper slope.
Apart from that you seem to be doing quiet good.
