What I see (and that might be of course wrong) is that you’re losing speed even though you should be gaining speed by coming down the turns. I think it’s because you’re focused a lot on your upper body and the front on posture, but you’re somehow separated in the middle of your body in the sense that you’re not compressing/extending with ease but somehow already your legs are bent a lot as you ride into the turn so you’re actually absorbing speed. I guess practicing speed generation independently could help you. I had an aha moment with this in one of the public you tu be videos from clay where he always tells the guy to stand taller and just press down. Once I felt this for the first time I was surprised how little effort it takes to actually generate speed (since I was overurillizing throwing my arms up before to get lift while in reality speed comes much more from simply pressing into the ground as you go down the ramp)… not sure if this helps / makes any sense?
Edit: I looked at the video again and definitely you kill speed because you lean too much forward. I believe clay would tell you to keep your back straight while practicing just the speed generation „speed is easy“

23:00 I see Clay explaining 2 ways of opening the shoulder. One is like this what he shows in the video where the hand is held high, the other one is where the hand is held low and the opening motion happens kind of "below the hip". Not sure if I'm explaining it right but could you elaborate on the difference between these two techniques?
