I’m finally learning how to carve on a snowboard during this trip when I found out last time that I was snowboarding incorrectly. Follow me on my journey to learn this snowboarding skill at various resorts in Hakuba, Japan.

Yoooo I know that guy and his dog!
Cool to see you learn more. Something that helped me with learning how to carve was to make the letter 's" in the snow, big ones, small ones etc. Also another piece of advice that helps me despite sounding kind of dumb but works is that where ever you look with your face, you will generally go in that direction. Nice work, looks like awesome conditions to practice in and not get a lot of bruises! Also glad to see you crouch more towards the end, you gotta really make your legs work.
The secret to carving is getting your body as low as possible to the ground. On your heel edge, you should be trying to sit down. On the toe edge, you should be kneeling into the turn. Always keep your back straight. Use you outside of your feet/ankles/knees to push against the outside of each binding for balance and stability. Your body is not nearly low enough.
