I got a hold of a book on skiing bumps based on a recommendation on this list. Dan from Eaton NH? Anyhow, I read it last year and I would have to say it's improved by overall approach. Try pushing the fronts of your boots a little harder with your shins without leaning over the ski with your upper body. It will engage the ski into a better turn.
