Look at the outside leg. Does it flex (even 1mm)? If so there is no up move.

I suspect what you are seeing is the arm pump which is a race inspired recentering move.

I guess my MA skills need some preseason tweaking because I re-watched that 2nd video and I'm still seeing a very crouched position at the apex of the turns and almost full extension through transition (with very pronounced "bouncing" from side to side).  Start watching the turns from about 0:32 in.  If that's not what's happening then I really need to be schooled on what's actually going on in this skiing.  It looks nothing like HH to me.
