I had the same problem at first, but looking at the end of the box really helps you not mess up the slide.

Look at the end of the box, keep your legs shoulder width apart, sort of a lower stance, and keep your weight over your skis. Don't lean back at all.

exactly what i was gonna say. if you are fallin on your ass you are way back. if you you can get by on a flat box like this sometimes but as soon as you try a down box you'll eat shit again. wider stance helps a ton

what this kid said is exactly what u wanna do.

when starting out it's a good idea to keep your weight on your downhill foot, or think of it that way. it'll prevent you from slipping out backwards and getting a hematoma. keep your stance wide, too.
