I am good at trail jumps but expanding over to more dirt jump style to enjoy Rays this winter. How's my form. I feel like I have control and don't think I'm getting bucked but want another opinion on it.

Overall, looks pretty good.
Get some knee pads, and you’ll look perfect.
You are too far back, and it shows on the landing. You’re currently soaking the kicker which is not necessarily a bad thing, but if you’re trying to build height this is not the way. You seem to be barely doing any upwards movement and not pushing much into the jump.
It looks like you’re trying to clear the distance by pushing your bike forward too which is probably why you end up a bit back seated.
Other than that looks solid, keep working on it !
The transition of the kicker where it meets the grass looks abrupt and chunky.
Not ideal to setup and get your pump on for the jump.
Smooth out the bottom of that transition or find a jump with a smoother transition and it’ll be easier for everyone to check out your form.
