There is also a 80/90% fix for the bike moving around when you do to. Do you think making your saddle movements while on the gas vs on the brake will make any difference? Also, it has something to do with your issue above too.
Here is a video of me.

I would try to move before starting my braking as to not upset the bike loading up the front suspension under braking. I feel like I am probably not locked in with my legs and am relying on my arms to hold on to the bike therefore putting input into the bars when its not needed/helpful
