A few things off the top of my head:
- "falling leaf" is a good way to start, until you can figure out how to link your turns without catching an edge
- always keep your weight on the upslope edge. If you're going fast and catch an edge, you'll be on the ground before you know what happened
- I like Flow bindings (negates the need to do the usual sit down and fasten your bindings after getting off the lift)
- I like the Boa laceless system for boots: time saver, and you can easily tighten/loosen them
- I like Thirty Two boots (very lightweight - you won't realize the importance of this until after you've used heavy boots)
- ALWAYS wear a helmet
- Get gloves with a removable lining - makes drying them out much easier
- consider wearing wrist guards; it's hard to break the instinct of trying to break a fall with your hands
- cotton socks are a no-no
