Yeah, it shows countersteering.

You make a slowish, long-radius turn to the right at 1:40. There's bit of countersteer at the start of it. It's often something people are not aware of doing.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 2:58

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 3:39 (there's another countersteer in the middle of the turn).

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 5:34.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 5:53.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 6:09.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 6:12.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 6:18.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 6:23.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 6:28.

You countersteer at the start of the turn at 6:40. This one is interesting because its showing how the countersteer for the upcoming turn comes from ending the prior turn. In this turn, you turn the bar left much more than you need to for that left turn (the bars are tweaked a bit more to the left). That's the countersteer for the turn you make to the right. The turns on this ride often obscure the countersteering that is going on.

I bet I missed many more.
