One more try: Squat form check
So, I am trying to give you the best possible video since my previous attempts have not been up to snuff. So, here are 5 sets at 85% of my 5 rep max or 315 lbs.
I am trying to do low-bar, but I think the bar rises because I have too much pressure on my wrists/arms. Advice would be appreciated.
Also, I misplaced my normal squat shoes so squatted in crocs for the first time, which are squishy and terrible. But it is what it is.
Also, for the third set I noticed the wheels on one side move away so that is why the bar is offset. I did notice that I am inconsistent in my depth as well, but I think my main problem is shoulder/elbow/wrist positioning/flexibility.

Your main problem is that your depth is consistently high. Keep shoving the knees out and go down lower than you think you should. To fix your grip, grab the bar, then rotate your hands so your thumbs are pointing slightly up. When you go under the bar in this position you may only have your last three fingers in contact with it. That's fine. This will allow you to keep your wrists straight and your elbows up.
