    Feels good, maybe legs a bit wobbly?
    Slight upper back rounding is this an issue? Sorry about bad camera angles
    Cheers

    This is a set of two and a set of three.

    The set of three tells us more. The bar is moving all over the place on the floor. First, the bar is in front of mid-foot. When you start to break the bar off the floor, your hips rise to where they need to be because of this. You’re combining bringing your shins to the bar, snapping your back sort of into place, and jerk the bar up. The bar is going around your knees on the way up because of all the mechanical inefficiencies in your setup. I don’t see much back setting.

    The front view shows that you’re not keeping your knees out.

    Take a look at the five step deadlift setup in SSBBT3. Perform each step purposefully. Give us a set of five from the front oblique showing these steps.

    Lifting shoes will help.

    Stop breathing out or in while the weight is off of the floor. Why use valsalva at all if you just throw it away at the top of your lifts. Get some proper shoes.
