Need critique on hang power clean

[Shonster]

Hi Coach,

Please take a look at my form for my hang power cleans. Thanks!

These are not really hang power cleans. They are full squat cleans done following a deadlift. Most of them, anyway.

[Shonster]

Oops...got the terms mixed up as I am still relatively new to oly lifting. But how's my form beside the obvious lack of speed and aggression?

Interesting camera angle there. Is that supposed to help us visualize something?

[Mark Rippetoe]

Yeah, Tibby's right, can't see much from that angle. Plates are in the way, and the image is essentially 2-dimensional. Retake the thing from 45 degrees front.

Hi Coach, I'm back with a retaken video although the vid quality is kinda shitty.

Notice the bar coming forward as it leaves the floor? The clean at the top is fine, but the bar is going out around your knees off the floor. Start with your butt higher and make the bar stay back as it leaves the ground.
