They look okay from this angle, but it doesn't give us a full understanding of what's going on. The 45 degree angle from either the front or the back provides a lot more information.

One big problem is that the bar is swinging out a LOT once you get passed your hips. You need to think about keeping the bar close to you.

Yeah i know, been trying to focus on pulling straight up, but it still keeps swinging out.
