    It's my first time asking for a form check, thanks in advance.
    This was my last working set of five at 107.5 kg (~237 lbs).
    I am sorry that the video had to be vertical but I had no choice.
    I want to know if I'm doing the hip drive thing correctly, it really doesnt feel right to me but I can see in the video that I'm maybe moving my hips forward.
    Also the bar always tends to tilt to the right on my back.
    107.5 kg squat - last set - YouTube
    Bodyweight : 245 lbs
    Height : 6'2"
    Have read the blue book.
    Thanks, Filip

    Widen your stance a touch and try to set your gaze a bit more ahead so your neck is more neutral. Then try and get a bit more lean at the hips at the start and reach back with your butt a bit more around halfway down. You actually do this a bit better towards the end of the set, but work on the consistency. At about halfway down knees should not be traveling forward anymore.
