    The knee slide is pretty bad.

    Is that caused by going to low?

    No, it is caused by the idea that you squat with your quads and not your hips.

    You're definitely not too low, Knute. Maybe even a touch high on a few of these, though it's hard to tell.

    This may help you recalibrate from what Rip's talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SD2ZDJf6vMY

    Actually a lot better.

    Your stance is a tad narrow: your knees are tracking slightly outside your feet, which you don't watch (you can see it cause so knee wobbling on the way up). Widen it a little bit.
