Curious, does this look like a legit L or is there too much bend at the knee?
Thanks

Too much bend.
yep, knees must be completely straight.
and toes! straight knees and pointed toes means the lever is longer aka harder
And locking the elbows can't do any harm.
Pointed toes don't change things enough to make it harder or easier as far as exertion of the prime movers, but unless you have pretty good flexibility you will find that pointed toes are easier, because there is less of a stretch on the hamstrings and calves.
Yeah, and it looks better!
