It seemed ok to me. You want to strive to push your shoulders together in front of you almost like you are trying to touch them underneath you. I found when i did this correctly, i had to reduce the angel of my planche lean. Keep up the good work~!

It' looks too me like your shoulders are elevating while you lean. What i mean is that you're using your upper traps and pulling your shoulders up closer to your ears like during a shrug. You have a good body position, your chest is hollow as it should be and your shoulders are pushed forward, but on top of this you want to actively be pulling your shoulders down toward your hips. Doing so lets you utilize more of your chest musculature and generate more force.
