Better for sure. Left foot is still a bit wild and causing you to be off balance (body snake). You are kicking deeper than you need to, small and steady is better unless its a 200 free or less. Elbows dropping a little. Strokemaker paddles and zoomers/swim fins will help. Using both at the same time might smooth you out a bit.

overall pretty good, looking strong in the water.

Areas to work on would be
- keeping the left arm straighter, at the moment it drifts down to the outside, this will put strain on your shoulders long term
- little rushed at the front end of the arm catch, could slow that down that bit
- kicking, wow, you're really kicking up a storm there, if you can get comfortable with easing that off a touch it will keep HR and and O2 usage down.

Just my 2 cents...
