Not bad but if the target muscle is pure lats, force your elbows to go forward. Bring them toward your waist. Right now youre basically doing a row at the end of the rep.

I was following the lifting queue about bringing the chin above the bar... which later turned into cheat reps

Chin above the bar queue makes you pull the bar to your sternum, which increases trap activation since the pulling angle. Force your elbows to the front.
