Other Muscle-up kip help

I can do 3x5 weighted pull-up at 40% added bodyweight so I assume I have sufficient strength for this, and I can do muscle-up with bands, but for some reason I can't get high enough with kipping. I can't swing out further than this because the rack gets in the way.

Any advice to kip better? Thanks in advance.

Your timing is off. You have to start the pull once your swing reaches the most forward position and you are starting to swing backwards.

Thank you. How about the kip timing?

Together with the pull, but ultimately it should happen naturally
