it depends, is that as far back as you go? If so, you are most likely flagging out when you try to clear the bar, or at the very least you arent getting your maximum push.
But if your hips keep moving after that point and you get completely connected with the pole, you are doing well.
Either way, you want your legs together at that point in the vault with your toes pulled toward you. It also looks like you might be looking at the bar as well. If so, you are going to have to loose sight of it, or at least be comortable with loosing sight of it for jumps in the future. If you focus on it, you are likely to come out early.

The greater the challenge, the more glorious the triumph
