From what I can see you are spinning just a bit to early, not utilizing most of the transition and therefore not getting a ton of pop. Head and body position do look okay but your body/bike will always follow your head so keep looking in the direction a bit more. Another thing that will always serve you.. go faster!!

You want to go up, you’re going to the side/forward. You’re spinning too early, let your back wheel hit the coping.
Twist your torso and look at your rear axle until you spot the landing.

It looks like you are using your hips to push the back end around, if you do that you won’t get a full rotation. Imagine standing still and jumping to 360. Your whole body moves as one. That’s the feeling you are aiming for when you leave the lip. Once you get that part, you can tuck your knees at the end to get that extra second to fully rotate if you are still coming in short.
