Pull ups · Awesome! Hybrid Calisthenics

Pull ups

here are a couple of videos. The one that isn't banded is as far up as I can go and where I am at the top of this movement is where I feel stuck. But it doesn't even feel like a strength issue, it feels like something else, almost like a blockage?! A physio said I have a shoulder impingement but it only hurts in certain positions and when I do negatives. I've asked AI too, and it says it I am not doing the active hang part right, but I do feel as though I am pulling my shoulder blades as far down and back as I can, but it's obviously not enough. I try those Y to W shoulder stretches and feel it moves more then, but I'm obviously not under a heavy load! I ended up practicing pike press handstands instead as I started feeling very deflated!!
