Thanks. I was happiest with that attempt of all my lifts, especially given how poorly my 1st attempt went.

Am I wrong that you can basically power clean your clean weights, at least the 1st two? Looks like you're catching pretty high and I'm not sure why you're full squatting.

I feel like I can get under the bar quicker and receive it to the rack position and in a more stable position if I don't have to worry about standing up very quickly/harshly. The stability is difficult to describe, but full cleans are much easier if you can front squat the same weight easily. I was (rightfully) only really thinking about my limiting jerk the whole time and it's much easier for me to do what I do when I train, which 95% of the time is full cleans.
I would also guess that I can power clean the last C+J weight (112kg/247lbs) like 80% of the time consistently, clean it 95% of the time consistently and front squat it 99% of the time.
