Your stance, is way too wide, very much like a sumo stance (you seem to like this stance) But in all seriousness, maybe there is something preventing you from a more narrow stance, do you have any lower back issues, hips, etc?
A stance that is too wide can be a cause for hip, knee, or ankle issues but also removes the ability to perform a good hip hinge where the knees bend and the hips are pushed back. A stance too wide can also reduce optimal force generation.
Solution
Obtain the narrowest stance possible while still comfortably being able to move the kettlebell(s) through the legs. When working with two kettlebells the stance needs to be a lot wider but again, only as wide as is required to allow the weights to pass through without obstruction. With a single kettlebell, the legs should just be wide enough apart for the kettlebell to pass through. The feet should not be excessively pointing out to the side and more straight than out to the side. With that said, a comfortable stance needs to be found and if none can be obtained that is close to what’s required then mobility needs to be addressed.
Description
A stance too wide for a clean, swing, or snatch can be identified by it looking like a Sumo stance or simply being too wide for the intended response. For a clean, swing, or snatch where the movement that brings the kettlebell in motion is a squat this issue may not apply as the path of the kettlebell is a hybrid between backswing and a hang..
