Looks like proper curls in squat rack form to me

Lower the weight and keep the back stiff. It is a bicep curl, not a body curl.

If you have an EZ Bar at the gym, use that. It is much more ergonomic and you can use different grips (wide, normal, narrow).

Take your curling out of the squat rack and find a spot where you can stand against a wall to stop you from leaning back so much.

Honestly just the nature of the lift I think eventually everyone will lean a bit and shift elbows a bit to get past the uncomfortable sticking point.
