OK, so the left hip flexor ability is a problem. Also bilaterally he does not have any gluteal control. You can see this because he shifts his body weight over the standing leg when lifting the opposite one off the floor. The pelvis on the swing side should actually drop slightly but this requires contralateral stability which he does not have.
As mentioned in my first post, this looks like a proximal hip/pelvis stability issue as a primary place to start. He needs to be able to lift the knee towards the chest without shifting the trunk to towards the standing leg.
Look forward to see some longer walking in a corridor or outside preferably with a tight t-shirt on so we can see the trunk movement
