Pedal is not even all the way down and the leg is already overextended. Ankle is stretching to reach the pedal. Hips are visibly rocking because foot will not make it to bottom of pedal stroke without tilting hips.

So now you have yet another opinion that the saddle is too high. How sure am I? Not at all. Even if you posted a video I'd not be sure. Only way to know is to ride with you. I'd not give a nickel to a fitter who does not include a ride. And then your fit could be real different early and late in the ride. In competition you could sit different than when cruising.

What you need is expert eyes in someone who does know you and does ride with you. If that is not available time to experiment. First experiment I'd do would be saddle down a full inch. Bring the 'bars down together with the saddle. If that doesn't work you do not have to listen to me and you can send the saddle right back up. The advice is worth what you paid.
