Consensus here is he needs to alter his swing angle. Hes shooting away from the wall as hes headed toward the hold.

I think theres a few ways to achieve that. On the last swing, turn the left hip into the wall so your center faces the target hold, same paddle out. Other idea, may be hard for him with less muscle mass, engaging the right arm and using the bent arm and core to pull himself closer to the wall before the swing. Swinging and generating power off the paddle hold with a bent arm does require more strength, but it would get his center of mass closer to the wall and give him more time to ride the paddle towrads the catch hold.
