What @Steve Freides already said.
Elbows locked is really important. Also you could try to keep your hips even more rigid. Keep an posterior pelvic tilt troughout the whole movement (i.e. don't let your back arch at any time).
Here's what you could do to fix all:
Hang with an supinated grip (underhand). This will eliminate a lot of hip swing. Then try to lift your legs as high while keeping a posterior pelvic tilt. Don't bother if you dont reach all the way up. Hanging leg raises done strictly and correctly are a very hard exercise that only very few people can do in the double digit rep zone.
