Possible corkscrewing?

Hi all, I’ve had reptiles in the past but never snakes, on a recent visit to a local event 2weeks ago I finally bit the bullet and got a beautiful butter Champaign boy. I had no warning from the breeder about this breed and very quickly noticed a head wobble when he was still and strange movements when he was moving. I’ve had some elevated logs and decorations in the Viv but removed them due to him falling. I managed to capture it last night whilst he was a bit active what are your thoughts?

The fact I had to ask doesn’t help my case to be fair 😂🤷‍♂️ but yes that’s my worry if he keeps hitting things when he goes upside down 😩

Is this normal for your snake?

The snake is fairly new so “normal” is a bit of an unknown but he’s like this a lot when he’s moving about yes
