There isn't anyone that can't use more reps and some polish on their technique. If you didn't, you'd be featured on ancient aliens as the only decedent of nibiru on Earth (ALIENS!) You admitted when things were sloppy in the video multiple times. I think that proves you're not normally that loose with the techniques. Again, get that dude to stretch then put it on him.
Great job on the video. You definitely demonstrated a lot of knowledge on the system. You proved you study hard and are working on applying the techniques with increased perfection after every rep. I'd like to see some rolling also but you seem to be well on your way to getting your blue on knowledge alone. Keep up the hard work no matter what happens and good luck.
