My Sensei films all the Udansha gradings, and as a gift he gives each of the grading students a copy of thier grading. That was a real eye opener for me. It's funny how you can see yourself doing techniques in your mind, yet what u produce in reality it is different.

I've actually got two tapes. One of my Shodan grading which I am grateful for, plus I have a copy of one of my kohai's gradings which I did ukemi in. It's interesting to see actually, my ukemi ain't that great now but during the 6 months between the 2 tapes you can see the improvement, which is encouraging.
