Ow! my knees hurt so much from watching that vid... I hate to say this but you were definitely not ready for a lot of the stuff shown in that vid... I'll do a detailed review, but as ever I'll leave out the acro as I do not have enough knowledge on that:
0:27 that landing wa terrible! your only meant to bend your knees 90* maximum when landing anything. There you absorbed way too much through your knees at their weakest point, and then kind of slumped forwards into a roll.
0:35 if you get the chance, next time try to stick this, but at least the technique was fine.
0:41 again, that drop was way too big and it really showed in your landing. Don't bend your legs more than 90*, keep them rigid but springy and just fall forwards into the roll.
0:49 that saut de chat looked a bit awkward, try to flick your arms back more, then bring them around rather than jerking them back the way they came, the second one was fine though, and quite a good roll, maybe a tiny bit forwards when you exited it, not sure though, if it felt fine, good.
0:54 Nice underbar, try the gap above it
0:55 I liked this little bit, speed it up though. But good control on that last little jump.
0:58 again with the uncontrolled, forced rolls, to make it smoother you need more forwards momentum there, but you still kinda take the majority of the impact, then add a roll on top of that... seems a bit pointless.
1:04 nice precision, but try to control the exit a bit more
1:08 again a big drop + bad landing...
1:15 nice double tap, work on getting both arms on the top bar though, it's faster. Decent climbup and exit, but still can be improved.
1:22 not a very good saut de bras, you landed it all twisted. I know that's a mind fiddlesticks of a gap, I have not done it yet, but still, you should really try to land them properly, as it helps with climbups.
1:28 Now I know I said I'll leave acro out, but I would not put that into a 'sponsor vid' as it looks messy and almost like just a pissabout..
1:29 where's the climbup?
1:32 I would not have used a speed there, thats a prety big drop even for a saut de chat, which is a better vault for landing from heights. and that second vault, the climbup one, you coulda popped up it instead of trying to get a leg up it. Then it finished off with yet another big drop where you bent your legs a bit too much.
1:45 nice speed.
1:47 again, very nice.
1:49 really liked this little run, well done, maybe the exit from the underbar was a bit sketchy, but really nice nonetheless.
1:55 argh, more huge drops...
1:59 nice precision
2:01 omg.. no... but your landing there was a bit better ironically enough. but still... no!
2:14 that had gotta hurt... I don't really need to say how bad the landing was there
3:22 that was actually really well executed, well done.
2:19 you could have cleared the whole thing
2:22 nice angle and nice technique there, not too sure about landing on the front leg though.. good control, both of you.
2:25 way too forwards...
2:27 looked nice.
2:29 the fish eye made that shot look nice.
2:33 sheesh straight you can't move after that... terrible landing.
2:35 training in tight jeans? hmm... and the roll was way too forwards.
2:41 not bad..
2:54 not really sure about that final shot, kinda hesitant pose lol, like you landed, then you hesitated, then you went into it lol, make it smoother.
