small drum starting point
- YoK: great speed, good slowdown, slow to catch R2 R3 during slowdown
- KS: good speed, 2nd R of ji late due to wrist position after strike, slow to catch R3 during slowdown
- RT: good speed, great feel, difficulty following slowdown
- TA: ji tsukutsu uncertain, difficulty following slowdown
- HO: ji tsukutsu uncertain, path of L uncertain, great slowdown
- BH: ji tsukutsu timing uncertain, slowdown poor: missed R2 R3 R4
- DH: ji sticking unknown, trying too fast, slowdown poor: unable to match any R
- AB: good feel (nice volume), good understanding of comfort zone (speed), tsukutsu timing occasionally rushed occasionally mis-spaced, slowdown good
- JY: good feel (nice volume), good understanding of comfort zone (speed), missed R2 but recovered
- MH: first hit too accented, a little "wild", decent slowdown
- SI: L uncertain (height, wrist position), missed R2 R3 but recovered
- EL: tsukutsu late, L uncertain (height, prep), good slowdown
- SN: good feel, slightly "boundy", just need to "dig in" (confidence), decent slowdown, but slowdown happens by adding gaps at end of ten tsukutsu ken instead of through whole phrase
- WD: timing of "ken" uncertain, good slowdown
