Great videos Tony. Thanks for posting them.
I do always get a kick out of the moronic turds that insist on making their uninformed comments to videos like this.

I believe that was 1999 and no I wasn't there. At that time we were with Iha sensei.

That is the version from Miyahira's ShiDoKan dojo. You don't see that one

The footwork on whatever he is doing on what looked like the age hijiate at the 12 second mark looked really different. I don't understand that bow legged squat on the balls of your feet thingy.
The basic embussen and most of the technques are like Matsumura Seito but a few of the postures are really different.
