Clip from 2008 US taikai

http://youtu.be/zkMvD53Z6BY
I thought I would share a link to this clip, not only because it shows the grandmaster in action but because you can see the technique Ko-Kuh or "Empty Sky," performed right at the beginning of the clip.  Later in the clip, just over a minute in, the technique Dan-Shu is shown, among many others.  These two are of note because they are both shodan (1st degree black belt) techniques in the ninpo taijustu system and it can be difficult to find them being performed properly, if at all.
