Thanks. I've found that by performing the follow through back to vom tag or any high guards will allow you to have a smoother and longer track during the cut. Longer track, doesn't necessarily mean slower. Because you don't have to stop dead after the cut like those Toyama Ryu practitioners do, you can actually cut by giving the sword tip more velocity in the beginning, which is essential in cutting through the target. The remaining momentum of the sword will return itself to the next guard. No need to brake to stop. Not to mention that it allows you to follow through with another yet another yet another cuts in actual combat, when the opponent can retreat and defend himself.
In the videos, there were 2 to 3 successive cuts I did through the flow, but they are made of too many frames to be made in animated gif.
I've to thank Tim Sheetz here. He taught me the flow and warned me not to rely on "single-shot-wonder" back to the beginning of 2002 from Korea. <img src="/forum/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
