Yea, I'm excited to see what you put together bro! It'll be fun to take aspects of your reverse grip and add it into my routines! This may sound stupid, but I am taking a Jedi approach to the "Sith Shien" application that Starkiller uses and creating a lightside application. I'm calling it "Sentinel Shien" and it utilizes a normal grip and executes quick, aggressive strikes and being completely unpredictable. This application also requires the user of SS to be strong in one-handed combat with the off hand primarily for an anchor on power strikes. There is also an emphasis on using components of Soresu in Sentinel Shien. I prolly won't post anything on this unless someone is actually interested, but I do feel a tad more special to "create" my own application of various lightsaber Forms  dude, i'm ALWAYS interested. post something, definitely.

Not bad mate, i like how you change it up, i still have to work on that bloody behind the back spin, i forsee using reverse grip a lot more in the near future with my dominix simply because of how easly it naturally fits in the hand compared to my guardian.
Do another one in the dark wiith the blade lit ^_^

Looks pretty smooth, now translating that to sparring is the hard part... If I watched you duel I could tell much more... but I already know right now I would try and wait for you to be mid grip switch, and I would possibly be able to make you falter if I attacked during that time.
That being said, that's a lot of "ifs" and ifs are always iffy.
So it definitely looks good, just remember when you're practicing by yourself... Imagine there are people actually attacking you.

Excellent man! Looks real good and with practice man you're only gonna get better and better!
Sweet man, I'm glad you're interested! I will post something in the near future for Sentinel Shien once I've gotten stronger going one handed and at least got one kata to show you guys! Though I did get to duel with my brother a little tonight and it went well...but hot damn am I gonna get some full padded gloves...My MMA gloves aren't covering my fingertips all the way lol.
