Very nice.
I agree with Aodz, that BTB catch was pretty nice.
Bunch of other good stuff in there too, good variety of moves worked into your flow.
Keep it up.

BTB = behind the back as in you do something behind your back
single hand moves. you isolated one handne stick is behind your back so you only see one stick.
come out to a glowshop you can learn much

first great first video, and awesome song choice.
if i were to give you some advice i would say just slow down, and try to move with the music a bit more. this will really help with flow, and flow is really what will make you look good. i know a kid that has maybe 4 moves he knows but he came from a dance background so his flow is amazing and he looks awesome just because of that.
near the end there you did some popping like dancing for a bit, try to incorporate stuff like that into your sticking more instead of just little micro steps side to side. that is a particular thing that almost everyone seems to do at the beginning. where you lift one leg up and shift your weight but then step right back into the same spot, try to catch yourself when you do this and break the habit now, the longer you do it the harder it will be to break. a quick rule could be if you go to step then change positions. this will make your sticking more dynamic and multi-dimensional as well. i guess just be aware of what your body is doing as well as what the sticks are doing. most people put all their attention on the sticks and forget about the body when they are first starting out, i know i did. watch some dance videos on youtube if you need some inspiration.
