I would point out that there are at least five differnet styles/schools of shorin ryu taught in Okinawa. This version of Passai was the version taught by Toma Sensei.
Ah yes! This is my 2nd fav. kata (right after seisan) I had to learn it at yellow to get blue RIGHT BEFORE SENSEI BUMPED IT UP TO BROWN REQUIREMENT! ^GRRRR!* Oh well, at least I was ahead of the curb!
You kinda rushed through the beginning and end. Makes it look as if you are vervous. That's not how I usually see Passai done, but it's okay. If you want to see a true Passai, you need to see my Shihan (Master Instructor) do it.
He is a master at what he does

This looks like a combination of our Paisai Sho and Paisai Dai. (Shorin ryu Matsamura Seito)

I've done seidokan karate and this kata is exactly identical to the passai san kata we do.

This kata is similar to Shorinji Ryu Renshikan's Bassai

Strange version of Bassai Dai. Seems okay, but I think the way you 'normally' see it is stronger.
