Be careful that you don't look (or sound) like two soloists. This is a very visual piece and it has more effect if both players make similar movements and don't try to upstage each other.
Also, it seems a bit frantic - the tempo itself is okay, but it was constantly pushing forward to the point that I was just waiting for it to fall apart, whether or not you guys felt that way at any point. Just let it groove.
Nice work!
