Form can't be improved by swinging your shinai madly in the air. Form is impoved by hitting your opponent.

So much for the iaido approach hu?

We do alot of suburi (sometimes to fast), but when we do our endurance suburi, its really more about not quitting, and giving in to yourself. This is good for the spirit...alot like kakarigeiko in some ways. I agree completely with the form over speed theme though, it drives me up the wall watching students swinging all over trying to keep up...
