I've got some tips for you skyhawk,

your left hand grip is too close to the center of the stick, scoot farther toward the butt end of the stick. Also, you need to let the stick rebound off of the drum more. Try to control the rebound the drum gives you.

EDIT: After watching it again, i have this to say...
your left hand is angled too far upward. Try to get more parallel with the drum. Also, you need to let your arm into your technique more. Try watching some SCV videos on youtube to get the idea of what I'm talking about.
