Why was he landing at 80kts? They are one of the easiest aircraft to land out there.
That video reminds me of the time I watched a Mooney doing circuits at Camden, pilot insisted on constantly landing too fast and was forcing the nosewheel down first every landing. How there wasn't a propstrike I don't know.
It's really not that hard to set up a landing, hit the correct airspeed on short final, aim and flare when you get there.
