Don't get it, Douglas is a pimp but he's peddling some seriously sheisty merchandise, that video sucks. That is unless you find it useful to be told stuff like '360 + 360 = 720'.

OK, I bought this movie, since i'm not that good and thought that this would help me progress. Mike Douglas is cool, but in this movie, it looks like he has a stick jammed up his ass throughout the whole thing. They don't even say a word about railslides either. They teach you how to do on-snow 180, 180, switch 180, 360, 540, etc. They also teach you a couple of grabs. they don't really teach it well though. it's like this: 'OK, to do a 720, you spin two complete rotations in the air. just set your spin harder than you would for a 540, spin twice in the air, spot your landing, and ride it out.' It's not worth the $20. Just go out and buy Happy Dayz and Stereotype, and learn from watching those. The best way to learn everything but rails is by
1.) skiing
2.) getting a tramp
3.) just screwing around on diving boards
4.) the best way to learn is summer camps if you have the money.

Just don't buy this movie.

it's true man, he explains a mute grab and then he says something like 'now I know this is going to sound a little crazy at first but...' A mute grab for christ sakes!
