Soccer - FIFA World Cup Vol 3 - 1978 - 1986
Released in DVD by Reedswain (01 September, 2003)
MPAA Rating:
Average review score:

FROM THE AUTHOR
An emotionally charged tournament in Argentina where the Dutch came up just short again against the home team in 1978. Italy played with great skill and discipline in 1982 to beat the exceptional Argentinians, Brazilians and Germans. 1986 brought one of the finest tournaments in history and the genius of Maradona as Argentina swept through to the Final where they met the masters of pressure West Germany.

US Soccer's Proudest Moment
Whether you stayed up till the wee hours of the morning to watch our first match of the 2002 World Cup against HEAVILY favored Portugal, who at the time were ranked 4th in the world, or not, this DVD is a must for any supporter of real Football. Re-live us going 3 nil up on the Portugeese as Figo and company could do nothing, Clint Mathis' settling then hammering of our first strike that temporarily silenced the partisan Korean crowd, the EXPECTED thrashing of Mexico, (we've been running them ragged since the early 90's), and the heartache of the wrongly disallowed goal we put in against Germany that sent us home, (thanks Hugh Dallas, grrr). There was a match vs. Poland too, aparently...I think, (-; ...it's here as well and it looks like we lost that one??? (The cover of this DVD has Landon Donovan celebrating a goal against the Poles that was called off-sides! Oops).
Arena, Donovan, Reyna, Friedel and company laid the Fluke of '98 to rest, making this DVD worth every cent to Americans who love the beautiful game. Now we have to follow through by qualifying for Germany '06 and doing better than 2002. Come on you boys in white!!!


Terrafirma 7 - Project MX
Released in DVD by Red Distribution, In (02 July, 2002)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Starring: Ricky Carmichael
Average review score:

~Wicked Awesome~
Being a big fan of riders such as Ricky Carmichael and Travis Pastrana, I was pretty stoked when I heard Fox released a new dvd for the Terrafirma series. If you are a fan of RC, just the extra feature on the dvd "Kids on the couch" is worth the whole thing. Footage of RC, Travis, and James Stewart from childhood was hilarious. The feature presentation was awesome too, showing new fmx moves from all the faves and some new stuff from Loretta Lynn Nationals is pretty cool. Cool for big Mx fans or little ones!!!


To' - Day of Days (White Knuckle Extreme)
Released in DVD by Image Entertainment (22 April, 2003)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Starring: Laird Hamilton
Average review score:

TO' Day of Days
TO' Day of Days is the blow by blow account of this history making day in the sport of surfing. Not only was the worlds greatest big wave surfer on hand to ride the "heaviest wave ever ridden" (Surfer Mag), the worlds greatest surfing cinematographer was there to record what happened. Jack McCoy's documentary is unlike Laird's personal DVD LAIRD (of which footage from this day is included). TO' is the complete story of this epic surfing trip. The film follows Lairds first trip to Tahiti with his tow surfing, longboarding, foil surfing, the warm up, and concludes with the Day of Days. I personally showed this program around Australia as a Surfrider fundraiser to hundreds of surfers and non surfers alike who were in awe of Lairds amazing feat and McCoy's storytelling. You can show this to anyone and they will be rivited. On top of that the Special Features section has another 50 minutes of extra material. By far the most awsome footage of Laird doing what he does in found in the short film in this section called "The Morning Glass". The underwater bodysurfing sequence is some of the most amazing surfing footage ever taken. Along with the other bonus shorts "Aftershock", interviews with Laird and DD and a Midnight Oil track, this DVD is a must for anyone who can appreciate extreme sport's and the ocean.

A Great Help!
I just bought this dvd yesterday and what can I say, It is such a big help. Todd really shows you how to initiate your spins lay down the grabs, as well as have fun on the hill. It's great to see him and J2 out there showin you how to lay down the big moves like a pro. This dvd really helped me and I can't wait to try the moves on the hill! Everyone who wants to be a good snowboarder should buy this dvd!


Tony Hawk's Gigantic Skatepark Tour 2001
Released in DVD by Red Distribution, In (10 September, 2002)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Starring: Tony Hawk
Average review score:

Can anything gigantic really be bad?
Wow. What a tour. The skating in this video is just sick. There's nothing so mind blowing that you'll never see something similar elsewhere, but there is definitely some progressive, creative, and overall ridiculous skating.

The lineup of skaters is awesome, with Mike Vallely, Bam Margera, Eric Koston, and of course, Tony Hawk, along with a mess of other pros and ams. You don't really get to see them at their best because of it being a demo atmosphere, where you don't get 6 months to test stuff out and film until you get it right, but there's still tons of worthwhile stuff in there.

If you just like human interest shows you'll enjoy it too. You get to see the stress touring causes both mentally and physically, as well as what they do on their days off (paintball, bowling, skating empty pools, ATV racing).

With 2 dvd's, its about 6 hours of film, and I watched it straight through without getting bored once. Its really a worthwhile purchase if you're a fan of skateboarding.


Tony Hawk's Trick Tips, Vol. 3: Secrets of Skateboarding
Released in DVD by Ventura Distribution (01 October, 2002)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Starring: Tony Hawk
Average review score:

Rockin' it oldskool with Tony and Mike V!
Now here's a retro twist on skateboarding instructional videos. A big grab bag of oldskool cool! Street tricks include: ollie grabs, half-cabs, ollie north, late shove-it, ollie finger flip, impossible, boneless, no-comply, pressure flips, street plants, acid drops, and bomb drops. Seeing these tricks again, expecially on a modern-day skate video, makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. I grew up on this stuff! The take home message: If it's fun, even if it's old, go for it!!!

The section with Bucky Lasek is a natural progression from the mini ramp skating we saw in the first two videos. This time the guys are out on a true vert ramp. Vert tricks include: dropping in, frontside airs, backside airs, air to fakie, fakie ollie, half-cab, rock to fakie, rock n' roll, inverts, and frontside tailslides.

Extras include: a lunch break with Tony (watch him scarf 6 hotdogs on a stick hehe), a parking lot session with Mike V, and the game of S-K-A-T-E pitting Tony vs. Bucky on the vert ramp. I had fun watching this DVD. I hope they put out at least one more, perhaps one that would focus on some advanced vert tricks like backside and frontside 540's, varials, flips, and maybe even 900's? Wuhahhahahhaha!


True Fans
Released in DVD by (26 July, 1999)
MPAA Rating:
Director: Dan Austin
Average review score:

Become a True Fan!
True Fans is proof positive that heroes really do exist and they're often disguised as ordinary people. It helps to have a lot of faith in humanity, as Dan Austin, his brother Jared and his best friend Clint do as they ride their bikes from California to Massachusetts to the Basketball Hall of Fame. Along for the ride is an official NBA Basketball, on which the guys gather the autographs of the ordinary heroes who help them on their pilgrimage-and when you only have $10 a day to spend, you're putting a lot of faith in the kindness of others. Oh, and by the way, the film's a lot of fun too. Not only did I laugh out loud, but I was mostly inspired by Dan's positive attitude and his "Just Do It" mentality. Buy True Fans and see where the Hero's Ball ends up! This film won the Banff Mountain Film Festival's People's Choice Award and was a favorite at other festivals around the world.
