---- Duncan’s “A New Level” DVD ---- Well around a week ago I bought this DVD for myself, and I figured I’d review it for all the people wondering if they should buy this DVD too. Is it worth it? How many tricks does it show? Is it gonna be a rip-off? Here’s your answer; The DVD Teaches you a variety of tricks that are pretty advanced, but not quite as much as the DVD advertises. Half the DVD is just the Duncan crew showing off, but I found this quite entertaining, and was able to use my DVD’s slow-mo feature to watch the tricks at a speed where I could figure them out. Sorry for all you 2A players, this DVD teaches advanced tricks for every style except 2-handed looping. Here are the tricks you learn: Three 1A tricks; \*Fury Cake (For the record this is one of Takeshi’s tricks and it is pure awesome) \*Casino (A trick centered around the chop-sticks style of play) \*Gold and Silver sleeves (Another Chopsticks thingy :P) Two 3A tricks; \*Fake Blue-line rolls (This is a very cool and innovative trick in my opinion) \*Hank’s favorite Combo (This is a variation on velvet rolls, which you have to know already before you can learn this trick) Two 4A tricks; \*Tube disaster (Cool trick, but what the heck is a tube disaster??) \*Reflection (I really like this one. Fun to do and cool to see. Great trick) Two 5A tricks; \*Super-hyper-magic-twirly bird (A.K.A. Helicopter. Not a complex trick but quite hard and it looks amazing) \*Grip stall (This is a variation of the counterweight-stall. It starts from a Double or nothing and has a cool move at the end as well) \*Later in the DVD you learn a couple of variations on both 5A tricks. I also want to point out that the tutorials are very descriptive and pretty easy to understand, plus you get to watch the tricks on a big Television rather than some little Youtube screen. So what do I think of this DVD? Well, at first I was disappointed because it only teaches a little over 9 tricks, but after I was able to learn extra stuff from watching the “music montages”, I was pretty satisfied. I got some good laughs out of the whole thing too. So I guess if you want a video like “Yomega mania” that teaches you somewhere between 100 to 200 tricks, this isn’t your kinda DVD. If you want a video that’s 50% Yo-Yo related entertainment and 50% Awesome trick tutorials in 4 different styles, this is definitely your kinda DVD :wink: (Replies and Feedback on this review are greatly appreciated) ---
