Editorial Reviews
From the Actor
If you have taken a Rescue 3 Training class, you wll find this DVD extremely helpful in reviewing your rescue skills. I always seem to forget how to tie certain knots and how to set up a "Pig Rig", this DVD explains it all so easily.
From the Director
This video contains footage of Tao's world record waterfall descent of 98.4ft or 30 meters. As of this writing TWITCH 2000 is so new, it hasn't been reviewed, but it's been selling like crazy. So I'll take that as a compliment.
About the Actor
Eric Link, TWITCH video producer, has produced five waterfall kayaking videos available on DVD: Two TWITCHes (contains two videos), TWITCH IV, and TWITCH V (contains two videos).

Life At Its Fullest
This is a GREAT whitewater video! It is especially exciting to see a woman, Shannon, doing these hair raising moves. I held my breath during her rescue with the rope.Tao's record breaking waterfall descent was another TWITCH y moment. Also liked the magnificent scenery.
Sweet Video!
This is a great video to watch some insane water fall running and creek boating. Very well produced.
Redefining what can be done in a kayak
This is the kind of video that makes you feel like a wuss the next time you go boating. Even non-boating friends will watch this and not think you are weird for liking it.
