DVD Reviews of Twist of the Wrist
DVD Review: 1980s Training
Summary: 4 Stars
When this film was made in 1985 there was so little information about riding, everything it contains was new to most riders back then. So much more is known now on how to ride and there are many better ways to film them. What amazed me when I looked at it again recently was the things it shows that were never intended in the original script. Looking at the things I would change about it was really helpful in making the Twist, Vol II book into a more powerful rider communication. The new DVD is light years ahead for sure but I don't think it would have been as good without the understanding that was gained from the original. The first one is really corny, I have to laugh when I think about it. The only good thing is that all the points it covers still apply to riding. I have no regrets on making it and I'm always very happy when people write me and tell me that it helped them see more about riding. I don't love it but I still like it.

DVD Review: Of Very Little Use and Incredibly Tough to Watch
Summary: 1 Stars
I'll go further than most and say this is pretty useless, even for beginners. Showing racing lines in overhead shots is better done watching Speed Channel. The concentration needed to ride is discussed, and worthy of about 2 minutes explanation. You would expect more about techniques, and maybe some stuff taught at the schools. This DVD, rightly or wrongly, made me decide NOT to go to Keith Code school.DVD Review: Other reviews aren't for this product
Summary: 5 Stars
Please note----the other reviews listed are not even for the audio set.
If there are better audio or video training materials done better---sure wish someone would post titles.
Keith Code has provided better than good information for the motorcycling community for a long time. He and the Califoria Super Bike School are still doing a great job on a big scale.
DVD Review: Twist of the Wrist
Summary: 3 Stars
This video was informative; but it was very dated. Circa early 1980s. I have subsequently taken a couple training courses which cover newer material and techniques. Not negating the TotW video; but buyers should be informed that the video is dated. It also lacks clarity and focus on a couple points in that the dramatization and attempts at "humor" obscure the technical points they are making.
It is precisely what you should expect out of a 1980's motorcycle superbike training school that appears to have self produced a video for the first time.
I paid ~$24 with shipping and think the video is worth about half that price.
DVD Review: Time to update...
Summary: 2 Stars
I love the series of books but this DVD falls down. The material and footage is dated. The shots do not nearly go far enough to take advantage of really letting us see what is being discussed. When this was shot that was probably due to equipment limitations. It is really, realllly time to update this with much more extended and closer footage. This medium could be the icing on the cake for the series but it's really more the box you throw away to get to the books...
