I got this DVD hoping that I could learn something from it to help my riding and hopefully go a bit quicker on the road.
This DVD is good in showing you how to be smooth, picking the turning points and using good throttle control.
James Whitham shows these 3 guys how to get faster around this selected circuit and it makes you think that you could do with him at every track you go to for trackdays... and you can because I've seen him instructing at "Focused Events trackdays."
He does get them going quicker with his advice and techniques, and the 3 riders are at different levels of riding for you to relate to. James is good but I don't think his explanation of techniques and what he wants them to do is very well translated. That meaning, that when he's describing something he relates to "go like this, and do this" in a broad Yorkshire accent. Hence it's not like Keith Codes Twist of the wrist DVD which teaches you the technologies of riding and you input effects handling, suspension, balance & grip, thus making you quicker. Don't get me wrong I'd love to have James's one on one teachings at a track but that side of it doesn't come across in this film. Maybe if he does another film it will. Enjoy.

A good series that leaves you wanting more.
It would be easy to describe this dvd as repetitive and a bit slow moving, but once you get into it, it's very enjoyable. Read more
