Review AC DVD

Postby Toby » Tue Jul 27, 2004 12:16 pm

Yesterday I received the new action DVD AC, which Rob and Pete from Fat Sand Production sent to me for a review.

Already their instructional DVD "Progression" was excellent, so it was interesting to see, what the guys made out of their action project.

The DVD features action by Mark Doyle, Aaron Hadlow, Mark Shinn and Renier Olivier.

It has been shot in different locations, such as South Africa, Teneriffa, Puerte Rico, El Coche and during the Kite Show in Hurghada.

Different camera angles have been used, and the helicopter scene is just great!

Expect tons of moves, of course many types of handle passes, but also kite loops, board-offs etc.

Renier Olivier did an amazing jump, just in chapter 1: big air airpass, followed by a 5 times rotation, since he catched a great gust. Amazing jump!

Doyle's Kite loops look excellent, and all riders have a very smooth and elegant style.

So far the best action DVD I have seen, since also the music is nicely selected.

A good DVD if you want to see more than 50% of handlepasses in all jumps they film.
very well shot, nice action and good music. It's a peatty they miss the ambience sounds.
A fair CD to me.
I've watched better ones already.

I agree with mergulhao, I think is a fair CD as well. One thing that I like a lot is that there were lots of riders I didn't know compare to other videos that always show the same riders.
