Just a small review:


I just got my DVD two days ago and I love it- after reviewing the first lesson a few times I realized I was going about trying to spin it in a totally wrong way, it looked very jerky and not fluid at all. After checking out hand movements and how to hold the saber I was able to finally able to get the basic spin down, trying the more advanced lessons this weekend.


Thanks for the great DVD Anakin!

Hello, Mr. Anakin. Is there any chance that your spin DVDs will be included in a package with the new NovaCaine martial arts saber DVDs, or must we still order them separately? It'd be nice to get them all in one fell swoop and segue from spins to martial arts afterward. ^_^

Funny that you mention that...

Anakin and us are working something out...and that is all that I am going to say at the moment until the details are finalized.

I feel that this spin tutorial DVD is ESSENTIAL for ANY saberplayer and that if you order our DVD, you need to order Anakin's as a supplement. It will only complete your saberplay skills.

Thank you, sir. Perhaps there are really no such things as coincidences after all...

Yes definitely everyone here who wants to use not just build and display sabers should definitely get this 5-star tutorial DVD just as they should Caine and Novastar's new one when it comes out...i found this to complement Caine's original DVD nicely and am sure it will continue to be an excellent purchase for saber newcomers...as Siskel and Ebert used to say; two thumbs way up.

I'm following this now, and waiting for the update on the package DVD set.
I think I can use some dualling skills myself, seeing what some can do with their sabers.

While at Star Wars Celebration V, I met Ray Park and while getting his autograph. I gave him a copy of my DVD.

I told him that I know that he can't learn anything from it, but I wanted to show him what he helped inspire me to do to help others out there get more out of their sabers

[Darth Matth]

Now that is really cool, giving lessons to Mr. Maul.
Do you want him to get better skilled and kill Obi too?

That's dope, Paul!  :)  I'm still looking forward to getting together someday (or at least doing a phone call) regarding getting our stuff all "together", heheh.

Also... you shouldn't think too much about whether or not person X, Y or Z (or Ray Park) can or cannot learn from your work.  Ray Park is a martial artist... which means he HAS BEEN a student... and (depending on his perspective) that means he will probably always BE a student.  :)

I find myself learning from all sorts of people, of all ages, from all walks of life... as long as I keep an open mind.  I mean, really... take "tricking" as an example.  I'm an OLD MAN compared to a lot of the "kids" I trick with... and they are all *WAAAAAAY* better than me.

So... not to de-rail, but... in my silly little eyes: the student IS the master... and the master is the student--and vice-versa... always.  :)

Sounds like my mentor's take on the Beginner's Mind. :)

Great point Nova...afterall at the end of ROTS even the GrandMaster of the Order himself became a humble Padawan again of Qui Gon.

*in Yoda voice* If 900 years old you reach, still something to learn there will be ummhmm?

I'm still debating on if I will put a label on the DVD disc itself as I fear it might interfere with the playing of the DVD.

I wouldn't. I've had more problems with labels than with scratches... Computers hate 'em. I think Liteon makes a drive that will etch  your dvd - I think that would be a much more elegant solution. Andthe drive itself is cheap ($25 or so)
