About this item

Product Description TWITCH V contains two videos for the price of one, TWITCH V, and the original TWITCH. TWITCH V won the Best Professional category at the 2005 National Paddling Film Festival. Highlights include Tao's run of the 350' Lacy Falls in Canada that appeared on NBC's Jeep World of Adventure Sports. There are many first descents of huge waterfalls in the US (Alaska, Washington), Canada, and Argentina. Also, TWITCH V introduces Wake Boating, which is playboating in the breaking wave formed by two wake boats driving side by side. The first TWITCH video started it all. Tao's first world record run of the 81' Cascada Tomata in Veracruz as well as Big Timber Creek in Montana, playboating under the tubes at the Upper Gauley Dam, and lots of other footage from Mexico, US, and Canada. There is also a documentary on Tao Berman by Omid Amjadi called Fearless, that helps you understand Tao better. Review Get ready to grip your remote as tightly as featured paddlers Tao Berman, marco Colella, Gavin Murdoch, and Ben Selznick grip their paddles. Sub-titled "Just another (sic) flick," TWITCH reveals an enormous itch to drop vertical. Unique footage includes New River Gorge base jumping and painful-to-watch, forced-to-bail-mid-descent snow kayaking in Montana. These boys rallied all over North America and demonstrate the importance of everything from clearing a boof-move on Montana's Big Timber Creek to smoothly hucking a "Vertigo" end-to-end on Canada's Ottawa River. Like themovie's star paddles, the videographer's style is on the edge, accentuating one drop so well in MTV-esque, slo-mo black-and-white that it will surely cause white knuckles to hit the rewind button. Putting first descents and possible world records aside, the crew puts in some time flat cartwheelin' below the Summersville Dam. The ante is still high, however, due to the powerful releases spraying over the tips of these adrenaline-raged, end-swapping boaters (Twitchers?). It's hard to imagine what's next after watching TWITCH, but one thing's certain: it's easier to drop cash into owning a copy than it is to drop anything these guys did. -- Paddler Magazine, November/December, 1999 From the Contributor I always say that each TWITCH video is my last. Well, I've said it five times now. These guys just keep finding and running stuff that makes my jaw drop. I won't make another TWITCH video if I don't think it will be as good or better than the last TWITCH video. If you like waterfall kayaking, I think you'll agree that TWITCH V is incredible. About the Actor Eric Link, TWITCH video producer, has made five TWITCH videos available on DVD. Two TWITCHes (contains two videos), TWITCH IV, and TWITCH V (contains two videos). He also produced "Staying Alive", which is a Swiftwater Rescue Techniques instructional video sponsored and used by Rescue 3 International.
