if they are teaching the wrong moves, then how are they stealing the moves if what they are teaching is different?? mabee that's why devo didn't seem to care about the issue because the stuff was incorrect..

Hey Burns
It is stupid, but I think all this crying about who stole who's moves is just as stupid... it's been happening ever since the art has been around and I'm sure it will continue to happen 100 years from now... The only way to stop the stealing is for the creators to not release it to the public... you cant steal whats not there...

They don't even do the flipback properly! Could at least have the decency to do it RIGHT for christs sake

Maybe they could make more money if they gave away faux cards with a forgery of De'vo's autograph with the DVD's.
A direct from text adaptation : The Strange Case Of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde Starring Mickey Rooney in his final role.

I have seen this DVD and I think lot of the card stuff is great. Many flourishes was new for me.
Very cool cuts, looks amazing.
Over 60 cool card stunts to see or learn...

Lol..."Not as good as GenX"?

But GenX isn't that very good anyway. Showoff 1 & 2 by Brian Tudor is waaaay better than GenX.

Showoff with Cards by your definition is down at the bottom of the food chain then =P

The material in Generation X kicks butt.
The DVD is a great DVD and I enjoyed watching the performances a lot, very nicely put together. The only thing bad in the DVD was the teaching. All the material and stuff covered in the dvd thought is great so just becuse the teaching is bad, it doesn't mean the DVD and the moves suck.

Personally I think Generation X had more intresting moves than the showoff series.

Anyone else?

Me !

I don't wanna talk about teaching in GENX because I don't care much about it, I watch to learn his routines and performance. Teaching part is Not important to me at all.

SHOW OFF performance is unbelievable, so fastttt !!!!! Brian is completely inhuman. Hat off !

"When you pay money to learn a move, you shouldn't have to figure it out alone"

If you want to learn his routines.. how do you do it with no theaching? how can you learn from someone if they theach bad?

Just my 2 cents.

The Birdy Fan he does was brutal because it looked like the fan was about to fall and his fingers were curled as if he was trying to carry a shopping bag instead of having the palm up and fingers stretched out... Does anyone know who was the performer in that dvd?? Some say its Rob the Stiff, but I don't even think he is that capable...
