Review this video!
This DVD puts you on the bike with eight different, exciting camera positions. With nearly 400 action shots, not only on the bike but also from trackside and high above the rider, you see correct and incorrect riding. Drawings, diagrams and computer animations and demonstrations bring your visualization of riding into a crystal clear understanding of cornering and braking. No one has taken more time and care in developing the cornering arts than California Superbike School Director Keith Code. "Ride for fun or ride for fame, cornering is still the name of the game," he says

Great for showing riding from the riders angle.
The tips are mostly track oriented.
I found it was best as a supplement to actual riding, not for just watching to learn. Many of the techniques need to be practiced to be understood.
Can't go wrong, for any level of experience.
Interesting, good pointers, track oriented but you can still use the tips on the street. The approach seems a bit outdated but "Hey" it's Keith Code so it's best to pay attention!
Not worth it. if you're a new rider see the ride like a pro videos. i was expecting this to have something for intermediate to expert riders and was really disappointed and could barely hold my attention.
Many people have negatively reviewed this video and the associated books, A Twist of the Wrist I & II.
It's true most people will never use the techniques discussed on this video or in these books because they will never ride at this level.
I'm not a racer either, but I do understand what is being said and why these techniques work and improve your survival skills.
The ability to quickly jump into a turn allows you to delay your apex and that allows you to see more of the turn. You'll have fewer surprises this way ad you're better positioned for a decreasing radius trn should you find that lies around the bend.
One point I do use are the understanding of Survival Reactions or SR's as they're called.
SR's are things you do by instinct. You do them before you even realize you've done them. They are not a thought about action.
By discussing them and thier ability to make you crash, you can work at decreasing their effects on your driving and make yourself less prone to crashing.
I agree I'd only want to do a quick entry into a curve on a know course without sand, gravel, or mud, but understanding these things will make you a better rider.
Like the other review said "Hey, it's Keith Code. Pay attention."
