I recently picked balloon twisting back up after a 15-year hiatus, and got this video as part of the
'Choose 5 for $99' deal as a means to re-introduce myself to some fundamentals and re-learn some of
the more complex designs. While it was pretty good for that, I didn't really love Joe's
presentation style (he seems constipated through the whole thing, and every smile he shows looks
forced and awkward), and he glossed over (or completely skipped) some key concepts that I know to be
fundamental to the practice, and there were a few 'standard' sculpture designs that he never teaches
or mentions. So, although I appreciate the overall contents of the video, I spent about 2/3rds of
the time thinking that I could have made a much better video. I certainly wouldn't recommend paying
full price for this video, but if you need a basic all-in-one intro to twisting, it's worthwhile as
part of the 'Choose 5' deal.
