Hi All,

I bought Tom Wible's Pinball Basics DVD.  The short review is that is
it is a good video, delivers as advertised, and well worth the $20.
Tom covers the basics like aiming, passing, catching, nudging,
multiball, saving, and outlane control.  He also shows these
techniques on 3 or 4 machines (and makes me regret selling my
Embryon.. stupid... stupid!).  These are probably not new concepts to
everyone here, but I suspect that many of us could improve in these
areas.  The camera angles and instruction were clear.

The only real knock I have is that the cheesy music was a little
distracting.

Overall this was a great effort and perfect introduction to pinball, I
could see casual players like my dad and my brother learning a good
deal from this video.

I watched the preview on Youtube and your right. I think it's time to
overlay a new soundtrack or maybe adjust the levels so it's not so
distracting, It's kind of hard to even hear what he is saying over the
bow chika bow wow music.

BTW I really wish Tom would make the LOTR shooters again. Mine broke
and my LOTR pin just hasn't been the same since. :(- Hide quoted text -

Sad to hear about the shooter. Was it a second generation with the
spring-washer-shoulder?
