The video is from Inertia 2 - it sounds like the commentary may be from Paul Dusatko, the guy who made the Inertia videos. They recently released Inertia 1&2 on DVD - I wonder if that's the commentary track?

It's too bad there isn't footage of Dave Grahm sending Action Directe!

Shallow 1 finger dyno to a 2 finger pocket with feet kicking out. My hands hurt just looking at that.

Thanks, that is great!!

There is a great montage of Dan Osman (11 min) and his stunts. Most I have seen but not all together.
