scratching dvds

Well winter is coming and my seasonal job is about to end on oct 19. I'm looking to buy a "how to scratch" dvd. There's shitloads of them out there. Could anyone suggest what might be a good one, or perhaps some to aviod. I realized that most of these videos are going to be catered to hip hop. I've seen a few clips from q-bert's dvd #1. It looks like a pretty good one.

comments please?

i own 2 videos about how-to scratching, i bought the qbert one (vol 1). i dont think vol 2 is out. and, i bought some vhs with a bunch of 'scratch celbrities' showing off. the qbert one is a dvd, which is VERY nice to be able to jump to where you want when you want. the vhs is just people showing off, no tutorial really. but qberts was REALLLLLY good. i fully recomend it to everyone. he shows so many different scratches and fully explains them, he does them slowly, fast, simple, and complex variations of each scratch. its a very good tutorial. also, with each scratch, you can change the view so you can see how he is doing everything from like 4 or 5 different angles so you dont miss a thing. its quite good. get it!
but still, dont expect to become a scratch master just cause you own a how-to dvd. i know i sure didnt! but its fun none the less.

Hmm I'll have to check out the QBert stuff. There was a tiny bit of it on the Scratch dvd documentary, which was pretty cool and entertaining. The QBert dvd off Amazon is a bit pricey ($33 USD)

Here are the links on Amazon:
