I hope this doesn't cross the 'no commercials' line but what is the name of this video? Where can it be purchased?

You're asking a completely valid question, to which a group response is appropriate for hard to find items, for commonly available items ONE(and only one) of the outfitters/stores on the list could respond - "It's available in most paddling shops, should you have trouble finding one feel free to contact me or one of the other stores on the list.". If the person responsible for the item's existance is on the list they would be the prefered responder. A list of commercial and/or personal websites of paddlewise members is available at the paddlewise site under member links http://www.paddlewise.net/links/members/ Visit your local shops first, then paddlewise members... To me a commercial post is any where you or someone you know well stands to make money. For items available from a unique person/place I feel it's necessary for that person to respond to the list and the response would not be considered commercial. There have been instances in the past of friends of a store/outfitter/whatever asking leading questions which would garner a public response specific to their friends business. Don't do that.... As Steve Holzman just demonstrated, if you do have an affilition with those making money from the subject please admit it in your post. I'm sure I missed some details and nuances, but hopefully you get the idea.

(2) I don't sell videos. (3) I'm not affilitated with Wayne in any way, although I have taken classes from him. (4) The video is "Capsize Recovery and Rescue Procedures, Vol 1 & 2" It is good, although a little talky in spots, and VERY comprehensive. AFAIK, no one has sat through it from beginning to end. If you do, you can earn a spot on Wayne's list of paddlers who are too anal compulsive to spend time with :) (4) More info here http://www.useakayak.com/.
