Never heard of this brand.  Usually these videos are of the seller's kids, where they've been trained for hours to use the spinner.  Or, they put a high-level skater with spin trainer experience on the "new and improved" tool.  Surprise!  A skater doing triples who's been using a spin trainer for years and years can spin on the new tool almost right away.  *sarcasm*

I saw a motor-operated turntable for skaters at the PSA trade show.  That's a lot of control to put in someone else's hands, but I guess the harnesses are similar.
