I got my copy today and for a free movie it was perfect.
Had I paid money I would've been bummed about the suuuuuper sloooooow clips that made up about 75% of the film, I think this was to stretch it out since it was only 40 minutes (no problem with the length, but would've preferred a slightly faster paced film that lasted 30 minutes...but I did get some reading done while watching).
A few shots it would've been nice to see the scenery around the rider/sled that filled the frame, but the super zooms coupled with super slow speed did give me a good look at the paddle sizes the pros are running.
Other than that no complaints, great talent, a LOT of good footage, I loved the soundtrack, the rider commentary was a nice touch. I also liked that there wasn't a lot of 'filler' shots, everything in the film was worth watching.
All in all a good film, a great one if your attention span is longer than mine.
