>Long Beach 2 Cat DVD

The LB2CAT is the most prestigious and long running Offshore PWC Race in the United States! Leaving the shadow of the famous Queen Mary ocean-liner, racers head out through the Queens Gate across 28 miles of dangerous open waters of the Pacific Ocean. The City of Avalon on Catalina Island looms ahead, hard core offshore PWC racers turnaround and face off the strenuous return leg of open ocean swells, fatigue, and the exhausting control of their high horsepowered race craft. Who can take the LB2CAT challenge and go the distance, who will be the winners? The DVD consists of pre race interviews and helicopter footage of the race from Long Beach to Catalina and back. Enjoy! Note: The DVD is not a Blue Ray DVD. It was filmed in HD. Regardless there is pixilation during footage of the craft at high speeds due to what we assume is due to compression. Do not purchase this DVD if you are expecting it to be a completely clear video / picture, expect just standard DVD quality of footage. Available from Hot Products USA - Part No. LB2CAT009
