Has anyone watched this video? If so, is it worth the $90 bucks?

What the best resource for learning how to use a Steadicam. I'm ordering a Magiqcam soon and want to learn about it before it arrives.

Like the title says. It's for advance users. If you really want something worth your while then get the EFP training tape that (Jerry- same guy who did the advance tape) and Ted Churchill did a very long time ago. It is still worth every penny today as it did then.
Don't get me wrong, the advance tape is good but not for beginners. It goes more into the technicalities than the actual basic stuff. I suggest you go with the EFP Tape first, that's if you are lucky enough to find it, maybe on E-bay. It's been showing up once in a while.
When I had a e-mail conversation with Ira Tiffen some time ago about re-doing the training tape because it was so in demand, he said he Jerry were thinking the same thing. So maybe you'll be very lucky to have an updated version soon.
