This is not really a complaint, because I am still learning some valuable stuff. But there are a few times when the presenter undo's like 15-20 steps (at least it seems that way). And it kinda throws you off as the pupil. Because some of the presenters steps and tweaks are not really exactly like yours so 22 undos for him could be like 33 for me. So it kinda has you off track. I would say re-shoot the thing if you have to undo that much.

But what I suggest and am doing now is watch the dvd all the way thru (on some sections I watched it 2x's). Then go in and do the tuts so you kinda know this is going to happen.

Just my .02. But it is good stuff going on in there.

Thanks for the comments. I'm glad you are enjoying the tutorial.
When I'm creating the tutorials I tend to get caught up in the creative process so I sometimes experiment to try things to see what works best, but like you said it can lead to some undos. I like to leave some of that in the tutes to show problems that can occur and ways to work through them. The way I look at it is that it's the methods and thought processes that one needs to learn rather than a rigid "do this, do that" approach. But yes,.. I understand that when there are several undos it can be confusing. I'll do my best to keep it to a minimum.
