i did drills with the instructor orleans, was a great experience, and orleans was a great teacher. we did not use any lines or routines (as it says in the marketing) the drills cover pretty much everything you need to be a good PUA. Now i did not get great overnight and the bootcamp was pretty tough, but it gave me a good understanding and has definatly cut my learining curve. If your going to do a bootcamp i would recomend it. I read the other reviews slating this bootcamp and i definatly would not agree, sounds like they eather expected to much i.e to become brilliant overnight, wich aint going to happen on any bootcamp. Or they would rather relay on routines, but theres no routines in this bootcamp and thats why i chose it

These reviews are bullshit. They're just promoting other materials and gurus.Guys, at least get the facts right and know what the drills are about. The drills are not about the escalation ladder or going out with Vin in bars and clubs.Very very lame.

Not worth my time! That's how I want to begin. I was made big promises before the bootcamp that it is something awesome by Vin Dicarlo , but the bootcamp was a major dissapointment.Yes they try to market their "Escalation Ladder" as being something great, but it is a very simple progressive touching technique and if you do not have the Verbal tools, inner game, and belief systems, coupled with Body Language and vocal tonality, you are going to be mediocre, and start feeling inadequate about your self, like i had after the drills bootcamp with practically no results.Guys, Vin and his team are very poor teachers, very very poor. I did not realize this till i started learning from other PUA's. They cannot teach you much besides the escalation technique, but escalation is not the core component of attraction, you cannot touch a girl and get her attracted to you. This was a major realization, when i had my first 2 lays with almost none kino and just using what you can call Verbal Game, but it involved a lot of building connection, breaking rapport, flirting, challenging, qualifiying etc which now have become natural parts of my game.My Bootcamp with Adam Lyons , which is incidently just for a 1000 dollars was the expereince which put me in the right track and gave me th efoundations of developing my own style of pickup.Since then i have learnt from Audio Products n ebooks of BradP, Lovesystems and ofcourse, Mystery.Guys, all I wanna say is that I get laid, whenever i want, and my friends are amazed at my progress, they cannot believe how much i have changed.Vin Dicarlo is so poor in teaching or not good as a PUA, i guess, that his teachings had made me doubt myself for the first time in my life. Please avoid him and look for better options for a complete and holistic development of your personality as an aspiring PUA.

Since most of the reviews tend to be a virtual commercial for workshop/seminar, I had to write against this one. I have to say I was largely disappointed. I had taken it with the instructor, Vin. This workshop was hardly life changing. The classroom consisted of mostly stuff I had heard before through CD's, DVD's from other seduction gurus. The only difference here is that it was taught to you personally from a pickup artist. That luxury cost you over $1000. It hardly helped me in the real world. In the field, I felt I was largely ignored by Vin at the bars/clubs. His attitude is to let you go on your own into the club. Sort of like, "Go pick up girls now." And he provided very little feedback or assistance. He seemed more interested in opening women himself. He did open two sets that he brought me in on. He gave me one opener to use, however I did not know what to say after I opened. Occasionally, he would point out something to me once every fifteen minutes or so. I opened a total of two sets myself. I am AFC, however their website claimed you'll open at least twenty or more during the workshop. After the first night, I felt like I was getting more help from the other students in the seminar. Some of the students I was in this with raved about it, however they were all ones with a bit more pickup experience than me. Vin's money back guarantee is meaningless. He'll never honor it. I have taken the Art of Attraction with Pickup 101 since then. While it was expensive and I still feel I have a lot to learn about approaching/dating women afterwards. I can at least say the instructors there really do care about their students. They do not ignore you when in you are in the bars/clubs. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT waste your time and money on any Vin DiCarlo workshop/product!
