History
Round 1 (1997)
The first video shows Mullen "competing" against Song—the two are close friends outside of the video series.<ref name="Peech">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The video also features combined parts from the World Industries,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref> A-Team,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref> and Blind teams<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref> (as they were in 1997 when the video was released). Song and Mullen both appear in their own parts<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref> that are combined with small sections that feature members of their respective brands' teams.
Round 2 (1999)
Compared to the first video, Round 2 was produced in a slightly different format. As with Round 1, the video features individual parts from Mullen and Song,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref> and there are also combined parts from the World Industries, A-Team, and Blind<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:CbignoreTemplate:Dead Youtube links</ref> teams—some World team members had, by this time, formed the Deca brand. However, there are also short advertisement-like sections throughout the video for the other brands that were being distributed by Dwindle Distribution at the time, making the video similar to an issue of a video magazine.
Round 3 (2004)
As it is effectively an Almost video, the third installment is considerably different from its predecessors. Almost: Round Three not only includes Song and Mullen, but features full-length parts from the Almost team of the time: Chris Haslam,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref> Cooper Wilt,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref> Greg Lutzka,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref> Ryan Sheckler,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref> and "William Patrick",<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}Template:Cbignore</ref> who was really Tyrone Olson in a costume.Template:Citation needed
