Is Speedreading all that you need to become a pro?

Today, I went to the arcade and there was this guy who saw me play an Expert song (anubis on ITG) and I did like a C, and then the guy asked me how long I played and I said 3 Months (true). The Guy was shocked.

And I mean this guy is a pro beyond reason. He knew how to play backwards and fowards. He did challenge with Vanish like it was nothing. He was god of ddr at the arcade. But he was surprised that I could handle that much in that little time.

I think the only reason I did so good is because of a program I got called eyeQ, a program known to help increase your brain power and speed of reading.

Whenever I see the arrows on screen, it seems as if the arrows slow down more than usual and its pretty weird. Is it the speed I read that realy affects my performance? Or is it just practice makes perfect.

For more information eyeQ, visit http://www.infmind.com/.
Here are a couple of links I grabbed off of google that might help:

What do you think?

Stepreading is nothing if you have no stamina. E13.gif
