I wanted that over the 1k but my better judgement stopped that.

Yup .

So after asking a few guys through pm about the differences between the new super stone and the pro's and which one was reccomended.

All good advice was given and I am thankful for it.

Ended up buying the 5k and 10k pro stones. Cost a lot of money but hopefully will be the last Stones I buy.

Now if Glen or someone else with these stones would make a video tutorial with these stones for the synthetically challenged.

No need for a stone specific video. You can watch videos for pretty much any synthetic stones for technique. They're actually pretty straight forward. Set the bevel, remove 1k scratches on 5k, remove 5k scratches on 8k and on to a finisher(or not).

Get a good bevel set and progressively polish the edge. Use a loupe to watch your progress on each stone. I don't do any testing after the 1k, it's all visual. Move to the next stone as soo as all the previous stones scratches are removed.

He already has made the videos especially for your b-day.
