monty-python Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Thats impressive, excuse my ignorance, but who's the rider, any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 I believe the rider is Gatti , he has a very good dvd called "Lecture First" http://www.mitani-ms.com/shop/video/2004/g...lecture.htm#dvd Here is link to a clip from the Lecture First dvd : http://210.236.174.160/move/rec-1.wmv (which is also from the mitani-ms web site. Gatti also has another video called Gatti Trials Artist http://www.mitani-ms.com/shop/video/2004/gatti-airtist.htm it is good too , but I much prefer the first one . He also has another video similar to the Lecture First dvd , it is called Lecture Zero , I would like to see it too, but I never found a way to order it . Here is a link to his home page : http://www.tomoyuki-ogawa.com/ http://www.tomoyuki-ogawa.com/info/video.html On the subject of Japanese Trials Videos , HRC/Fujigas have made two very good training videos . And the Trials Bible videos ,Volumes 1 - 4 , featuring Ken'ichi Kuroyama are all very good - Vol 4 is dvd , the first 3 are tapes. You can order them from Ikuno , at Trials Net Asia . Ikuno is apparently the producer of these Kuroyama videos and has a website , question-tv . Question-TV is a trials centered tv show in Japan - Ikuno has sent me a couple of tapes of his shows, complete with the commercials as broadcast there in Japan , good stuff ! http://www.geocities.jp/trialnet_asia/videos.html I believe on this web site Ikuno only shows the one HRC/Fujigas trials training video , but he has a second one also , he told me about it when I was ordering some of the other ones . So I got it too - sure you would get more out of them if you understood Japanese , but as they say - a picture is worth a thousand words , and a moving picture is worth more. Besides , after you watch them a few times you pick out a lot of English words amonst the Japanese,it is easy to hear - clutcheo , brakeo , etc. So you easily understand when they are trying to tell you to modulate the controls . --------------------------------------------------------------------- Another good video clip from the Mitani-ms site is : http://210.236.174.160/move/xtreme.wmv 16.3Mbyte enjoy, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasgaspunkuk Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Nice music on the first one, How old d'ya think they are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomant Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Nice music on the first one, How old d'ya think they are? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If your refering to the 16.3mb vid then that sure is good music The original is much better . You will find it on the 1972 Made In Japan Live album ( my favourite version) and its called Highway Star - Artist - Deep Purple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Nice music on the first one, How old d'ya think they are? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not sure when the videos where made , on my laptop I downloaded the demo.wmv and the synchro.wmv video clips , December 2004 . And the extreme.wmv clip in Sept 2005 . So they've been around for a while. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Opps , one more point I had intended to add to my previous post . The video in the originally posted link demo.wmv , is I think taken entirely or mostly from the Gatti Trials Artists dvd. If you download this clip you will see bits of the same video , http://210.236.174.160/move/art_1.wmv Unfortunately about half of this video clip is of Gatti working out in the gym . But the full Trials Artists dvd , is mostly him doing public demos or just out and about riding on or over whatever comes along - rather Steve Colleyesq - manmade walls, to inside freight trailers bouncing off the walls to larger boulders etc. A correction to the links at mitani-ms , if you go to the Lecture First Video page you get the correct link , if you go to the Trials Artist page you get the wrong link , what is gives is the same link as for Lecture First video , below are correct links to both. The links are correct to all videos from the main video web page , which also has some nifty clips from Japan Nationals - so you might want to check them out too . http://210.236.174.160/move/rec-1.wmv Lecture First http://210.236.174.160/move/art_1.wmv Gatti Trials Artists http://www.mitani-ms.com/shop/video/ main Mitani-ms video page , has Japan nationals vdieo clips , from 2004 David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
