They are showing it frequently. The show is called Unbeatable Banzuke.
Yes, the unicycling looks weak by today's standards. But the show isn't
today. I know a lot of those riders. Some of them were even at Unicon I!
Others were at Unicon XIII and nearly all of them were probably at
Unicon XII (Japan). The shows were taped somewhere in the range of
1998-2000 or so. That's before Trials unicycles existed. And mostly
before Trials unicycling existed. All those riders are Freestylers and
track racers, because those were the only major events of the time.
Some of the riders featured:
Daiki Izumida (as seen in Universe II)
Kato Yuichiro
Fuyuki Tsuchiya (an organizer of Unicon XII)
Manasori Wakae
Yoshiaki Handa
Yuichi Ono
Very cool to see them on TV, even if it's through a time warp... I've
been "Tivoing" it with my Dish Network DVR, but don't have a way of
getting the video from there to somewhere else.
