Nathan Glinski rode large portions of the amateur course earlier this week on his Honda CRF230F, with a GoPro video camera attached to his helmet.
We’ve created two videos from his video footage: a 2-minute preview for spectators and an 11-minute preview for riders. Feel free to grab the embed code and post it wherever. You can also view the videos on the TTC Facebook page.
Andrew Oldar alerted me to a new video he just put together.
It features clips of the some of the best youth trials riders in the USA practicing (and crashing) at the TTC earlier this summer at the invitation-only American Trials Teen Camp. Among those featured:
Karl Davis, Jr. Daniel Blane-Gonnet Seth Gray Chase Harker Nathan Hassler Homer Hensley Andrew Oldar Bryan Roper Josh Roper
Among them: left, Andrew Oldar and right, Eric Storz, now the stars of the Young Guns DVD available from Ryan Young Products. The catalog blurb reads:
Watch in dismay as the young teens, Andrew Oldar and Eric Storz, known as the YOUNG GUNS, thrill you with their uncanny riding ability as they hone their riding skills on their way to becoming two of the top PRO riders in the sport of Observed Trials.
Both these riders have already won Championships in their young careers but now they have their sights set on the big time. Filmed all around the USA, you will see not only these two outstanding riders, but also many of the top riders in Trials today. Watch them as they ride up huge walls and perfect their splatter technique on huge obstacles. Included in the Bonus Footage is the 2008 USA Indoor national, 2008 Tennessee FIM World round, and much more.
See Andrew’s and Eric’s recent YouTube videos below.
We received an email from David Naismith (AKA MrOlddave) from the New England Trials Association (NETA) alerting us to this YouTube video of instructor Ray Peters working with an unidentified student during this year’s Trials Training Days. The log-crossing instruction is taking place in the TTC’s practice pit. The video shows 3 attempts by the student (he almost makes it on the 3rd attempt), and two demonstrations by Ray.
We have another video of Ray demonstrating riding over these logs in the How to Ride Trials section of our site. It’s titled Using the Skidpan.
Dan Brown captured Ryan Young teaching section strategy in a rocky section yesterday, both for intermediate and advanced riders. I’ve added it to the TTC YouTube Channel.
Several of you have inquired on the whereabouts of the How-to-Ride section of the website. It’s coming Real Soon Now.
All the videos will be available in Flash this time, to make it easier to view them. I’m experimenting with difference video services, eg, YouTube, Vimeo, etc. In the meantime, here’s a little clip of instructor Andrew Blane from last year’s Trials Training Days:
Hey There, I just wanted to send you a quick note and thank everyone for putting together such a great event in the Tennessee Knockout.
