But a unicycling video is something useful! Calm down and think about it
and I'm sure you'll agree.
To chip in my \two cents on the subject, the JUA puts out several types of
vides, some of excellent quality. Even if you don't know Japanese it could
be very useful and ionterestiing. The videos range from instruction, to skills
and demonstrations of the incrdible Cinderella Girls who got a standing
ovation at Quebec.
Before you flame let me make it clear that I have nothing to gain by
this, and JUA probably will be to lazy to send you the videos (so I
guess I'll have no choice but to..)
