Yuki Taguchi Spring Ride - Video Feature

Yuki Taguchi Spring Ride - Video Feature

Keith Lyman had a house guest for a few weeks this spring, in the shape of Yuki Taguchi from Japan. Yuki is one of those riders who really isn’t scared at all about trying anything new, and it was really cool to see that wake riding in Japan is pushing forward. I only got to shoot Yuki a couple of times at sunset, but he has some awesome style - and the craziest backside 180 landing you have ever seen or heard about! This video also marks the end of the cold and crappy Florida winter that we’ve had, good times ahead!

    I got a chance to watch Yuki ride one afternoon last March at Gerry’s house and this video, which is awesome as always, simply does not capture how GOOD Yuki REALLY is. Great job as always Jon.

    Dude, you’re on the mark there. I was just talking to someone this morning on how good Yuki really is! Really wished i could have made it out to shoot him more! He also learns so fast, i couldn’t get over how fast he picked up stuff from Keith….

    Great Video! I saw him few times in Japan but his blind moves are superb. Especially his tantrum to blind kicks some serious butt. It’s good to see Japanese riders getting picked up on the HP!!
