E2: LIVE FROM CRANKWORX w/ trials rider Tomomi Nishikubo

Tomomi Nishikubo doesn’t shy away from a world-first trick. This might be why over the past couple of years, Tomomi’s biggest video projects have racked up over 13 million views.

Initially starting out in motocross at the age of five, Tomomi soon moved on to riding trials. After becoming Japanese Trials Champion twice in 2016 and 2017, he decided to focus on producing his riding videos full time.

In this episode, Eliot tries to figure out how Tomomi creates his popular videos, which cities have inspired his riding the most, and what it feels like to ride for big sponsors like Red Bull alongside heroes like Danny MacAskill.
