Has anyone seen this DVD? Is it legit? The description at the end
sounds like UNiVERsE 2. I never heard anything about "One Wheel No
Limit" changing the music to Pop-Punk. Many of the images on the dvd
sleeve look really familiar.

The Seller bought a copy of Universe 2 February 12th:

They also bought 100 dvd cases on January 31st:

Now I may be wrong, but it REALLY looks like " therealjettaman" is
ripping off unicycle films and making a profit. They have already sold
a few, one as high as $24 (without shipping!).

Very odd.

Later,

Jess

Ive never heard of one wheel no limit adding anything or changing the
music, he may have done it himself or something...
As for the universe 2, the seller is uniryder22, sounds like Dan himself
trying to sell a few on ebay.

Yeah, Dan sells them on there. What I meant was the guy selling this
OWNL dvd bought a copy of U2 from Dan. Reading his "extra 30 minutes of
Extreme Hardcore Unicycling" description, it looks like he ripped off U2
and is including it on his bootlegged dvd.

The DVD cover he has on the ebay link has a picture of Brian Mackenzie
on it from one of the lifestyles of the rich and famous 24 hr races on
it. It's He probably took it from the gallery here. Does anyone know if
he would need permission to do something like that? I know people use
the gallery photo's here on the forum but would something like that be
too much? Can he get his likeness taken off of there? Just a few
questions.

That's from a Paris to Ancaster race. (In 2003, not the one in 2004
where I kicked Ryan Atkin's butt :) ) That pic was posted by whoever was
doing the pics at that race. It's just a unicycle pic taken from the
internet, I don't think it would be worth anyone's time to take legal
action

I have a DVD version of OWNL I bought off ebay about a year ago, poor
quality, but the music is the original and their is nothing from U2 on
there. This must be a newer rip than what I have.

The video's being ripped off is one thing, Syko only has so much pull.
Were this kid could get in real financial trouble is with the music
industry. They don't take kindly to having their music stolen, that's
for sure.

I posed the following question to him in an email, I am sure he probably
frequents this site so here it is...

*"Is this a bootleg compilation of other unicycling DVD's on the market
like Universe 2?? Do you have permission from the artist like Green Day
to incorporate their music into the DVD. Do you have direct permission
and consent of the original producers of the video that is on your
DVD?"*

I can’t say that the replacement music really fits with the riding in
the OWNL video and besides I don’t see that Green Day et at. will take
kindly to it.

I can only suggest NOT to buy this bootleg DVD. The new authorised fully
indexed version will be much better, trust me.
