Secrets of Harimau - The Explosive Art of Pencak Silat Harimau Minangkabau (with Richard Crabbe de Bordes)
The tape is 55 minutes long and is organized as follows:

- short introduction to Indonesia
- salutation
- Kudas (postures/stances; LOTS of them; 10 minutes)
- Kuda Combinasi (flowing from Kuda to Kuda; 2 minutes)
- Kuda Applications (defense and counterattack against different kinds of attack; 22 minutes)
- Kudas are shown with the knife; De Bordes comes into play here (until then a student of him demonstrated the
Kudas); one reverse grip technique; 4 minutes
- Langkhas (footwork; 5 minutes)
- Langkha applications (including one against multiple opponents and one with a short sword against multiple
opponents with various bladed weapons; 10 minutes)
- last is a short bodyguarding scenario

All techniques are demonstrated without explanation.
No PUC here.Very artsy stuff but when De Bordes pulls it off you see that you should better not mess with him.
