I was wondering if any one is going to the free run champship at the Roundhouse Wednesday?
I know Alper is going and gave me a ring to see if I was. I'm hoping to buy tickets at the door, I'm not sure if you can as there is no info on the website about buying on the door. I know the tickets are around £20 I think and it starts at 7.30 to 10.30
Anyway I was hoping if people do want to go, maybe we could meet before hand and go for a meal or something.
I'l post up more info about tickets.

He shouldnt be so cokey in future.
From whats happening in the freerunning world, its about competition now. Did David Belle and Sebastian Foucan create Parkour as a Competition No!. Its soon going to be a big sort of comp like 'world cup or 'Euro' not as big of course but still its getting out of hands, thats why i dont do the sport no more and obvs other reasons.
I just carnt stand people competing.

Loooong drop onto the rib cage. Going by the way he went into the under bar it looked like he was expecting something totally different to be there. Were the competitors given time on the aperatus to familliarize themselves with the layout before the actual comp started?

Just let people find their own way and express themselves however they want. I hate it when parkour Nazis say don't use your elbows on climb-ups, and "your vid was good, but your Parkour was lacking. Too many flips and too many big drops." Life is for living, not telling off.

yeah but dude big drops mash up your shins and climb ups are slower when theyre onto your elbows and they cut your arms up. But I agree with the rest. Like I take my training seriously, its a big part of my life but some people need to chill and stop being so uptight.
