southbank team

[madmonk]

would it be safe to say that we are officialy the london southbank pk team? because a few people have come up to me saying, " oh ur mad monk from flying squad.... the london team right?"
so would it be safe to ask on UF is flying squad becoming the new southbank team as we are down EVERY WEEK sat and sun, rain no rain....

[god]

lol thats all i can say! team london

[Sam]

omg why dont nobody say are you kid from flying-squad lol thats not fair , only kidding.

[madmonk]

so do u think it will be ok to post it on uf askin if we are becoming the london team

[forbzie]

coz no one knows you lol, jokin anyway i think FS is a good name . but as official headquarters for FS i think it is fair to say that SB is the no 1 spot

Edit: Not the london team but, i think the SB team

I think you should ask EF1 and fogs. Yes we are at southbank every week, rain, sun or other weather conditions but one thing I do know,we are a london group.

Now if we were shown by UF to be a southbank, would that mean that we are a UF team? because if so one plus thing is we are well known, however a bad thing is that we wouldn't be us, we would be them. One thing I know FS is shown, as is team of strong, decent, confident people who are willing to help anyone who wants to learn PK/FR (and I'm proud of that).
I don't really want to be a team where most people think about making money or being famous, because that is where the ego's are and I enjoy the company of my friends in FS, actuallly i prefer you guys, than my friends at my school.

What are you talking about???
Flying Squad isnt changing it's name for any reason.

Flying Squad is the closest thing there is to a London team and doesnt need to change the name. FS members come from all around London; north. east, south, west. No other group can claim to have the representation Flying Squad has. This is why Flying Squad stands out amongst other teams. Not because it has the best traceurs but because it is the best represented.
FS will not limit itself to London that is fukkin stupid.
Anyone can join Flying Squad as long as they proove themself to have the right attitude and promote FS principles. You dont have to buy anything you dont have to sign anything you dont have to suck anybodies kock or treat anyone like they are special (ego's are out). WE are Flying Squad and we are all special.

Why would you think you need to ask UF's permission about anything??? It has nothing to do with UF!
If you want to start a team called London Team or SouthBank Team go ahead and do it. It is your choice.
UF is simply another team, thats all, and have no control over what any group of traceurs want to call themselves.
DO NOT! mention anything about Flying Squad changing its name on any forum.
UF has no consequence on anything that Flying Squad chooses to do. If Flying Squad wants to do somthing it will do it and it will only ever be for reasons that are for the benefit of Flying Squad.
Flying Squad doesnt have to ask anyones permission to change anything about Flying Squad.
Flying Squad is probably the strongest represented group on the street in the FR/PK scene and continues to achieve everything that it setout to achieve. Flying Squad jumps regularly gather 30 traceurs together, that is special, No other group can do this on a regular basis like Flying Squad.
We should all be extremely proud of what Flying Squad has become. It is becuase of how we have set up Flying Squad that it is so successful.
Flying Squad isnt broke and it doesnt need fixing.
We are Flying Squad.

I wonder why some traceurs feel so humble to UF. UF isnt the best team in terms of quality of traceurs, not by a long shot. I would suggest UF are not even in the top 10. There are far better teams around that havnt maniopulated media exposure as well as UF.
UF hasnt got a regular street representation. it is rare to see UF on the street. because they dont have that kind of depth within the group.
UF's strength lies with its media representation, promotional strength and the high quality of its internet presence, and, becuase of it's association with the Jump London/Britain programs.
UF is attempting to recruit traceurs because they are aware many other teams have better traceurs and stronger quality in depth. If UF dont attempt to lure the better traceurs from other groups they are at risk of appearing inferior to the teams with better quality traceurs.
The Leaders of UF have done a fantastic job with maintaining an impression of prominance within the scene, however by their actions it seems they have become aware of the situation as it really stands; Many traceurs have seen through the UF hype and realise that UF arnt as prominant as they would have you believe and must recruit some better traceurs to keep up with the top teams.
I have no personal gripe with UF and I appreciate & respect they have done a fantastic job with promoting PK and their brand around the world. However i think it is right to highlight their motives.
There is an expanding market developing around the PK/FR scene and whoever gets the biggest slice of the action in these early days will do very well for themselves indeed.
Good luck to them.
Dont believe the hype.

:-*remember guys it is down to all the hard work we have put in over the last two years that we have got where we are. we trained for over a year and a half without internet exposure, how important is internet exposure to you personaly?what difference do you think internet exposure makes? is it more important for you to be seen on internet screens then training and jamming?
mmmm.. i think 'team look at me', is a good name for a new team, who wants to be in it?
or 'team he bought me a sandwich' or we can change our name every time we move to another place 'team sand bank' , 'team imax', 'team going home now i have to be in by 9'

c'mon lads, training and jamming or internet spamming, the choice as allways is YOURS!!!!!

[fogs]

Well said Ef1 & Kingo
I'm starving and i want to be in Team he bought me a sandwich today, yummy!

[pkpete]

Well done for asking us all Monk, before going ahead with it, you did the right thing.
I should have made this piont originally but i was a little vexed by the whole concept of Flying Squad having to ask anyones permission to do anything.
Please dont do it though! It would make Flying Squad look weak and inferior it is totally the wrong perception to promote Flying Squad.
Flying Squad has no interest in other groups outside of the wider FS family.
Flying Squad is only interestred in what goes on within Flying Squad. And NO ONE tells Flying Squad what they can & cant do.
