There is no denying this....

Your hair is EPIC, Epic! :3

[Jammerjoint]

AHHHHH!

What really impressed me was that you had enough confidence to do a raiz on a ledge at 0:27.

Also glad to see some great tricking in there! Love the ledge work, something really unique to your style.

[MomaSuper]

@broadhorizons23 hahah that's actually a good fav of mine, I can go for a long time so long as I have the space. I just get dizzy after a good bunch. hahaha

[broadhorizons23]

@Epic1 That and what you did at 2:27... you were doing a flip and spread your arms out and arched your back....it looks awesome. It kind of freezes you in mid air for a second... I've seen you jump over stuff and do that face forward to....it's freaking awesome!

[broadhorizons23]

@Epic1 That and what you did at 2:27... you were doing a flip and spread your arms out and arched your back....it looks awesome. It kind of freezes you in mid air for a second... I've seen you jump over stuff and do that face forward to....it's freaking awesome!

[ryrygutta]

@Epic1 what stretches and workouts do you recommend to someone new to parkour? I'm highly interested in expressing myself through it!

[Epic1]

@ryrygutta I do all kinds of stretches, I have a stretch routine video actually... and workouts... i don't do much conditioing, but i DO do a lot of drilling. I drill movements and passes and combinations over and over and over.

[KIDWITAGUN]

[nigel5549]

[TeamFoundation]

@OfficialWolfpacMusic Whatever you want! Really theres no rhyme or reason to it. ButI started with prescisions...Rolls...And Vaults.

[TeamFoundation]

@OfficialWolfpacMusic Start wherever you're comfortalbe; do whatever you're comfortable with. I reccommend starting in a gym so you cant wreck yourself, but yeah. Do whatever!

[TeamFoundation]

LOL I JUST realised that at 2:23 you see Evan in the background getting pants-ed!

[MrBrianSzymanski]

You're tricks are looking really clean. Looks like staying positive really does pay off!

[kenta000007]

2:34 ambidexterity FTW

the most underrated talent in parkour :D

[snipeapotomus]

Dear Epic(Kyle), as i watched this video i thought about my life. However cliche this sounds, from YOUR video, this one, i've decided to stop what i've been doing. Ive been wasting my life doing drugs, drinking, going against everything i believe and was raised to believe. I realized i have so much more to live for than this. I want to spend my life doing something worth while, i really think that your videos have got me started in parkour and now im taking XMA with the AKA.

Message me.

Thanks.

[Ericquin6515]

@Epic1 I think they have a floor trick section, I wish they had a parkour/freerun section.

[slimchug]

prince of persia's stunt double!

[Isosyth]

@slimchug the prince of persia is Epic's stunt double :P

[CiaoBella700]

[falcon8967]

Dude, I hope you've gotten your big break, because you are so skilled and have been so good to the parkour/freerunning community, much love bro!

[evan331212]

[raslanu9pxtwwd]

[Epic1]

@lohiaguitar91 go out and play.... not only on a playground, THE WORLD is the playground, your imagination is your engine, and your body is the vehicle, your mind is the driver, and the obstacles are your tools.

[lohiaguitar91]

@Epic1 Thanks Epic. Very inspiring and motivating!

[searock1988]

[loopyperson1]

[AndrewClocksinPK]

The creativity in your videos is basically unrivaled by most other Freerunners these days... I love this, very inspiring to watch. :)

[zearex3]

[76mrlonely]

[XGazudin]

Epic its always the same with you.

Ironically tahts why you dont get boring haha.

See a sampler of yours and think "wow amazing...the next one wont surprise me because i know you're just amazing!"

Then the next sampler..." wtf how did he get even THAT MUCH BETTER".

The same.

Everytime.

Haha :D

[XGazudin]

@XGazudin

Oh btw i know this is just some footage not a sampler, its the same anyway :D

[show4yours]

[RueMyView]

Hey what did you use for the first person shots? I've been trying different things for that and would love to hear how you did it.

By the way that was a sick video.

[Epic1]

@RueMyView There's an amazing camera out there called a GoPro, a buddy of mine got his from Best Buy but do some research on it and you should be able to find it.

[ISIJAH]

AWESOME VIDEO!

And just gotta say, IT LOOKS SOOO COOL WHEN YOU JUMP WITH YOU AWESOME LONG HAIR FLYING "IN THE WIND"!!! *o* Seriously! It looks really great! : DD <3

[1996sindre]

[Epic1]

@1996sindre WHY NOT!?!?

[OfficialHelpKenny]

@1996sindre Because having long hair is kewl! >:(

[1996sindre]

@OfficialHelpKenny I never said it was unkewl.. :D

[Ericquin6515]

[Epic1]

[Epic1]

@TheConstructiveTroll Kiss my ass!! =PPP

[3choparkour]

@Epic1 not very positive now r u?

[Epic1]

@3choparkour If you do not see me as a positive person then it is because you CHOSE to see me as so. Though taking ur thought into consideration I will say it is hard to show sarcasm on the net. =PPP

[3choparkour]

@Epic1 heh? but i was kidding dude ur hair is badass

[Dimawesome]

@Epic1 i dont want to tell you what to do but let your hair as they are. you remind me of the prince from prince of persia and that's pretty cool :)

[DaRiderDude13]

@TheConstructiveTroll it doesnt matter how he looks he owns at wat he does. u try doin this stuff. if that hair makes him a ninja, it wuld be stupid to cut it. ( not sayin his skill comes from his hair)

[TheConstructiveTroll]

@DaRiderDude13 all right, i'll upload a video one of these days and you tell me if I'm good or bad okay?

[DaRiderDude13]

@TheConstructiveTroll it doesnt matter what i think im not very good. no offense to epic but it doesnt matter wat he thinks either. it materrs wat YOU think

[Epic1]

@DaRiderDude13 DAMN RIGHT!! =))

[raslanu9pxtwwd]

man you should be on d13 cuz you own david belle

[GTdracula]

Bro thats awesome, i wish my friends werent so fucking lazy and actually came out with me at least for moral support. I have to do everything by myself and it sucks cause theres no one or anything to cheer on or even say can you teach me some of that. I learned alot from your videos keep it up ok.

[Epic1]

@GTdracula that is why you'll progress further than them, but don't keep them out if they want to join the game. =D

[alimkkpk]

WOW TEACH ME YAYYYYYYY??



[Eddietheallrounder]

Awesome man...im guessing that you finally got a camera lol or at least borrowed one....... but still great vid

[Richpence]

Ok. Who else thinks that Epic should be the new main character for the next mirror's edge game? :)

[WhindSoull]

1:05

[Mrepiclykindofawesom]

[mrjack92]

[Teirblunt]

Seems like your doing your best to be more public than ever. Why the sudden crowd searching.

[ninoboy213]

Any general tips for standing fulls?

[Epic1]

@ninoboy213 punch the armpit

[MovementSpecialist]

[0gravity1994]

[trickaholic]

[ghostuse2010]

@Epic1 Music Ples And nice Work



[constructedc]

nice man! really awsome!

[grundin1]

Many people watching this video will respond, for example, 'that looks cool'. This is a waste of comment and doesn't compliment you enough for what you do. You are more than just a guy who makes videos on youtube about parkour, you are an inspiration to all who watch and believe in themselves to accomplish their goals! One of your best videos yet, from you, in my opinion.

Huge inspiriation

Kieran

[KristianBlinksbjerg]

I love your message! - Stay Positive :D

[cozzaaaxx]

amazing

[lqiyun7]

you're wonderful! :) just asking, how'd you train yourself to be that good?

[Epic1]

@lqiyun7 Passion, Dedication, and Will.

[SangumaKROW]

love this stuff man, love the music, ur my friggin idol. keep being awesome

[Dqson]

Not gonna lie sir. Some of your flips seem impossible. i've seen some stuff but im talkin specifically about your wall flips.. That's sick.

[blakhell05]

On a day that I can't be bothered watching much, including all my parkour/freerunning subs, I still watch you... keep up the good work, legend

[redtrunkun]

@blakhell05 same here, your videos never get boring.. and that's something rare at the moment =)

[SanctusVSArtema]

Can I ask you a question? How did you put that 'Epic' logo in the whole video, which program or whatever? Thanks!!

btw, love the music ;)

[Epic1]

@SanctusVSArtema I put my logo as a .png file and put it on my adobe premiere and just throw it over the video.

[knuckletrain]

can you do a tutorial on ur Martial arts kicks and stuff??? like the 720 crescents and 540 tornado kicks??? i cant seem to finish them correctly....

[Epic1]

@knuckletrain i already have a tutorial on those kicks

[knuckletrain]

@Epic1 o...my bad sorry

[BahrainParkour]

1 dislike? 1 person is toooooo fat to do this!

[ddorlova]

nice videos good flips and parkour 

[Tcat5310]

Kyle: You have proved to me that you are indeed one of my top 5 favorite freerunners... Mainly because your helpful tutorials, AND the fact that we share the same ethnicity^_^(yes, im part-peruvian, my mother was born in lima)

But back to the point: This was your best video yet, simply amazing, clean, fluent, stylish, i could go on for another page....

~Pe@cE~, just as important as "stay positive";)

[Epic1]

@Tcat5310 PAISA!!!! =))))))

Thanx for your kind words man... much appreciated!!

[Tcat5310]

@Epic1 No prob...I havent ever been up in the andes, unfortunately....But i had the oppurtunity to go to Lima a few months ago. Alot of fun, AND there's some great spots there as well...

[General22]

amazing work as always. you obviously train hard and the results are well worth it. keep inspiring us man and thanks for always reminding me to STAY POSITIVE, becuz in this sport it's really hard to do sometimes.

[vantwick95]

fake and gay
