  • nice vid man. 

  • I actually love this. It's simple, not overblown, and conveys humility much more than any of the dubstep and slowmotion of every other parkour video. This one, I'll actually remember. I'm inspired.

  • Great video... poor facial hair.

  • @Quijiboh *sigh* Opinions galore. Thanks for watching.

  • haha ham duche.

  • Empezando en el parkour... watch?v=VBgBqcQsk1A

  • lol it was ok until the retarded 360 on the hill

  • @crippledqueer Movement is movement, accept it for what it is or peace. Thanks for watching.

  • Now he is what i call our urban ninjas of today.

  • i love this video, and it's not because it has great video and amazing tricks but i love it because i would like to see another video with him improve and if he already has the skill then i would like to see him use it. keep it up i would like to see another video

  • That was nice and relaxing, unlike most PK/FR videos. Thank you.

  • @Waddledee187 Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed.

  • Nicely played, pretty epic and almost believable that that was all done in one run. Great Job Hamduche, keep it up

  • i like how a tracuer on American Parkour is actually from America

  • @MrParkour713 Makes sense I suppose, but everyone, all traceurs and free runners alike deserve a proper, fair shot to be featured. I couldn't be more grateful that they'd granted me such a prize. Thank you for watching.

  • @DaKineUpdate Thank you for the parkour

  • @MrParkour713 Absolutely, thank you for watching. ^_^

  • LOVE IT!

  • Pretty Good!

  • He makes use of what he has, and i respect that. Good job man.

  • beautiful..... i completely agree with neglectedmelon.....he said it best XD

  • for what he did it was a decent video. i was hoping for something more, and a bit better. however given what he was doing he really captured the essence of freerunning and parkour. 

  • great video sir i applaud the effort and the movement as well. you are doing great with what you have and i wish you the best. Have fun and train hard. glad APK choose this as VOTM

  • i was expecting more but well... good job!

  • Ok, everyone needs to shut up (trying to insult other people in the comment section). Trolls: fuck off. As for the video, not everyone can do a kong to gainer off a ledge, and land in a handstand or whatever. Everyone has their own limits (which hopefully they push) and does Parkour/Freerunning differently. Personally, I think this kid took time into making this vid, because he had to run past the camera, then run back, pick it up, and keep going. Bravo, man.

  • @TheTraceurBoy I bow to you, sir. I appreciate your, in my opinion, unbridled view on movement as well as for watching my video. Thanks so much.

  • @DaKineUpdate No problem man, keep it up :)

  • Care dies weeping with those wounds gay

  • @BMTH95PK I don't even think that was an insult to me, rather one towards yourself for that butchered post.

  • @DaKineUpdate rather eat shit

  • Such nice flow!

  • A great video showing people who do not live in concrete jungle towns what they are capable of :) Bravo!

  • I found this great. Original and respectable.

  • First parkour video for a long time to leave me with a smile. I liked it, keep it up, its inspiring to see people taking full advantage of what at first looks like a mediocre parkour spot.

  • 2:32 is when I realized he was trying to do free running/parkour.

  • @DanthemanSpideyFilms 2:32 is probably when you started watching the video. ^_^

  • @DaKineUpdate haha I wish

  • @DanthemanSpideyFilms Ouch. Well, I'd love to see how well you could do. Thanks for watching.

  • Oh shit!

  • dude can move, great job ...i don't see any video replies from you haters

  • Do you know off hand how many times you had to get up and down the wall to edit the camera position through this video? I bet it was a lot. I think you're pretty strong, great job @DaKineUpdate .

  • @blackishwolf22 Thank you for realizing that. I appreciate you watching and much love.

  • Awesome video man, keep it up :)

  • My problem is, it looks like he's stressing himself too much. Like he's not use to the movements and he's forcing himself to go. That and the "music".

  • @narutardtedr Oh, that's not it at all. The music is one thing, we can't all agree on a single track, but I've been doing this for 3 years now and I'm well adjusted to the movements. Whatever you interpret though from what is seen is your observation all the way. Thanks for watching.

  • @DaKineUpdate Alright, just try to relax a bit more in your next video even if it's just facially?

  • @narutardtedr Yeah... sure, sorry if the lip hair scared you. I look forward to your next amazing parkour video as well, keep it up. ^_^

  • @DaKineUpdate I don't have a video camera but i will try and buy one soon. Thanks, and i wish you the best!

  • I love his style :) amazing

  • Awesome video and great job filming it alone, i like the different camera angles you approached it and your own take of the area around you. 

  • @ExileOfSand True thanks, friend. Doing this alone enables me to become not only an efficient runner but a decent video creator as well. Thanks for the view. ^_^

  • Very Nice. he has filmed all of it alone!

    Well Done! :)

  • @ImogenMystline Thanks a ton, it adds that much more value to my work knowing that I slaved it alone. Thanks for your comment and for watching.

  • i love it!! I love the fact that his town looks mine in that it's empty and in the middle of nowhere yet he still finds movement. awesome video. :D

  • @JacquisAmI I couldn't have typed it better. That was the initial point, find a place that is spacious but not void of ideas.

  • Nobody in city? :D

  • @GermanJET2407 I live in cow town, my friend.

  • im a traceur for 6 years now, and this is different! i really enjoyed it. keep it up bro! always one love!

  • @felixartofmovement Excellent, 6 years and keep it strong, bro. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the video as well my brand.

  • Comment removed

  • oh fuck i am much better than this guy but i wont show my skills to somebody because i have to train hard for the next 1-2 years and YOu you train 3-4 years befor show somebody sthg because that what i have seen in this video can do every normal sprorty person on earth sorry but there is nothing that is special ...

  • @ALLcab10Hero I'd react to that intelligently and thorough if it was a properly composed post. Thanks for watching anyways.

  • @ALLcab10Hero It's a severe shame that you believe in the importance of being better than another. With all that is supposed to be followed, the precepts of parkour and all its teachings. What you have posted is tantamount to a slap in the face of any runner. With all that has been taught, a true practitioner would not stoop so low as to compare his skill to anyone else's. You can claim to better than me but with that uttered by your lips you still have a whole lot to learn, good luck to you.

  • @DaKineUpdate yeah i know the philosophie and so on and i dont think that you have to stop parkour ;) but i think you skills arent on a level to present them , there is no need for a vid you ca also just make a video of skateboarding without any tricks but that is crap and also it is crap to make videos of parkour with skills like these ;) there is nothing about to be better than a nother , the only thing i want to say that it is lost lifetime to make und see videos like these ;)

  • @ALLcab10Hero I think the same principle applies to you as well, if you choose to compose a comment without proper grammar, then please don't bother in the first place. It's really only an insult to yourself. Secondly, you're whole comment is a joke. (aside from butchered spelling) A practitioner's skill level should not be viewed as something negative or whether you find it worthwhile or not. It's nothing short of crude and distasteful to propose that watching this is "a wasted lifetime."

  • Check out my freerunning vids XD and sub ! i'm as good as this guy :L

  • @strawberryglasses I'll admit, you're not bad. Keep it up. ^_^

  • @DaKineUpdate Thnx I loved your vid cuz it's not flashy it's just motion and also my favourite no. is 66 and i have 66 subscribers too :)

  • @strawberryglasses Right on, brother. That number will rise in due time though.

  • for all of those hating on this video, i dont see your SOLO montage that made it on to american parkour

  • This guy is great actually chek his flow and the rest of his moves nothing wrong with that! But just the music that is used and too much running (i don't say running is bad but atleast cut some off the running aways so it isn't boring to watch) makes this video extremely boring to watch and thats probably why theres so much votes down.

    I'm not going to vote this down cause i'm not a troll... i'm just pointing out some idea's to make your video more enjoyable!

    cheers keep it up!

  • @unknownmovement Good looking out, sir. I'll consider that for vids to come. Cheers.

  • @DaKineUpdate Oke glad you didn't take it the wrong way, cause editing skills, camera skills or a good song have absolutely NOTHING to do how good someone is in parkour or freerunning. That is something everybody trolling here should get in mind before they start saying they deserve to be the video of the month more then you!

  • @unknownmovement Of course, but let trolls hide under bridges and scare the town's children as they pass by, I make sure to carry my mallet at all times. Thank you for the comment and support. Keep moving, brother.

  • my dislike goes only for music and repeats

  • this was very relaxing!

  • That was awesome man

  • this basically what my daily runs are like haha except for the roof part....somebody always ends up getting mad at me :P

  • A refreshing take on a parkour video. I absolutely loved it.

  • Fricken great!

  • Awesome video man!

  • Hey everyone, I'm a total douche for my previous comment, I knew it would get top rated and that's all I could think about.

    I apologize for my earlier comment.

    However, I was not saying that there was no skill, only that the way the video was shot was not impressive. I usually give advice on filming to help people, but seeing the other comments told me mine would be on top...selfishness, greed, human nature...

  • Dude, I applaud the work and dedication that you've put into this video. Don't listen to all these morons trying to bring you down; they're not worth it. Keep going, man! ^_^

  • GREAT VIDEO MAN nice work, i love this video, and for the haters he variey and flow. did he stop running, NO. nice work dont stop because of the haters i love this video. i really like the wall run to wall spin, keep it up

  • @goldeneye3100 Much thanks to you. Whether the whole universe is against me, I'll always train harder than yesterday.

  • I love this video... very nice all around. i give it a thumbs up.

    I like how you can hear the music and movement.

  • nice job man. Using what you have in your environment, clean moves, and most of all, you actually MADE A VIDEO unlike many of these people posting comments.

  • No mamen xq dislikes? apoyen ojetess! quisieran rifar asi :(

  • @DaKineUpdate man you got some real good stuff in here, but here's a suggestion, try to cut down time on you running places even though, yes, running is a huge part of parkour, it's not really too entertaining. I know parkour is all about self satisfaction and pushing your own limits but honestly the reason why i watch pk vids is for entertainment value and inspiration. So keep up the pk man! Just consider the entertainment part next time you edit stuff together, less down time, the better

  • @FALAFELKING4sho You can check out my other vids if you'd like. I'm not amazing but I manage to get by on my own sweat.

  • ...THIS IS THE VIDEO OF THE MONTH?!?!?!?!?!

    

  • @mattaobrown ....Look at the title if you're not sure.

  • the best part was 3:47...

  • @PKazum I wouldn't have added it to the video if I didn't think so myself. ^_^

  • @DaKineUpdate dude trust me your alot better than this guy hes a one trick person. you have flow and variety. hes just cheap flips

  • @JordanRamcoast Which guy, sir? There's quite a few who feel I'm not worth my salt. ^_^

  • @DaKineUpdate the yootoobnooob123 i meant to reply to your reply to that idiotic comment. I thought this was a great video and it had a nice style. you werent about the flips but you threw some in. this guy who has the top rated comment is an ass hole.

  • @JordanRamcoast Well, George Bush ran the United States for 8 years, that proves an asshole can be on top. I thank you for your courteous words and happy you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching. ^_^

  • 3:58 oh man go to the hospital :S

  • I dont see any passion.

  • @OddWorld117 It's there, try looking past only what you see.

  • everything he did that he thought was cool, he played twice, but none of it was cool. haha, its not that he is bad, he just needs to learn how to film and how to edit

  • @TheJoel1313 When I film, I never keep it in my mind to try and be "cool". Your judgement of me is poor and haphazard. But you keep on making your short little vids. Thank you for watching. ^_^

  • @DaKineUpdate Ha, yeah that's cool, im not saying you suck or anything, im just saying that it would be better if you had a better area, or better editing job, I mean I undestand if you cant get such good shots cuz, you were by yourself, and I get that, cuz I film myself as well, but Im just saying if you did a better editing job or something it would really make it look better, so, sorry, if i made fun of you man, stick with it! Parkour is awesome

  • @TheJoel1313 Parkour is awesome, indeed. It's all history, what's been said. I take it all in stride and use it to build my skills as an editor and a runner. Look out for more videos on the rise.

  • @DaKineUpdate haha, alright cool, thanks bro, yeah imma subcribe to you so, I can see how much you progess in time :)

  • Comment removed

  • it's not bad but.... find better spots!!!

  • damn... he lives in a place where a zombie apocalypse has occurred... there's NOBODY out there...

  • @fallen002a It was 4:45 in the morning once I started filming, nothing but me and the morning bird's chirp.

  • Damn I guess everyone's a critic these days. These comments disgust me. We cant all be David Belles and Livewires. I applaud this guy for his dedication. From what I can tell he was alone due to the fact that the cameras not moving. Most people wouldnt go that far. Great video in my honest opinion. Hes doing his thing and he's sharing it with the world.

  • @NeglectedMelon I'd like to shake your hand, brother. Training alone is so much sweeter and important to me than to have all my space filled around me by a crowd. A few friends on a pleasant occasion is surely something fun, but being alone and disregarding all other thought while falling into a world of oneness is honest good feelings for the body. Knowing that I put all the work in the video from the filming, the action, and the editing makes it that much more of a treasure for me. Thank you.

  • @DaKineUpdate No problem man, keep doing what you do

  • @NeglectedMelon I'm not saying he has no physical talent by any means, I'm sure he's very good. He just doesn't know how to make a visually appealing video...

  • @yootoobnoob123 I welcome you to check out my other videos then. I'm sorry I'm not throwing spectacular kong gainers and ridiculous gym combos that you expect to see from all these videos, but the movements I throw around are efficient enough to get me where I need to go. So when you run, please keep this in the back of your mind. Thanks for watching. ^_^

  • @NeglectedMelon check out my showreel, I am 12, have no one to train with and have no gym anywhere I live

  • @NeglectedMelon Dude I agree. My hat is off to this guy too. He's doing all the moves right and these people are satisfied with his dedication and style.

  • skip to 4:43 for best part

  • @bettis271 I think you mean 4:23, dude. ^_^

  • Whats with the dislikes?

  • he is making do with what he has around him. i feel his pain, my town is about as bland as this one. i like it

  • he took the term train safe to new levels.

  • @XtremeUni1016 Hm, whatever that means. Thanks for watching. ^_^

  • some people arent blessed with living in the perfect parkour town or city

  • @FluidMotionPK1 That's why it's difficult for me to create videos at times, but I feel blessed anyway to be able to live as runner. I never sneeze at my surroundings, I look at a lonely tree stump and properly acknowledge that it yields hundreds of possibilities.

  • @DaKineUpdate Hey man I wasn't directing that as a bad thing towards you. I enjoyed your video, I guess I was just blowing off steam cause I was a little mad about it.

    Keep training man, you work well with what you have.

    Sorry to sound like an asshole

  • @ThoseGuysParkour No worries, brother. I wish you luck in your strive as a practitioner.

  • bro u have good moves, but Parkour videos needs FLOW, running more than vaulting will make the video boring, make sure to make your upcoming video more vaults and less running. People in Parkour community want to see moves and flow, so consider that and make that a positive point to turn your upcoming video to a sick one, much love and keep training.

  • @BahrainParkour Much respect towards your advice and I consider it fully. If you'd like you could check out a few of my other videos. I promise they're not all as this one seems.

  • HEY fatasses i dare u guys to run as long as this guy and do wat this guy can do

  • Why is this video getting so much negative feedback. Sure it doesn't deserve the VOTM but is meant to look like a continuous run. I have a video just like this (not as good) but it hasn't received this much negative feedback!

  • Hey man don't listen to those people saying your video was boring and lame, how all you did was run, hey I bet you all those people dont even do Parkour and if they do then they are not in touch with Parkour obviously they have no hart for what Parkour is and how training is!

  • @TracyParkour Despite what anyone may say, negative or disparaging, I smile knowing that I've earned a spot as VOTM. Thank you for the support and just as much for watching.

  • I've done this before just went out and ran to relieve stress

  • 5 % parkour, 90% running, and 5% hitting poles while running for no reason...

  • @Epicfenrir Yeah, hitting poles never really has a purpose. Either way you look at it, I see it as something free and plucked from my own mind with candid expression while you decide to label it with statistics that all lie in opinion. Thanks for watching anyways. ^_^

  • i thought parkour people were friendly community >.>

  • @BigChiefCris That's what i thought

  • You know, though there is a lot of opinions on this video, I really liked this video. This video underscores the feelings associated with training by yourself. True you may think he's not the best. But I could still see the passion he has for his movement. I think everyone should one day just drop the camera's and just go outside and run..What this guy did was just being free..We should never pick on someone for there expression of their movement

  • @CoilMercurialFYZX I can't spell..I meant their

  • @CoilMercurialFYZX Other than being granted a spot on APK, your comment made my day. The only things in existence that I compete with are myself and the bountiful world of steel, brick, dirt, grass, wood, and asphalt before me. I love every day that I'm given to be able to get up, lace 'em tight and move forward and always a little bit further than before. Love to you and blessings to who you are, where you practice and how your practice. Live free, run free.

  • @DaKineUpdate Thank you. And best Wishes to you

  • parkour is meant to be: fastest way from a to b.

  • @MasterNuss Of course. 

  • 70% Running, 20% Tricks and Flips and 10% Parkour in this video

  • buncha jerks, just train.

    Keep it up man. nice video.

  • @1xACE Cool, my friend. Back at ya.

  • They wouldn't upload my last video but they uploaded this?

    LOL!

  • @ThoseGuysParkour I got lucky I guess. I agree though, you deserve a spot.

  • @ThoseGuysParkour how to send apk a video ?

    can u help ?

  • very good job man!!!! learn sideflip backflip and mores and keep training

  • @gamesc1 I've learned all of those flips, but they're being abused in the art. I didn't want to gum up the video with to much flash and makeup.

  • @gamesc1 Thank you for the feedback, bro.

  • im sorry man. that was terrible. i mean, you had a few cool moves and that was a nice wallrun. but lose the chains and the yoboy clothes man. granted your being yourself, training with all that stuff on holds you back. also, your trying to hard to look cool, wheres your style man? too much running.

  • @ninja2217 Oh well, who I am may upset some but I wish you the best and hope your time practicing is filled with experience and excellence. Good luck.

  • variety and flow are kind of difficult to achieve when most of you surroundings are entirely flat.

  • thumps up if you stopt watching after the first minute

  • Depression

    

  • Boring...

  • c´mon u have to let go urself with parkour u need to give it all... thats not ur 100% and u know that! just put some metal or something that moves u

  • @diosnavajapela Sure... as for the music, this is what I preferred for this particular video. This world isn't in a global accord with a certain soundtrack, so why don't YOU use metal while I lay back with my Moroccan beats.

  • you remind me of an old friend I used to have. i liked the more calmness of the video rather than the more fast paced ones out there. the only thing i would have changed was how much you repeated movements.

    Example: 2:55 to 3:08

    but all in all great video! and congrats on making the VOTM!

    hope to see you on APK

  • great parkour and all but the music kills the vidoe and make it very boring

    u dont have to put what every one using but u must choose a music that work with your movment this was not a good choise...

  • @rorosamy That's simply your opinion. Thanks for watching. ^_^

  • You need the work on the video editing; more cuts and better music. It's parkour! not a sunday affternoon walk. The actual parkour demonstration was ok though.

  • This was a good video no matter how many dislikes there is, doesnt matter if he had flow, in his area there probably isnt areas were you can flow perfectly, i have the same problem, but he pulled of some nice tricks, and if you put him in a good area with good surroundings for parkour im sure the video would be awesome, but what he did at 3:47 that was just gay and pointless, otherwise good video.

  • man u need to run.. and do parkour moves... on the street u know or places really ...whats the word... cool or dangerous.......kinda borin... keep workin on it man u can do it... everybody starts from somewhere... give him a chance....

  • Parkour is for everybody, no level

    It's not a competition "I'm the best"

    You have lost the really Parkour ?
