Beutiful true parkour competion

[mattaobrown]

@RafeKelley MUCH PROPS. Barclay, Rebull art of motion...not representations of parkour. BARELY even freerunning, mostly a tricking comp. Love what you're doing, I'll be subbing now.

[RafeKelley]

Ryan Doyle shattered his leg in the first AOM and won the competition, Gaetan Boulet blew out his knee in the last barclay card, Ryan Houchin feel 25 feet in one comp, Delian demitrov seriously injured his ankle doing a double side flip and then seriously injured his back doing a double bar loser. We have run 7 comps now, not one person has had an injury worse then a cut shin.

@EricTheFreerunBoy This comp was developed to significant degree as response to stuff like AOM and barclaycard. Its percisely because those competitions are dangerous, and don't represent parkour that we believe it is important for parkour communities to take the lead in developing a real parkour competition that reflects the values of parkour and is safe.

Competition, eh? Notions like this that are brought into reality, the reality that is parkour, will ultimately obscure the runner's mind as well their flow. A practitioner of this art can only measured in the aspects of their perception of the philosophy and how adamantly they will abide by the teachings that Belle and Foucan laid out years ago. A runner is perfect, the only flaw that will ever remain is traceur against traceur. If it's all for merriment and togetherness, host a jam instead.

now it becomes stupid... I am not against the big competitions like AoM or braclaycard but this one is stupid its not a big event and its just a speed round?! you know everybody who can walk can take part and many will be injured because they want to be the fastest.... i know these speed events for example at parcouring in germany theres a speed round and a third of the participants get injured .... don´t make to much competitions stop this one before people get injured...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!
