BAA Youth Games Opening Ceremony Video

Friday, May 25th, 2007

Hi there,

Last week a group of parkour practitioners from Glasgow and Edinburgh got together to perform a demo for the BAA Youth Games Opening Ceremony. Charlie, Swifty and myself were representing Edinburgh while Grant, BJ and Scott were showing off the Glasgow skill base.

We managed to get it filmed in proper “pirate-movie-fashion” with people walking past and some blokes head blocking the action all the way through, lol!

Edinburgh Leisure also filmed the event (more proffessionally I suspect) although I’ve yet to receive a copy so you’ll have to make do with the following link

Cheers,

Howdy,

Edinburgh Parkour is growing older and wiser! Here marks our lovely little second birthday!

Feel free to post your thoughts (or send me cake) in the birthday forum topic.

Safe training, and best wishes for the year ahead!

Tig and Christmas

Sunday, December 17th, 2006

Hey folks,

It’s been a long time since this place was updated but here we are. Firstly, I’d like to thank Jerome from Parkour.NET for uploading one of our all-time favourite ED-PK videos onto his popular Parkour Videos website. He doesn’t seem to have too much information about Tig 2 so I sent him an email with a quick overview of the details. For now, it’s listed as 2 Traceurs playing Tag game.

Secondly, it’s that time of year again. I’d just like to wish everyone in and around ED-PK a very happy holiday season and safe training in the cold, wind, rain, hail, snow… Make sure to burn off the calories from too many mince pies!

Cheerio,
Peter
