Well as m
any of you know, I’m a big fan of creating my Own Videos and Projects and Am currently studying in my Second Year of a National Diploma Media Production course. And its come that time in the course where the projects become a little bigger and more ambitious. And this one quite frankly is going to be my most ambitious yet.
When i was starting out making films as many of you may remember Myself and Jack Grange had a personal project we began work on, called: Lincs Parkour: Forever Forward. The unnofficial sequal to the extremely successful Jump Lincoln. Covering the upsurge in the growth of Parkour in the region since then, the successfulness of our classes. And just really how the community has grown. Well unfortunately due to computer error, all the footage for that was lost around years ago, and the Project died down as i got bogged down with other projects and work. BUT luck would have it, my next unit in my Course is Documentaries. And what better way to revive such a great project than to have my Grades Rely upon its Success!
Now since my film-making experiance was built upon creating simple parkour Videos, to avoid becoming some what of a one-trick pony, i have experimented with everything BUT Parkour in my work. But since this is such a great subject to do the documentary on, and i have already had it planned for the last 2 years, i figured i’d let myself off this time 
The criteria for this project is simple. A 20 minute documentary on your chosen subject (In this case Parkour) So my plan is, 15 minutes of the Video is devoted to the story im telling, how far we’ve come, our successes, failures, everything about us these days and Since 07. Then the final 5 Minutes or so, a spectacular finish with a huge planned run over Lincoln, filmed in beautiful HD.
Now here’s where you guys come in! Obviously i am going to be needing a lot of help to create this project. Ill be needing Interviews, and Jam footage primarily for the first 15 mins, with some class stuff thrown in. Which shouldnt be too hard to organise, but i will need a lot of cooperation from you guys to pull this off. I will organise interviews with people singularly either at the Jam or Prior on the Forum, on This Topic. But what i majorly want is just some good Jam footage, so as of the 4th of January my project officially starts. And im allowing myself a 4 week shooting schedule, which means from that Monday, i really really need 4 solid weeks of good full Jams from you guys. Its a new year and why not start it with a Bang
The run will be arranged at a later date when the bulk of the shooting is done, but i will be using a grouping system at some point, more than likely groups of 3 in different areas etc. So if you guys also want to arrange your groups and prefered areas to be filmed for the run on the Forum too, feel free to Use this Topic too.
This is a huge huge project for me, and i would really appreciate and be grateful for your help in making this happen. My ultimate aim is to TOP the jump Lincoln documentary, so you would be helping create something wonderful.
Oh did i mention a place in the Credits and a Free DVD for EVERYONE who participates too?
Thanks

A meal at Yo-yo’s in Bejiing and hitting the 10,000 readers mark on the blog!
Ho Ho Ho!
Thats right guys, we’ve just recently surpassed the 10,000 mark, on this Blog. Which means that in the short time we’ve been writing in this Blog over 10,000 people have stopped along to have a read of what we’ve been doing. This is a really nice thing to see for all us Blog Contributors who try to keep you as updated as possible with our regular goings on and any important updates for the Lincs Parkour Community. We hope you enjoy our regular ramblings, and look forward to reaching out to another 10,000 readers as soon as possible!
Now regarding my true love, shes always been one for giving me strange gifts, infact a number of them include, 4 Calling Birds, 3 French Hens, 2 Turtle Doves and a Partridge in a Pear Tree. Now as much as i appreciate the gesture, I simply cant handle that amount of birds, All i need is the one Christmas Turkey. BUT on the 13th day of christmas my true love gave me a very nice gift, and that is.
THE LPK ANNUAL CHRISTMAS MEAL!
Yes thats right, its that time of year again for the festivities and celebrating the end of 2009. And what a year its been, with the workshops going from strength to strength, Gaining tonnes of new members and a Brand New Look to the Site. 2009 has been a year to celebrate. And in Traditional Lincs Parkour Fashion, we do it in Style. With the Lincs Parkour Xmas Meal.
In true tradition to be hosted at Yo-Yo’s and Bejiing, this will be the 3rd Christmas meal we have all celebrated together. And looks set to be a joyous evening filled with stuffing our faces. And for us older members, Copious amounts of Drinking in the Evening.
However places are limited to 30 spaces and are running out quick, so if you are wanting to come, make sure you have commented on the topic on the forum or confirmed a place on the facebook event! And please only confirm if you actually are coming!
I look forward to seeing all the old faces there, and a very Merry Christmas to All!
Firstly, We seem to be experiancing a little Domain difficulty since the switch to .com, for some reason the old .net domain still works, but with all the links broken for some reason, so just to clarify this sites OFFICIAL Domain is:
Unfortunately Google is still Linking a lot of people to that domain if your experiancing problems with the site try changing the URL or bookmark or whatever to that one! 
Also some things you fellows at home can do to help, if for example you have a facebook page, or youtube account linked to the old Domain, Changing it to the New one would be huuuuugely helpful as it will help the Official .com domain reach the top spot on google through searches This will help filter out the old domain that seems to be clutching onto the internet as much as it can before it dies haha.
Secondly, many of you may have noticed an absence in Lincs Parkour Videos from yours truely, infact the last one i made was in the summer and the one before that Valentines Day! Well, firstly let me apologise for not keeping you all entertained, Most of you are subscribed to me on Youtube, as well as a number of others around the world, well let me be the first to tell you my videos shall be making a glorious return in beautiful HD quality. Being on a media course i tend to get very picky with my video work and after using the gorgeous Sony Cams in College, i coulnt go back to grainy small crap SD Cameras, So i have brought my self the Kodak Zi6, which you will be familiar with if you’ve seen some of Joe Hicks Work. So expect some bountiful and beautiful HD videos very soon, if your not familiar with my work then check out my Youtube Channel and look forward to making some more in the future!
Thats all Guys, Thanks

This Saturday was a big surprise for me, I wasn’t expecting the community to turn out together in the way that it has. and this is largely due to the open Saturday sessions we are holding at NK
there were so many old faces, and many new ones/ people we haven’t taught in over a year and I’m glad that we have all come back together to practice what we love (in case you missed the point of the blog that’s Parkour/FreeRun)
so after my knee packed in I started taking photo’s of the action and here is what i got
(click to enlarge)
PS: If you want to join in please do, the sessions run every saturday from 4-6 at north kesteven sports centre. for more information click HERE
