After what seemed like an endless winter of blisteringly cold winds and wet rails, things seem to be taking a huge turn for the better as we move into Lincs Parkours 3rd Summer together.
I arrived at City Hall early in the morning to find a small handful of tracers including Liam Houlden, Jack Ledbury, Johnny YEAH!, Cobie and new boy Connor from the workshops to name a few. After training here for a mere half an hour, we witnessed a very first in Lincs Parkour history. Kicked from City Hall on a saturday!
After trying to reason with the grumpy policeman i decided it would be best not to kick up a fuss and told everyone they should move on.
Whilst everyone made their way up to the castle, me and Liam made a short detour to Park Court and i attempted the Cat Pass precision there, although a small bail put me off attempting it any more and we preceded to catch up with the rest of the group. Read the rest of this entry »

Well guys, What a Night eh?
Despite a few setbacks, Lincs Parkour still managed to rock it in front of the Energise Live Audience.
Serious props to everyone who took part as most will agree that it was probably one of the most stressful Jam days in LPK history.
My day started off filming some footage of Stu for a Tech project i was doing, which involved Stu running round looking like some outcast from Marvel Comics. And also involved Me wimping out to do a tiny jump about 50 foot up on top of Minds Eye roof top, which cut my filming short haha.
Then me and Stu head up to find everyone else at the green Rails where we trained for a bit then headed off to Dales. Where we crowned Stu the god of Crash Team Racing, and Lol’ed at a “Red Pills” Old video hehe. Then Me, Tumo, Stu, and Pembrey all took a Taxi to North Kesteven to teach.
We arrived pretty early and had the chance to plan our session whilst the poweriser guys still hung about in the Gym. (A damn sight cooler than badminton i have to say :P) and luckily they had already got most of the equipment out. Which made our job 10x easier, and we proceeded to teach the under 13’s session.
We tried to talk to them about what Parkour really was, Some of the Philosophy involved, and some of the Key facts. And it was nice to see that some of the kids did have a slight idea of what Parkour entails, although it will take them a lot of teaching before they truly know what Parkour is, but for a group of under 13’s its a good start.
