Parkour Thriller Zombies
An amazing new film here. Parkour Thriller Zombies. Starring, written, directed & produced by Paul Maunder. Watch it. Keep an eye out for me (I'm the first zombie and I'm at the back-right during the Thriller dance):Anyway, it's a great film and has had over 10,000 views, 500 comments & 500 ratings in just the first few days. Between you and me, we're aiming for 1,000,000 views within 12 months. So get commenting, rating, favouriting and most of all get sharing!
Huge thanks and congratulations to Paul for producing, to Dean for his efforts with make-up and to everyone else who took part.

Parkour - The Nature Of Challenge
This is the new parkour documentary. It was produced by two good friends of mine; the legendary Paul Maunder and written by the Chairman of the British Parkour Coaching Association, Dave Sedgley. This is truly the greatest parkour documentary we have seen to date, in terms of its content (the words and the movement) and in terms of how well it was produced, putting the word of parkour out there in such a way to put the name of parkour in its proper place. It's the best thing we've ever seen in parkour.
As stated at the start of the film, its purpose is to introduce people to parkour and to correct any misconceptions the viewer may have from past explanations or natural assumptions about what parkour is based on what they may have seen.
It's in four parts and well worth taking the time to sit down, turn off any distractions and just watch and learn. You may want to click the video to be able to watch in HD.

Manchester Weekend
I planned to go and see one of my (now) favourite bands, Motion City Soundtrack, at the Academy in Manchester one Friday night and wanted to make the most of the weekend by staying over and training on the Saturday and Sunday with the Manchester guys. I stayed at Will's house in Macclesfield after the gig and we got the train back into Manchester the next morning and met Dave and Paul and the others for the jam. Then I stayed at Dave's house and watched a load of old parkour videos from the archive on his computer, and ate some home-made muesli. We trained again on the Sunday and went to the gym, did some serious stuff and a bit of messing around to Tenacious D! Check out the video:Labels: Manchester, Parkour

Northern Parkour Gathering 2006

12 Hour Jam
This is a video of my first parkour trip to Manchester, back in December 2005. I was (and secretly still am) really proud of that dash vault over the big wall off the bench! The bail hurt for a week or so...Thanks to Grant and Grassam for filming and editing. I wish you both still trained.
