Greenbuild Expo Parkour Performance

Thursday, 08 November 2007

Wednesday night, local Chicago traceurs Moses, Frosti, Cloud, Hak, and Ando performed Parkour at the Greenbuild Expo afterparty. Greenbuilding is a new concept of architecture and engineering where its aim is to build energy efficient and environmentally safe buildings. Nau , based out of Portland Oregon, was one of the many sponsors for the event that provided clothing for all the performers. Thier clothing is state of the art made of corn, pop and plastic bottles, and many other safe materials. Bringing parkour into the mix, it was a great combination for a good cause and fun night.

Did they perform parkour on the architecture they were designing? If so, i think its great that parkour could possibly be included as an intended use for residential and commercial buildings.

Unfortunately we didn't really get to see the architecture concepts. we performed at the after party, the expo was earlier. we had two sets of scaffolding set up underneath a balcony and next to a staircase, which gave us a ton of options for combos, and the NAU clothing is awesome!
