The only real motivation for this video is to keep tabs on my progression. I want to make sure I document my journey in parkour and freerunning as much as possible, you know, so my grand-kids will have something that proves I wasnt always paralyzed from the neck down, lol.
This video was filmed by my girlfriend Linnie, Josh "Fu" Birkins, and myself via tripod/jamming my new camera in a fence to hold it still. Halfway through filming I suffered a bit of a wrist injury and had to take it easy for a few months, but I tried to come back full swing and finish this project as best I can. Hopefully from now on I will keep up with my progression a little closer and have a new video every couple of months for you all! Keep training, be safe, and dont take life too seriously, its hard to have fun that way!
very very good stuff, loved the guys face after the wall plant about a minute and a half in - priceless

A little bit of a deviation from the high-def wallpapers, but I couldn't pass up this photo taken by Tyson Cecka that was in the July 7th POTW gallery. The saying is one I'll never forget from when I saw it on a t-shirt at the first PKUSA in NY years ago. I believe it was Ductmonkey, the creator of PDQ, who was wearing it!
