The guys from Tempest Freerunning, Paul Darnell (PD) and Andy Causey (AC) went on a road trip from east to west. It started with a jam session in DC on Feb 20th, ending in L.A. on March 3rd.
The tour was a great success, PD and AC are two of the greatest guys on the scene, and much fun was had, many good times shared. We salute these guys for what they've done to connect people across the coutnry.
APK is gratetful to have had the opportunity to help out with their adventure.
The tour was amazing! We met so many gracious and very cool people. It was such a good experience. I loved being on the road and jamming with everyone. I can not give enough thanks to all of those who housed and fed us. That was such a welcome blessing. Big thanks to M2 and American Parkour for the free shirts, tracking our progress and helping us get intouch with sooooo many people. This would not have been this successful without M2's help.
AC and I our in LA and we should have a place to live within the next day. Finally a place to call our own. I can't wait to unpack and start looking at all of the footage we accumulated.
Big thanks to everyone and keep an eye out for Tempest Freerunning, the best is yet to come!

I'm glad to see so many people want us to come to their town and run. Know that the only reason we aren't going to every city in the U.S. is due to lack of funds at this point. So, we have to kinda keep a straight line out to Cali. Don't worry though. In no time at all we'll be going on another tour and we'll run with EVERYONE!

If you guys ever think about coming South of I-80 on another tour...say using I-40, check us out at the OKC/OU scene. It'd be great to jam with y'all!
