Nice one Jesse! Love small technical stuff.

I was half expecting the escalator handle to start pulling you upwards when you landed on it

Nice moves dude! I like how you didn't rush through everything, it made it all the more smooth.

I like your flow man, keep it up. Besides who said parkour has to be hardcore.

I like your editing style in the intro! Very cool.
As far as the training goes, you remind me a little of Tim Pisteur and his style of flow. Very nice. I can imagine that speeding up the movements would look great with practice.

This looked... useful rather than flashy. I liked it immensely .

Thanks for the great responses guys, I'm glad you guys liked it!

on the speed - my goal is to keep my momentum, to go as slow as I have to to move cleanly.

on tim pisteur - his style and spirit really inspire me.

on the editing - it wasn't my editing, but i'll let the artist know his work is well liked.

on usefulness - I believe the key element to effective parkour is body awareness.

Haha, to the casual traceur I could see how it could be a little boring, but to the hardcore traceur...it's amazing. Great job, Jesse!
