I demand to see video footage of this event ASAP

I went to the event today and pleanty of good footage was captured, I was also captured doing a few things, by several different cameramen. I am wondering if they could get in contact with me so I can receive the video footage. My name is obviously David and I was with the guys from "Eau Claire". I have brownish redhair, and I was wearing black pants with two vertical white lines on my pants with an oversized black shirt that says BFG Tech on it with a large picture in the back that says something about "Gamer"

Some of the moves I did include a tic-tac Cat with a fair gap (I'm new and I never tried one before today), I got it recorded from 3 or 4 different camera angles, and it was recorded on campus. I also did a few other things throughout the day that were nice, but we did sooo much, that I can't remember.

I know there will be footage of the event and I may or may not be in it, but if you have the video files, I would really appreciate them being sent to me.

As far as the day went, It was a lot of fun, we had a good turn out of about 40 people or so. Everyone did good and injuries were kept to a minimum.
I'm not the event organizer so I am not gonna add any other additional details right now (don't want to steal the thunder).

I had a great time with all of you guys today, and I look forward to more JAMS.

I know Carcass filled allot, he is making a MN parkour documentary and it will be done in what he told me working on for possibly 6months so we will see. I did get some footage by my camcorder is dumb so not much. I will make a short video of what I got. Such a fun day.

I just wanted to thank everyone who came to the jam this weekend for making it a big success. It was really fun to see so much talent, diversity, and dedication throughout the entire weekend. We had perfect weather, no major injuries, and the cops were awesome! I would have never expected the acceptance that we received from them. I also believe we put Taylors Falls, MN on the map for Parkour in a huge way! 100% nature Parkour.

In any case, it was a pleasure taking part in my first major jam ever (although it was more watching than participating due to a long-term stupid injury), and hope to see you all again in the future.

I know that Clark's documentary won't be done until next spring as Grant said, but hopefully the rest of you (Cloud, Bill, etc) will post your video soon.

Happy training and enjoy the rest of the summer!
-Matt

Once I get my computer back with my editing program I will have a vid up combining National Parkour Day and the Midwest Jam. I didn't get all that much on Saturday because I was doing allot of stuf fand not filming.

Sweaty · « **Reply #72 on:** June 19, 2009, 05:45:27 PM »

I had a great time as well, I just hope next time I'll be able to be there for the whole thing.

Who ever does the write-up, please be sure to include the incident with the fire-drill at the traffic light and how Dave S. almost lost his keys. Or how we thought some random girl was going to trade seats in the car with us.

Don't worry everyone Mindwest Jam/ MN National Parkour day video coming from me today. Will post when done.

Grant (LOTRFreak993) · « **Reply #77 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:35:40 PM »

A video of compiled clips from National parkour Day jam held in Minnesota and clips from Midwest Jam. There are not many clips from either day because I spent most of the day training. Thus the reason why I only made one video. Enjoy

Nice! I'm glad you got the flip chain in there at the end!

Awesome jam, guys. Thanks again for hosting!

Yeah, thanks for the video. I now realize how horrible my form is when I'm trying to flip.
