PROJEKT 7 - Seven Years of Training
« on: November 03, 2010, 09:38:09 AM »
PROJEKT 7
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LA-4YWfymg

My name is Andrew 'Syn" Obenreder. My training in Parkour and journey in movement started November 13, 2003. "PROJEKT 7" is the result of that and marks my 7th year of training.

I'd like to thank my family, friends, and anyone who supported me over the years. Special thanks to Becca Kapral (amazing girlfriend), James Phillips, Justin Oakes, Vinnie Coryell, Max Henry, Dan Lescher, Justin Ganguly, Noah Mittman, Vito Pelino, Cody Bolen, and Daniel Leviyev for helping me with the production. I'd also like to thank the rest of my family, Team Sanjuu, for all your love and support and an extra special thanks to our managers Paradise Gray and David Spittel for everything they have done for us.

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM IS MORE THAN WELCOME! I did not make this video for anyone but myself. It is to show my progression in movement as well as film making. I only post my "PROJEKTS" because people are interested in watching them and I honestly don't care what others think. If you like it, thank you. If you don't, I'm sorry, you didn't have to watch it :)

Hope to train with everyone soon! Thanks and MUCH LOVE!

Haha, great video, Syn, I love your movement. A lot of diversity and creativity. Congrats on 7 years of great training. I'm looking forward to seeing more of you in the future :)

And I like your tail; you look like Chau Belle :P

Edit: I can tell that you're really having fun with your training, and you absolutely enjoy what you do. Good to see, man :)

This is by far the most enjoyable parkour/freerunning video I have ever watched. Editing, movements, music, everything...kudos to you. I loved every bit of it.
Determination is the wake up call to the human will. Remember that.

Do you think Lance Armstrong gave up? No.

I agree.  I think this is my new favorite vid: fun, elegant, fluid, mesmerizing, and the movements and skillwork are equally so.  I really like your style and seemingly effortless flow.  Well done indeed.

Does anyone else notice that his smiling face looks very much like Oleg's?? I just can't miss the resemblance.

Otherwise, I REALLY enjoyed this video. Playful parkour, awesome music, high quality cam and editing. Thanks for sharing! :D

Thanks everyone! And about the faces and such...
I've always been goofy, it's just me...
But I also did spend a good long while training with Oleg, so I picked up on some extra ridiculousness :)
Like the "Eeeeeeee, Gatusso, eeee you know? let me ride you eh?" That was my bit of Oleg coming out. Haha.
But thanks again everyone. Hopefully, I will get to train with you all soon :)

Thanks brother! :)
I need to get out there and train before winter hits.
