@NashiE I guess it’s about Freerunner with Ryan Doyle among others… I didn’t see it yet, but jokes seem to be obvious… anyway I liked more the previous episode ‘Jesus will catch her’ :)… and this flame towards Ryan is a bit exaggerated :)…
@Nashie not sure if I understood your question :D… anyway the fact is, that parkour in movies is used for entertaining purposes, the same way that few fighting movies care about philosophy behind martial arts. Due to this, and ‘modern film making’, that use very shallow logic, story and characters… the movie cannot be a good PK representation, and yet it uses names like Parkour and Freerunning, as well as actors fame in our community to promote itself. Nothing really shocking or new, but it can spread a wrong idea about PK to people that would like to start training.
Jan – but to be fair, the comic also makes fun of the exaggerated displays of rage by parkour purists like myself… our impotent little screaming rants which accomplish nothing =P
Is this referring to any movie inparticular?

@Jan so is this saying parkour in movies are bad or parkour in that movie is disgraceful?

@Jan sorry for the poor grammar I was in a rush when writing the last question but your response has answered what I wanted to know thanks
Is that a shin vault I see?

@Ruzkin I agree with you 🙂
The more I read these the more I’m convinced Pava is following me around to write PK instructors lines haha.
