Salamanca tricking a success!

Sun Sep 27, 2009 1:25 am // 1 comment // Yaro

So on Saturday the 26th a few people from FMT gathered at Salamanca to train some tricking & freerunning, as well as a few people who came down for support (<3). We ended up having a good time, getting some new tricks happening outside and drawing quite a crowd. I think this means that we are at the stage where we can train outside off plyo flooring and be entertaining!

This might seem like a little step, but it also might be a preview of what's to come!

THE MEGAJAM 2.0!

Sat May 23, 2009 4:31 pm // 1 comment // Keene

Was a success. Although we got kicked out of Hobart College almost straight away.

We progressed down to Mt Nelson Primary, from there to the Uni bar, then spent a bit of time hanging on some walls with some Anime fan club.

Total turn out was I do believe 12 people. Good to see some youngsters coming along too. Really happy to see some new blood.

Complete story can be found in Keene's blood.

Thank you for all who attended, your participation will be rewarded.

With sore legs tomorrow...

Sensationalised The Mercury article

Thu May 21, 2009 12:58 pm // 0 comments // Yaro

As some of you are aware, todays (21st May) The Mercury published a negative article, pointing out that there are factions who would like to "ban" us training parkour and freerunning.

The article can be found online here:

The comments are very positive, and actions have been taken to rectify the misunderstandings posted.
