Long time!

Wow! I can't remeber all the things I've done recently.. but there's something I want to say.... Evolution.. maybe that's the word that can describe the last weeks.

I have noticed lots of advances in almost all my moves and thanks to all those people that had helped me, such as Jorge, Daer, Shai, and in general all the crew.

Well, about Urban Runners, we are shooting the next part of the documentary.. so wait for it soon :)

Here I put the second teaser... hope you enjoy it

Frustrating!

Well I must start last Saturday Shai, Duende and I went visiting the Monos son we trained a bit with them... well we did some precisions, passemurailles with vaults on top (side vault and cat pass) some running arm jumps amazing to notice I hadn't practice those before and they were really easy to me I definetely improved my armjumps... and did some of the armjumps with one arm and found it easy well the first one had a rough landing but the next ones were quite nice!


Then we did some other pasemurailles, this ones were tall it was quite easy getting to the top the rock was good so you didn't slip I practiced about 5 times and noticed and advanceon my dexterity when climbing :)


We said good bye to the monos and wandered around we trained some long cat passes and some vaults on some picnic tables or whatever we focused on dexterity.


On Sunday a local channel went to our training, but I had the flu and felt terribly bad so I couldn't do much. They just filmed me some vaults, underbars, pasemurailles and small interview.. hope to see it soon.


Today Wednesday was a really frustrating day! God I did some precisions and trained a bit with the newbies of the team.. helped them with their distention and with their armjumps.. then we went practicing the rolls and some small jumps... but then I don't know why I tried a cat pass+ precision .. I've done others even more difficult but don't know what happended with that oh I really got angry... I tried and tried and just kept falling on one ft. and the other one? well it just kept on going directly to the ground but after lots of times I just got a terrible hit on my right knee and a great feeling of frustation.


Tomorrow I'll try again hope to do it.

Busy days


On Friday we went practising a bit.. in fact we had to plan what to do for an exhibition we were holding on Saturday.. the problem is that we needed some structures and the guy who had to bring the structures to the place wasn't ready and we had to wait for almos 3 hours! Well during that time Shai, Daer, Sam, Shak, Helu, Akira, Spider, Ardilla, and me went eating some food and we just wandered around doing some vaults... when we al finally arrived to the place we put the structures so we could practise a bit.. mainly some vaults....

Saturday.
Daer, Ardilla, Gato, Spider, Jebus and I met at the subway ... then we went altogether to the place... when we arrived there we checked the place, the audience and the structures to be in the right place... well after an hour we started... Ardilla, Phoenix and I gave a brief explanation of what parkour is, its phylosophy and some other points... then we started suddenly eveybody was making vaults.. explaining them and finally some tricks of course mentioning the difference between them and parkour.

Sunday.
The gang went training lol! The usual Sunday gang.. and the twins... and Chisse, the three of them spent long time far away from the training and now they came back nice to see old faces!
I made an arm jump, an standing one... to some well I don't know how to call but they were some kin of tubes and wow it was quite long Helu tried it to and we both got it... suddenly I did one and a part of the structure just came down! Everybody started laughing but I really got scared... In a momen I just felt I was about to get trapped into the structure.
Then we went to another place in the university and tried some combinations.. in fact I couldn't do much.. I hate my knees they really hurt and I can do simple things.. if I run they hurt, if I jump is the same... in fact whenever I do anything! Gotta go to the doctor tomorrow see what he has to say....
But wow the bad thing was that Helu fell down.. he was doing some cat passes the problem is that the railing was on the edge of a wall.. and the landing place was about 3 meters down... well Akira, Spider and I were practising some vaults and we stopped to see him jump... I must say hte cat pass is Helu's bets movement.. but something went wrong and we jus saw his body completely parallel to the ground and his arms and legs moving.. suddenly a big sound.. he hit the ground and we all went running to see what had happened... he was lying down on the floor... he was pale and just telling he was OK!
He was ok???? not really the good thing was that he managed to turn around so his face didn't hit the ground but his shoulder did.. we put him some vendages and don't know what else aclled his parents and went to the hospital.
It was nice to know he had no broken bones.. just a big stroke jaja or sth like that.... well now he has to rest for 3 weeks at least.

Gonna miss you HelĂș

HelĂș some time ago... playing.. as usual

Feelings

Wow lots of feelings are pressed right into me!

Well let's start.. my training has been really hard but filled with stisfactions. I've tried to improve all my movements and well I could see I'm managing to achieve so.

Sunday training was nice.. just working on some running armjumps, vaults and improving balance (yeah), the guys were by their side so most of the time I was alone... tiring.. but after hundred of repetitions my vault got more dexterity.

Tuesday was good!
Finally that wall wasn't anymore a problem... got an excellent pase muraille+cat pass on top... great that really made me reflect.. training is everything well apart from mind.. and got anther tic tac+ armjump. Long jumps... distention jumps, etc. I was training for about 4 hours and finally went eating Chinese food with Daer.

Wednesday.

Centro Medico! Love that park.. good just good. lots of strenght exercises... parkour just a bit...
That 360 was great... well except for an odd attempt where I hit my knee with the wall..
And well terrible knees ache... that old pain came again maybe because cold wind came to our place.. lol I had to go home alone kind of sad and really hurt... had some misunderstandings with Daer and that made my day even sadder... I hate my knees pain and that makes me angry ... misunderstandings+me being angry= not so good results....

Hope tomorrow will be a better day...
