Since announcing that tickets for the Barclaycard World Freerun Championships are free, we’ve been inundated with requests to find out more info. As stated in our video edit, tickets will be available via Facebook but the ticketing mechanism has yet to be engaged. This will be done within the next 1-2 weeks and once it rolls, we expect all the 9000 allocated spots to fly out like hot cakes. To stay up to date with news as it happens regarding tickets, make sure you are registered as ‘a fan’ on our facebook page here at: www.facebook.com/urbanfreeflow. The very second that they become available, we’ll send out a circular notification informing all registered users on our site. *Please be warned that once the tickets are gone, they are gone. This really will be a first come first served affair, so if you’re able to make it to London on the 15th of August, don’t miss out on the most ambitious Freerun event ever staged anywhere in the World.

When thinking of the global scene and all the countries standing up to be represented, Hungary isn’t one of the first to spring to mind. In fact, very little by way of pics or videos have filtered out from there in recent years. Well we can report that the scene is in fact, alive and kicking with pockets of dedicated activity there. Here’s a 2009 training video filmed mostly in Budapest and Kaposvár. Click the ‘read more’ link for the video. Read more…
