admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 09:39:29 +0000

Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but shortly after Minh of Germany stepped up to drop his recent reel that’s got everyone talking about his mad flow, the original BARbarian that is Sascha ‘Cionn’ Hauser (UF All Star athlete) from Austria, has just released his latest ‘Choose Life’ video. Whilst it doesn’t feature much in the way of bar work this time around, we think you’ll all agree that his effortless flow and outside the box creativity more than make up for it.

Another ‘millionstone’ reached but this time it’s Jump Magazine that’s in the firing line. We’ve now gone past the 4 million views mark and in order to celebrate, we’re going to lay the cheese on thick n fast by turning every Friday in the month of September to a ‘Freeday,’ where we’ll serve up a selection of random giveaways of UF gear. We’ll do this via our Facebook page so anyone wanting to be included should keep an eye on our wall there for updates. In addition, we’ve now managed to salvage 80% of the data that was lost from our recent laptop fail, so you expect to see issue 7 of Jump Mag released on the 10th of Sept….

Shut Up And Shine

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 22:53:50 +0000

By far the most common kind of email we receive at UF HQ are those from frustrated practitioners stating that their areas suck for Parkour/Freerun. From this point on, whenever we get any more we’ll simply link straight to this video by Minh of Berlin, Germany. In this edit titled ‘Shine’, he gives a perfect example of how to be as creative as posible in a seemingly uninspiring spot. Click here to see.

Glyphmedia Milestone: 20 Million Video Views

admin — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 10:10:05 +0000

Our Glyphmedia channel has just gone past the 20,000,000 mark for videos viewed. This is a first for any Parkour/Freerun organisation on the planet. In recent times we’ve opened it up as a place to spotlight talent from around the World instead of just being focussed on UF athletes. Of course, the easiest thing for us to do would be to post each and every video that’s submitted to us but with tight quality control measures in effect, we make a concerted effort to keep the content levels at a premium. For those videos that do make the grade though, we offer instant exposure and feedback to our ever growing subscription base. We’d like to say a big thank you to all our friends and subscribers for keeping it such an active place and we’ll continue to provide the best service possible.
