right folks, I got a phone call this afternoon from a Polly Sharpe from BBC, & from Kate Usher from Louth Radio expressing their interest in what has caught on SO fast due to TV...
we gotta arrange a time & place (for us all) to meet & give interviews for BBC & Radio, Radio preferably before friday, i`ll check the boards later & i have numbers & email addresses to get back to them for what we`re gettin into.
this is no wind up & i`ll swear a blood oath on that!!

Hello, Just a little word of advice. This may well be an enquiry from a sound journalist with a real interest in showing parkour to people. It may also be a journalist who is going for a sensationalist story and will exploit parkour for a shocking 'headline'. Tread very carefully and if any doubt as to their motives then steer well clear. If you feel the need insists on hearing the finished edit before they go to air. Also measure what you say yourself. Pause before answering any questions and think A) why they're asking B) how people might interpret your answer. Good luck and be careful!

I noticed that the Echo article did not mention much, if anything at all, about safety - This could get kids hurt or anybody else that tries any of this 'Superhero' stuff.
Please do mention something about Safety if we do get on the radio or something, it probably sounds stupid to you, but we don't want to start off badly due to kids hurting themselves and parents complaining.
Thanks, Chaz!

paranoidchild(at)hotmail.com well, i totally agree with the admin dude, should keep the jumps and such low key and try to keep to the athleticism and philosophy of pk, not just the risk factor! and i doubt people would take kindly to seeing the website in its current stolen state..
