Since the new site launched we've enjoyed the benifits of new hosting, and so we're able to not just host our members videos, but also offer you more widely reknowned videos from around the world, so that we may all learn from how the more experienced traceurs move.

The second video to be featured is Generation Yamakasi, a French documentary with subtitles:

This time it's not about Parkour, but the similar art of Yamakasi. It's great stuff, the interviews are awesome and it's well worth the download. Lasting just over an hour, it manages to fit everything in from the history, training as children, how it developed, the philosphy, the training, newbies, and more than a little action too.

A fantastic representation & media piece, nothing's left out and it's all done in depth. The director obviously took his time to explore the art of Yamakasi properly and in doing so makes the 'Jump' series look amateur in comparison. Another essential video for anyone wishing to explore parkour in depth, I recommend this to everyone regardless of the fact it's about a different art.
