Event Description

Massive West Coast Jam! WRAP-UP here!

Saturday May 23rd during Memorial Day weekend BAparkour and PKCali would like to bring ALL the West Coast communities together for a Jam in San Francisco. San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area are among the best places for parkour in the nation. There are training grounds galore and friendly hosts to show you around. We hope to bring traceurs from Southern California, Washington, Oregon, British Columbia and beyond to San Francisco in order to establish a stronger bond throughout the West Coast.

On May 23rd there will be an all day session spanning five locations including WWII bunkers, a wooded trail run, school campuses, and concluding with a big barbecue at Golden Gate Park. On the days surrounding the main jam there will be satellite sessions that anyone can attend.

That was awesome.
Definitely props to the guys who made it all happen, really.
Cris and I have been trying to find somewhere to meet good people and have something to do.
And here we've found ourselves surrounded by great people and a new sport to call home. And currently I suck at it, which leaves me lots of room to grow and I'm excited about that.
So here's to climbin' on shit for many years to come.

Cheers

That was amazing. A lot of variety in the locales, interesting people (and lots of them too), great burgers and fun times.

Man my legs hurt.
