Penza, fellows! Rispekt you
Special Friday and draft Dashi Sarkisian journalist and photographer Ksenia Kolesnikova "Subcultures-fresh» about ten representatives of the latest trends - unlike, strange, but quite convincing. Industrialschiki, fashion, nyuskul emo, emo oldskul, steal, fashion-hop, hipsters, and fruts chavy. The hero of the second series - Alex tracer.
Alex Chigretsky, 21, a student MPGU, project manager ParkourCreation:
- Parkour - the art of rational move. This ability to instantly assess the situation. This is to overcome its borders, not only in training but also in life. Each lesson - it is self-improvement, both physical and moral.
I can not say exactly why parkour has appeared just now. In my opinion, in the 1970's, for example, the main thing that agitate the minds - music. In the late 1990's and now? Sports, Youth and extreme. And parkour just turned on the wave. He became more popular and because of the fact that here no matter how much you earn: we do not need expensive equipment or machinery. In the community of tracers can be 13-year-old boy, who grew up in a poor area, and 30-year-old businessman, who has several million euros in a Swiss bank. They will communicate on equal terms. Moreover, they will be part of one team, and it is quite possible that the teenager will train 30-year-old uncle.
Parkour - a team discipline. Virtually any tracer is in a group of like-minded, and only a few prefer to do and exist separately from the rest. Often the tracers out of training and more friends, so often walk together, go to concerts and cinema.
Women in parkour - a relatively rare phenomenon, but they are. Most of them are involved in parkour as a sort of fitness, to maintain shape. Only those classes much more interesting and varied than in conventional gyms. There are girls who are passionate about parkour seriously, regularly trained and have good skills, but to meet a real girl-tracer is practically impossible.
One of the main rules of Parkour: to be strong to be useful. Need a firm, unshakable belief that all team members come to help in any situation. Tracers can be useful for society as a whole. Now the ideal image of the person involved in parkour - free is a romantic, a kind of Robin Hood, for which there are no borders and movement, and in everyday affairs, which is free, but at the same time, sensitive and willing to help. Such values of Parkour - from its founder, David Belle, whose father was a fireman and had a lot of awards for his exploits in the rescue operations.
But not only is influenced by the principles of parkour. "The Art of rational move, many borrowed from the" natural method ", developed by a French naval officer, George Herbert. He traveled the world, and being delighted with the plastics and skills of movement of an African tribe, has developed a "natural method", based on rock-climbing, running, coordination, weight lifting, swimming and jumping.
Subculture tracers appeared slightly later than the emergence of the parkour. In 1997, David Bell first appeared on French television screens in a small fragment of reportage. The founder of parkour talked about his "invention", and also demonstrated it in practice. This had the effect of the bomb. Parkour was first known in Europe and then worldwide. At that time, David Belle, Sebastien Foucan and their friends founded the first team under the name "Ямакаси", which translated from one of the languages of the Congo means "strong in body and spirit." Hard to say, would be parkour is, if Belle and Foucan did not come up with. But certainly something like this would arise, because this is a great output of energy and is very "catchy" hobby. In addition, a Jackie Chan, and parkour, perhaps, could appear on his movements.
We can assume that in Russia began with the opening parkour website team The Tracers (October 1, 2002). Media contributed to that very quickly caught on, the term "parkurschiki, although tracers did not recognize until now. Because movies about parkour, and the boom in the press on the mass of teenagers poured into the streets, trying to perform without preparation items you want to train for months. Increase in the number of injuries, can often be faced with bullying by such psevdotreyserov. Therefore, by 2007, many who thought that Parkour is related to vandalism and a stupid waste of time. But these tracers never write or paint on the walls. Among those involved in parkour seriously taken to respect others' property. They also do not drink or smoke during training. And rarely have bad habits.
Most tracers can be found in the subway station Prospekt Vernadskogo "," Chertanovskaya, ALEKSEEVSK, "Kon'kovo", "Sparrow Hills" and "Frunzenskaya. But in other parts of tracers also train - where there is no marble, tile: for our classes is very poor coverage.
In parkour there is no list of compulsory movements, such as in the gym. When the tracer is running and before him there is an obstacle, he overcomes his motion so that the most effective in this situation and most of all right for this tracer (in the structure of the body of endurance physical training). Parkour teaches reasonably respond to the difficulties encountered, adequately themselves and their level of physical development. The body should progress smoothly. The idea is to constantly work on quality, rather than on force.
Clothes should contribute to this maximum, to be comfortable, and the label is totally unimportant. Tracers prefer costumes from natural fabrics, not bolonevye. Trousers should be very free, so they were easy to jump. This habit extends to everyday clothing. All this can be bought in any store. My pants, for example, "Decathlon". Someone buys Reebok or Nike, but there they are quite expensive, sorry to spoil them in training. And because we're falling, smearing, we can catch up on something. In the summer we sometimes train in shorts.
Tracers are often robes with a hood, because it's convenient. Especially if during training the rain. When it was 5, has to wear a hat: in the process of sweating head loses a lot of moisture, and to engage in such a temperature is definitely cold.
Backpack should not hinder the passage of the route, so it is usually flat, no extra pockets, locks and laces. It put only the most necessary things: money, phone, travel by subway and keys. Find a backpack is not easy, but if you search, then almost every known brands you find the correct model. Mine, for example, the company New Balance.
Sneakers we wear the usual cross-country: they better start from the walls, jump, climb and, of course, to run. Some tracers deal of fighting in sneakers or bare feet. Most democratic model for the price of sneakers manufactured by Kalenji. They cost only 500 rubles, and can hold about three months.
Each tracer as a bright personality, likely will have its own chip feature. We love interesting hairstyles. This can be dreadlocks or pigtail. Tracers are creative people often make videos of Parkour. Usually the elements are removed from multiple takes. Keep up with tracers, to film the passage of the entire course, the outsider could not. Exit - this portable camera, like me. It is available through Actioncams.ru, for example. Designed specifically for athletes. A recording device I put in a backpack. Interesting moments sometimes spread on YouTube.com. Passage route usually takes 4-5 minutes, which consume more power than the dimensions of a two-hour workout.
Most movies are accompanied by some dynamic music, the choice depends on the editor. If you share a very rude, cutting off individual tastes in music hobbies tracers can be divided into three areas, two of which relate to the protest, freedom (rap and punk), and one - with adrenaline (electronic music). Sometimes tracers train with the player. But when, for example, is set to jump, and track changes, it knocks - and in parkour everything should be in harmony, it's more than the ability to move correctly.
Userbars use now a lot of users, and some of them change every day. I decided to combine the most attractive userbars on Parkour and put them here. They were all loaded on the websites, they are freely distributed, ie the authors know that their graphic work runs on the internet freely, hence the copyright, I do not violate. Total 42 pieces and get to choose is what.

This world have a talented people. For example, the author of the blog «Far aggression» project «Plasticine Parkour». A young man named Yegor did a parody of video Parkour-downs in comic form. The main character - Plasticine fat man who killed unhappy about the wall and falls into the most horrific poses.
Video did not like its content, but by execution. You imagine how much need to spend time to remove the frame, each motion, remove the auxiliary means and the least little bit to maintain the laws of physics. As the author says, the video intended for 5 minutes, but got only one and a half, as the computer can not withstand loads during installation. On how to create a video of certain events.
That video of Moscow tracers calls, who had gathered to play April 11 in an area Vorobyovy Gory. I hope that in this weather, people are more engaged in the street, as well as early spring, in my opinion, perfect for this time. Shoot video, and spread to contact us. The most interesting to appear on the main page.
In the video are:
Евгений Basik Басалаев
Арсений Heretic Сермягин
Никита C.Tr Максимов
Анна Lapotuska Малюга

Blane be announced, right on the Parkour Generations, and not on pinwc.com. The new text does not have the technical or training data, but rather as an essay on the theme «My training day» in London with a group of beginners treyserov. It is a pity that Chris throw his blog, though, perhaps the move to the capital of England, he had no time. Then why promise a regularly updated feed of your blog? Read:
A familiar song is interrupting my conversation with a man who has no face. I linger for a while in some middle ground between dream and reality, wondering where I am and what day it is as I fumble for the snooze key on my phone.
The following takes place between 8:00am and 9:00am.
I'm showered and contain significantly more weetabix, oats and bananas than I did one hour ago. I find myself jogging past a church, the only person in sight wearing a smile as I weave between frowning commuters towards the tube station.
The following takes place between 9:00am and 10:00am.
I'm standing near to a pub that is more often than not occupied by men who particularly enjoy the company of other men. I'm still not certain why this has become the unnofficial meeting place for those about to add yet another crimson stamp upon the Vauxhall walls, but it's something I've never felt the need to question.
The following takes place between 10:00am and 11:00am.
I've been running for a while now. Sweat trickles down my face and all I can hear is a dozen pairs of worn shoes colliding with grass and asphalt in every direction around me. We started together and we will finish together, just as we always do.
The following takes place between 11:00am and 12:00pm.
Midday is about to greet us and I wonder if I've injured the ant that I've blown way off course as I exhale out of yet another press up. I'm probably hurting more than the ant actually. I've squatted, traversed, pushed, pulled and crawled my way through the last sixty minutes and my shouts of determination have blended with those of my friends to create a symphony, a chorus of pain.
The following takes place between 12:00pm and 1:00pm.
We're stretching, having recently done more muscle ups than any of us thought we were capable of, the arms no longer feel... well, anything. My heart is beginning its journey to a resting pace again and I look around to see tired but contented faces.
The following takes place between 1:00pm and 2:00pm.
Lunch is over and I'm upside down in a park, practicing handstands and balancing in the sun with an old friend.
The following takes place between 2:00pm and 3:00pm.
I'm on my own. Soon after a tube journey that greeted me with the usual looks of disinterest or curiosity at my dirty clothes and bleeding hands, I'm crouched on a wall trying to convince my body that it can reach the branch that teases me in the nearby tree. If I don't, there's a fair chance I'm going to get hurt since I'm high up and concrete is unforgiving at the best of times. But I will make it, I must make it. I've done a hundred jumps like this in the past, perhaps not at this height but the height is irrelevant if you make the jump. And I will make the jump.
The following takes place between 3:00pm and 5:00pm.
I'm on the last set of a series of jumps that I've been doing in quick succesion to build power in my legs. My arms are weak from a brief one-armed pullup test and I check my watch.
The following takes place between 7:00pm and 8:00pm.
I'm indoors, rotating my joints and loosening up once again along with thirty or so students. We prepare our bodies for what is to come for half an hour or so and then I position some obstacles in a half-improvised manner. As I watch the expressions of doubt turn to joy on a new practitioner's face, I realise that we never lose that feeling of pleasure in our success upon overcoming our fears. The relief on the man's face is a reflection of my own only a few hours ago as I caught the branch. Is this the most addictive part of our discipline? Is it the surpassing of our fears that brings us back time after time? I think about it a little more as the air in the room grows warmer still and the tired limbs attempt one last almighty effort.
The following takes place between 9:00pm and 10:00pm
Some of those around me might argue that the warm down would make a fairly good warm up. All at least would agree the stretching is a welcome relief. I shake hands, smile and say my goodbyes to old friends, new friends and strangers who I'm sure will grow to be friends in time. At last, the physical demands of today are over.
The following takes place all day, every day.
The Oyster card is at the bottom of my bag when the bus arrives.
The following takes place between 10:00pm and 11:00pm.
I find myself sitting down and eating. Checking emails and wishing I had more time to reply to some of them, I update my diary for the week once again before feeling the shower wash another day off my back. Blood, dirt, sweat and something unknown is dissapearing in to the dark abyss below me and I stand there a little longer than is necessary, allowing my muscles time to relax in the cool water.
The following takes place between 11:00pm and 12:00pm.
I turn off the light and try to get back to my bed without bashing my knee on something. I still haven't quite perfected the whole pitch-black navigation thing in this new room of mine but I'm getting there. I'm almost asleep before my head touches the pillow.
The following takes place between 7:00am and 8:00am.
A familiar song is interrupting my conversation with a man who has no face. I linger a while in some middle ground between my dream and reality and wonder where I am and what day it is, fumbling for the 'snooze' key on my phone...
On 11 April this year, at 10:03 Moscow time, on the main Parkour forum Ukraine was the mixed message that, in the Ivano-Frankovsk banned Parkour. According to witnesses, police patrols detain tracers and take them on the day of ZCTU and also asked to talk about other «jumper-vandals», that «tool» in a given area. But that's not all, at all, so-called «violators» penalty for mass vandalism. Such cases, as it turned out, there are not only in the Ivano-Frankivsk, but also in Kharkiv and Dnipro.
April 12, the Ukrainian broadcaster Channel STB made very sad to Ukraine tracers message - «Parkur officially forbidden». So here is simple and convincing.
Now look above written information. Firstly it is totally up to date, requiring a thorough and objective inspection. tracers might like to take the ZCTU for an administrative offense, or for entering private land. But - so the events were observed in several cities, said that some of the systemic approach of the executive branch. In response - second in front of us develops a clear misunderstanding of and disrespect for the people involved. What actually is notorious vandalism? On this issue, according to a Ukrainian tracers, guardian of the order have not been able to give a clear answer. However, tracers now equate to conventional attacked by vandals?
Quote of the correspondence tracers Ukraine:
aile: almost a week ago a friend told me that the cops ran after them, the type that tracers catch. Just an hour later I was in the yard squad cops and said I do not know where the jump-type yamakisi, and how long they are going. I said that do not know what we have ...
taile: the next day the same story, only I had asked why the catch?
Ar@mis: Uh-huh
taile: I answered that because bastards all scrap topchut just planted lawns, ports painted benches and benches, all the same city are preparing for holidays
Ar@mis: Hmm ...
taile: yesterday caught 5 of these ... in Police car, and taken away. simply there, and this factor is that, seeing the cops, begin to flee the small, or that, or this ...
Ar@mis: do you think this is the reason?
taile: ment to do that? they too are starting to run low ... I do not think I know .... and I know already because of all those ...
in my eyes broken benches, even the windows smashed, run out on other people's balconies, knocking at the window and fled. Well, who can enjoy it?
I will jump, not even fear .. because I do not break anything and does not damage, and all will be able to calmly explain
Ar@mis: I am afraid that they would be asking too much if you find that you fit within the description ...
taile: I am afraid that too ... ..
Time for that matter, why not outlaw scooter, sk8ters and other members of an extreme subculture? It is also somewhat vandals, for example, ever deleted handrails hands of their cause. Finally, - the third such statements on TV is to believe in the same, how would you have believed in the invasion of alien race to Earth. By personal experience working on television to say that it was said it was for the red word, so that people watched and believed. Grab the official ban and a social mechanism, as the youth movement in a modern society with a democratic form of government is simply impossible, because it is a direct violation of constitutional rights. Therefore, the Ukrainian treyseram not much boggle such illusory, and perhaps even imaginary threat. But if you are - so people came in the form, it should be courteous and clearly explain what you do best and try to solve this problem diplomatically. Believe me, you are polite, courteous, and you just do not forget about it.
And finally let me finish the old Latin phrase - «Consultor homini tempus utilissimus», which means «time - a useful guide man». So, wait-see friends.
