"Freerunners are like a kids on the playground,” says world-class freerunner, Jason Paul. “They run around, try new things and test out their limits.” Jason’s fascination for his sport is still as vibrant today as it was back in 2005 when he first caught the free-running bug.

One day, his best bud came round clutching a video tape that, unbeknownst to him, would change Jason’s life forever. That tape was a documentary on Parkour. From that day on, Jason saw the world in a new light – rooftops suddenly became pathways and obstacles became opportunities.
