FRIDAY SEP 29 - CHALLENGE NIGHT

7:00PM – 9:00PM at Origins Parkour Gym | 2655 Main Street, Vancouver.

This is an all levels event (age 7+). A jam-style event where everyone under this roof can join in the fun, take their shot, and rally each other on to conquer them challenges. Now, reckon what them “Skills Challenges” are? It could be one or more described moves that have to be done on one or more structures. Examples: a precision jump from one box to another, a swing from one bar to cat hang on a wall, a series of strides on beams in to a vault over a box, etc.

STICK’n TOURNAMENT

3:00PM – 5:00PM at “Old Alley”

Can you stick it to a ledge? Test your grit with some friendly rounds of STK! Here how it goes: you and your opponent, you pick a precision landing challenge. If you land it clean as a whistle on your first shot, well, your opponent, they gotta give it a go too. If they manage to stick it, then it’s their turn to set a brand-new challenge. But if they don’t quite make the cut, well, they’re gonna earn themselves a letter, starting with ‘S’. If your opponent spells STK, you win, and you move on to the next match. This is an open bracket competition. The winner will get a cash prize, and bragging rights as the stickiest in these parts.
