South African Parkour has reached a stage where it has grown its own recognisable community of practitioners, with some members at advanced expert levels of capability comparable to the greatest international athletes. As such, we feel that 2013 is the year that SAs parkour collective be given a platform to express its growth and unity.
We have been presented with a template for this platform, both timely and opportune in the form of the Mr Price Pro Ballito Beach Festival Parkour Series. This event runs concurrently with the Mr Price Pro Ballito, an event on the Prime ASP international surfing calendar. We aim to achieve the same levels of exposure and intense excitement witnessed through the Red Bull Art of Motion events. These competitions have inspired and given life and incentive to this idea. Please consider the mutual benefits in this regard and take note of all those concerned in this petition
I am currently drafting a formal proposal to outline the potential for integrating a local parkour series into the Mr Price Pro schedule. This document will be delivered to the event organizers early next week to discuss logistics and potential sponsorship alignments.

The level of talent in SA right now is insane. Guys are training constantly and deserve a proper stage like this. Red Bull needs to get on board and stop sleeping on us.
