Cat alley.......located near the Imax in London. This one place was amazing for cat leap and precision practice. There was a fear factor to overcome because of the height but once mastered, it provided a multitude of combinations. Sadly, shortly after Jump Britain aired on TV, the whole of Southbank got swamped with beginners wanting to hit the London hotspots they'd seen. Eventually Cat alley got hit too and in an effort to kill it off, the owners of the adjoining building, coated the entire landing zone in anti-climb paint. Shortly before it was killed off, Sticky managed to nail the level to level cat to cat and a kong to precision across the gap was being eyed up. For many of the early practitioners, this area holds some fond memories. In this pic, Bam travels over the gap via a precision while Asid and Blue look on. RIP....Gone but never forgotten.
