Spinning Marine

Fresh from being taught 'Parkour' for the Extreme sports channel/Royal Marines Commando challenge, Capt Sean Lerwill throws it all back in our face by taking up Freerunning. In all seriousness, the whole Commando squad took to the discipline like ducks to water and as seen in the pic, Sean has been getting in plenty of practice of his own.

Boooooolsheeeeeeeeet!!!

As part of the Motorola RAZR2 promotion, Kerbie, Livewire and Sticky had to hit the streets of Birmingham. Here they session the famous bronze bull statue at the Bull Ring.
The Mexican mouse, he say booooooooooolsheeeeeeeeeeet!!

Do You Know How I Know You're Gay?

Hoping that this pic had been buried in the UF vaults forever, this nice little snap has just resurfaced to haunt Sticky. bwahahahahahahahahahaha!
Set up as part of the Vauxhall Tribes promotion, Sticky and Kerbie were coerced into appearing in some rank girls mag. And they say that there's no such thing as bad news.....

Bo'Selecta!

With Avid Merrion being ill, Blue got the call from Channel 4 to step in and do Bedtime With Bear for the beginning of the new series. Originally he wasn't up for it, but when they waved £5K under his nose...............

Army Shocker

October 25th saw Sticky and Ez deliver a Parkour workshop to the 4th Battalion of the Royal Engineers. It was the first time that Parkour had ever been taught to the army and it won't be the last. Turned out to be a massive success with all the soldiers stepping up to attack everything thrown their way with varying levels of success. Here we see a group shot with almost everyone flicking a shocker.

Naked Ambition

Not content with coming first at the 'Big Trick 3' event in Germany, Livewire hooked up with local photographer, Salajin, to take some action shots. She wasted no time in convincing him that regular Parkour action pics had been done to death already and to get his rat out instead. All done in the name of art. Riiiiiiight.

Numero Uno

Sticky tries to large it up but being dressed like a cross between Freddy Krueger and an extra from a Boy George video, he fails. Shutdown!

Rappers Delight

For a while now we've kept the truth about Steve the rapper quiet, but now is the time to reveal that he's the latest edition to our 'street team' and you don't get much more street than Steve. Finding a homeless man at Southbank is no big deal, but with Steve, we've unearthed a gem who can rap with the world's finest. Since meeting him we've hooked him up with sponsorship and whenever we hit London for a media opportunity, Steve is always on hand to spit some lyrics and spice up the day. He even managed to start a fight with the usually placid Blue, at a recent MTV shoot and for that alone, he deserves his stripes. Here we see him gatecrashing the Kevin Zacher shoot and in no time at all, was serving up cold lyrics to amuse everyone.
Not ones to miss a photo opportunity, Sticky and Livewire got up close and personal. For most, the smell would have killed it but having had a former team mate being a soap dodger, they were used to it and weren't deterred in the slightest.
Wandering off to the London eye, Steve continued spitting for anyone who would listen. Here he encounters another street performer and rolls off some lyrics about a headless chicken to Rihanna's 'Under my umbrella' song. Class!
Steve, look at the lens bruv. We want a profile shot. He tries his best but in his altered state of being absolutely wasted, he can't get his eyes to work properly. After 6 or 7 snaps, this was the closest he got to nailing it.
As always, after 10 mins in his company, we get bored and try to lose him. Here we see him saying "Its all good in the hood" after we've just slipped him a tenner for beer and fags. Until the next time.......

A Bum Note

During our photoshoot with award winning photographer, Kevin Zacher, Sticky couldn't resist getting his ass out for this photo opportunity down at Southbank.

Plastered

During the Motorola roadshow, Livewire and Sticky decided to empty 2 packs of plasters and cover their faces completely. Huuuuuuuge improvement!

Battle Of The Machines

For our up and coming 2008 Connex project in Las Vegas with JCB, we've had to spend time at their Midlands based HQ to play around with their heavy machinery. With the production team mapping out the ground to replicate the performance area, ez and Bam had to get to grips with the 'Loadalls' and figure out what could and couldn't be done. Here we see Bam testing out the roof for a proposed cat leap from a central stage platform. Performing aside, the team can't wait to get back to Las Vegas again. The last time around Asid, Blue, ez and Sticky had the time of their lives filming with Mad Media and Boost Mobile. This time around we could have as many as 8 athletes there running riot. hmmmmm

Portland Pwnership

Location: Portland, USA and with Bam and Sticky previously doing a high tempo job in Prague, they were expecting more of the same in the US for the second leg of the shoot. However, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the vibe was much more relaxed and as a result, found themselves with plenty of time to venture out on their own. Here we see them dabbling with Sticky's SLR and Bam's fish eye lens in their downtime.

Acidic By Nature

Prague was a fantastic place for Parkour and everywhere you looked, opportunities presented themselves. Another very clear thing was how prominent street art is there, with literally every wall being covered in graf. Here we see Asid pointing our where he's going to add his own piece later on during a night stealth mission.

Motorola Roadshow

September 2007 and Kerbie, Livewire and Sticky get stuck into the Motorola RAZR2 campaign. The project itself was cool enough with the guys shooting a viral video and then performing at various cities. The downside was the gheytto shiz they had to wear in the process, which was a cross between Hong Kong Phooey and The Village people.

UF Brotherhood

UF sponsored athlete, Stoney, decided to take a gap year from Uni and instead of taking the easy path of fame n fortune through the 'street circus', he opted to work in a cathedral as an assistant. There haven't been any reports of any strange incidents yet, but we are all betting that its only a matter of time before he has to bash the bishop. Right now there are rumours going around that the priests are already calling him their 'lil bitch'.

My Name Is Earl

During their photoshoot in Portland, USA, Bam and Sticky found themselves with plenty of free time to rinse all their money on designer clothes. In the process, they saw an American Apparel store and decided to tick off 'wearing the whackest clothes you can find' from their to do list. Here we see Sticky in a fetching white number and Bam looking ravishing in his two piece titled the 'lady killer'. The pictures taken in the Anne Summers shop with crotchless panties and fishnets will have to wait for glyph ting V.2.

Goodfella

Kerbie in gangster mode for the Daily Mail shoot. Rumours are floating about that he decked the photographer and went through his pockets to 'borrow' 300 quid and the keys to his Bentley. You can take the boy out of Sutton but can't take Sutton out of the boy.....

Blue Shocker

Fresh back from filming in Prague and it was straight back into action with our seminar in Camberley, Surrey. Nice turnout and positive minds all round. Joining us for some fun was Blue, sporting his busted hand. As pissed as he was about not being able to join in properly, he still cranked out a shocker which showed that his priorities are still in place.

Protection From Muppets

It is common knowledge that the UF glyph has armour-like properties, but nobody has ever captured it on film before.
Here we see Asid wearing a red 'Street prophet' top from our range after being asked if he would do an advert with Wendes for Lillets. Before Asid could say "Fuc..... the glyph took over and went into shutdown mode. Now THAT'S what you call protection.
