Parkour is the spirit of freedom and a way to express it through overcoming obstacles in an urban environment.

It has its roots in the training system of French soldiers, and as an independent phenomenon parkour was formed at the end of the 20th century in the streets of Paris suburbs.

Despite its applied roots, parkour has become an independent phenomenon and an integral part of street sports and culture. Its basis is the development of skills in overcoming obstacles, which allow to expand not only physical abilities, but also the internal boundaries of a person.

People involved in parkour can no longer look at the city and many things differently in the usual rhythm of life. Parkour has become such a part of everyday life that you can see it not only at festivals and competitions, but also in the movie industry, in video games, on the pages of comic books and on stage during various events.

In season [7] the Parkour is divided into 2 categories: Pro and MID.

During the registration phase, the participant shoots and posts a video with an intro and outro to the participant's social media with the hashtags #KARDO, #KARDO7 the video is uploaded to the Personal account as a link to the video uploaded to the cloud disk, as well as a link to an open source in free access (link to the video in the participant's social media)). The link to the disk must be active and the link to the video posted in social media must be available until the end of the Award-Competition. The required material in the form of outros and intros each participant can find in the form of files in the section Resources. This insert is mandatory.

Online selection criteria, tasks and evaluation system for the contest "Competitions"

Prepare a video application that is 1 to 2 minutes long (splash pages and credits do not count as video timing). The final video used for the application must be new and not previously used anywhere else. It is possible to use in the video new footage shot specially for the application, as well as footage from previous seasons when editing the video. Footage from halls, parkour parks, sports grounds and city spots can be used. No footage is allowed in which the following items are used to perform the elements: safety mats, soft landing zones and foam pits to soften the landing, as well as trampolines, mini trampolines, gymnastic bridges, acrobatic tracks and gymnastic springy mats used for pushing/jumping when performing the elements. The use of tatami and wrestling mats is allowed. If a competitor's application contains inadmissible shots, his application will be disqualified.

Evaluation criteria

  1. Complexity.
  2. Technique.

If the timing of the video application is less than 1 minute - the application is disqualified.
