    Our Inaugural Gut-Wrenching Contest

    ko generation 2 parkour shoeLadies and gentlemen of Nerve Rush fandom, I present to you one of the craziest, most insane contests you’ve ever seen. In all my years on the Internet superhighway, I have never come across a giveaway so epic in scope. Brace yourselves.

    We are giving away a pair of KO Generation 2 Parkour cross-training sneakers, the only shoes guaranteed to make you jump higher and longer, land more fluidly, flip more cohesively–you know, Parkour stuff.

    Contest Background

    Two weeks ago, the World Freerunning Parkour Federation reached out to Nerve Rush HQ to highlight some of their recent developments—an MTV episode featuring Daniel Arroyo, a number of kickass videos and a super snazzy online store, specific to Parkour training gear. The WFPF was righteous enough to suggest the giveaway, so give them some love.

    This 3 minute long (almost) continuously shot parkour video of the Tempest Freerunning Academy almost makes you want to pack your bags and head to LA. Of course, you’d have to parkour your entire way there, but we thought that was a given.
