The Chicago Colossal Jam is an annual event held by Aero Chicago Parkour. Once a year, Aero invites all traceurs from around the nation, west, midwest, and east, to come out to the city for a weekend full of Parkour and Freerunning training. I was not able to attend last year’s, nor was a proper video made, so I decided to make sure I was free for this year’s jam; which was held from July 17th – 19th. This video documents Saturday’s session, on July 18th. The traceurs started off at the UIC campus, moved down to the Vietnam Memorial on State and Wacker, and finally ended up on Ohio Street Beach. All in all, approx 8+ hours of jamming on one day. I want to give a big thanks and shoutout to Ryan Cousins and Michael Zernow for hosting the event, and to every traceur coming out to Chicago to jam along with everyone. Thanks again everyone, and I hope the video does the jam justice! Enjoy!
