The interview went well. Listen here www.ustream.tv/channel/vhtlive- - Travis Graves is a seasoned Parkour & Freerunner. Most of us first heard of him when he competed on Jump City Seattle. He's with the Tribe, the very first PK team in the US!  Speed run in Semi-Finals Freestyle run in the Championship www.hulu.com/watch/230686/jump-city--travis-graves-grabs-airFunny apk video I'm dying to ask him about Graves did try out for ANW3. His run was cut but we know he made it to the Jump hang before he stepped off the course when a staff member had to help him out (when his foot got caught in the net.) Questions don't have to be limited to Jump City and Parkour. Travis actually knows a lot and is pretty enthusiastic about Ninja Warrior related things as well. By now I trust you all know what/how to submit questions when one of us holds an interview. Keep it to one or two questions, include who you are, be creative, do your best. I'll be recording from VHT Live. Still working on a way to get the person on the other end's face into the interview as well so it's not just me the whole time. Last time I interviewed James McGrath, and we spent A LOT of time on each question. There won't be as much rambling this time, haha. and just like on Jump City, FLOW is important. |

(Graves' run did not get cut, I distinctly remember seeing him run out of time on the Jump Hang with his foot caught)
What advice would you give to someone who is starting out in freerunning?

Has there ever been talk of a Jump City, season 2? Yes and the ratings weren't high enough to justify it so G4 scrapped it. |

Considering that G4 highest rated show is ANW that has only 300k viewers.  Considering that G4 is the worst rated TV station in the USA (probably the whole world, and maybe galaxy) LOL. ;D |

Yeah, neither have I, it started after DirecTV pulled G4... So I guess uhhhm...
If you didn't get caught in the Jump Hang, how far do you think you realistically could have made it?

Sure why not I want to know the level of knowledge/fandom he has with my favorite series |

Travis & myself had a little confusion on when the time was supposed to be, or perhaps he got online as soon as he could. Travis couldn't make it tonight but that's okie dokie with me, we all got lives after all. I'll post the next appointment soon.

It was a good one, that is all. Travis is more awesome than I ever expected! www.ustream.tv/channel/vhtliveThe only thing that's bugging me is there isn't any video for me. If the video didn't process, then think of it like a podcast ^^ |

Liked it! Listened to the whole thing. Hope you do more of these. LOL Podcast was fine since usually all you see is you staring at other stuff on your screen anyway I wasn't missing much Except I didn't get that Miami vice thing.. I guess I had to be there |

I guess I had to be there The Miami vice thing we watched is linked in my original post. The video I was meaning to ask him about. There was supposed to be video because I was recording my screen, but who cares! No Audio would have been disastrous. I'm thrilled you listened to the whole thing |
