The polish Freerunning community has been a mystery for many years. This changed a lot when SICK MODE entered the global Freerunning scene and showed the world the level of polish freerunning. You will see them regularly on big events and jams like KRAP Invaders, 4TLOM and FamJam, pushing the level and overall being cool and funny guys. So we decided to look what and who is behind SICK MODE: How did you guys meet and what‘s the story behind SICK MODE? We know each other from polish freerunning gatherings. Each of us lives in a different part of Poland. And how we became really good friends? It is simple. Everyone in our team is crazy… when we are together no one can stop us. Everytime we saw each other, we were creating new moves, combos and stories that not many people can imagine. It´s because our way of thinking is really similar…like brothers from another mothers haha…   One day Kamil came up with idea to create something new in polish Freerunning community. We went to his city to make a video project called Sick Mode: ONe to show the world that polish Freerunning level is growing. Our inspiration was Storm Freerun: Volume One and Advenced Motion video series. We were not expecting that many views and good words about it, so we were really happy. Then we decided to continue this to inspire other people on this planet :) For now our team counts 7 athletes – Kamil Tobiasz, Kamil Półtorak, Kacper Lipski, Adaś Walosik, Mateusz Petryszyn, Piotr Kunka and Dawid Zakrzewski. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R46bYN7U9Gw Every Freerunner jumps for himself and it‘s not a Team-Sport, what does your Team do for you and what does it mean to you? Yes, every Freerunner jump for himself. But what would be Freeruning without making new friends and creating new adventure stories? (Kamil Tobiasz) – My team makes me happy and we are all happy when we can train together and spend the time in a way that we really enjoy. So basically our team is our family and family is the most important thing in life. 10154440_1564422337117293_293604275_n If SICK MODE could get a free-trip to any place on earth and you can bring one extra person who isn‘t part of it (yet?) who would it be and why? Wow.. hard question, theres is a lot of athletes that could be at this place haha.. but we would choose Phosky. This little bastard loves flowy lines and crazy moves as we do and he is a really good friend of us. (SI ESTÀS LEYENDOLO CABRÓN NO TE LLORES, TE QUEREMOS jajaja)

If your team-mates had a superpower what would it be?  We are already power rangers, can’t you see? The only power is missing is flying as a bird. Imagine if you can do precision from one point to wherever you want and do as many flips until you vomit. Would be awesome, wouldn’t it be?

Your number one advice for anybody who wants to start Freerunning? Try to move from little steps. Focus on landings and connecting moves… for big moves the time will come… And of course watch a lot of videos. From them you can learn a lot :)

Cherepko‘s legs or Pasha‘s creativity, choose one! Cherepko’s legs with Pasha’s creativity. How about this one? Describe your team with a movie-title! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Where does your team-name come from? As we told in the beginning we are all crazy in our own ways..we had a lot of ideas to call our team… We just posted some ideas and we stayed with Sick Mode. Our boy Adam Walosik made a logo to this one and we really loved it. Your favourite Freerunning-spot ever and why? Red city in Munich. This place is just great. We had a chance to train on this spot during Fam Jam but we didn’t use the full potential of it, so for sure we will go back there! http://www.radioarabella.de/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/rotestadt.jpg Baggy Pants or Skinny Jeans? BAGGY OF CORK! What‘s next for SICK MODE? We have a lot of work this year… we are planning some new level project but I can’t say now what exactly, so stay tuned :)   Thank you for your time guys. We are excited to see what´s coming and will definitely stay tuned. If you want to know more about SICK MODE, make sure you follow them on their social media channels.
