TEMPEST ACADEMY

Team Tempest, also known as Tempest Freerunning, are an American free running team based in Los Angeles, California. Paul Darnell originally came up with the idea, and introduced Victor Lopes, Rich King and Gabe Nunez to form the original four-man team.

"A four man team dedicated to applying the power and force of a storm to their passion for freerunning. Tempest was set to pursue the dream of making a mark in the freerunning world, by adding style, creativity, and dedicated focus to the sport."

After making a name for themselves in the free running world, with video releases such as I Freerun LA and many professional performances under their belt^, they began to recruit more team members.

"We are inspired by those who are dedicated to what they believe in, people who are willing to take a risk and have fun doing it."

The team now consists of 11 athletes, with their youngest member, Lucas Ryan  being selected at only fourteen.

Team Tempest is on of the pioneering free running teams in the world and with the creation of the most epic free running academy in California! A free runners paradise!!
