Parkour Mumbai - Pk Tonic

Pk Tonic.

Presenting the PkTonic, our new performance product for serious traceurs and freerunners, to get Power-Riser-like results without the Power Risers.

Based on a unique blend of two existing high-performance products "Red Bull" (of the "gives you wings" fame) and Nitrous Oxide (which shares its name with our product's inventor - the legendary NOS), combined together in the right quantities along with small quantities of crushed Nuts (yeah!), and other trace minerals for stabilization, the Pk Tonic is the perfect drink for the traceur seeking to improve his game, especially his jumping prowess.

The Tonic works on two levels - 1) It provides a momentary, but immediate tremendous boost to the traceur in his running and jumping capabilities, and at the same time also increases his thresholds for a lot of different moves, the most noticeable being in drops.
2) It provides a slow and steady, long term increase in the overall performance of the traceur. Think of it in this manner - using the short term benefits of the tonic to gain momentary boosts in power on a regular basis will over a period condition and solidify those boosts of power and give them a measure of permanence. Using the tonic over time can make your short term gains from it permanent! Just how cool is that?
Test results (illustrated below) have shown the immediate-acting effects of the Pk-Tonic resulting in upto 500% increases in drop thresholds and upto 200% increases in vertical jumping height.

You have eaten tons of bananas as the main food for a traceur, you can now consume gallons of the Pk-Tonic as the main drink for the traceur!

Below we present some data from the enormous amount of testing we have conducted on the product to better explain its capabilities. We will present some charts showing the effects of some of the constituent elements of the Pk-Tonic, and then show some data about the tonic itself. After going through this information, you will be able to see for yourself the benefits of using the product and how it will positively impact your performance.

First, we have the constituent element Red Bull.

Next, we have Nitrous Oxide (the one that you put in your car variety, not the competing energy drink that they manufacture with the same name variety, that would be useless to our cause because neither does it give you wings, nor does it set your tail on fire).

Result of Nitrous Oxide in action on any subject:

We did some preliminary testing and then proceeded on to create our first blend of Nitrous Oxide with Red Bull without adding any other elements, but as you can see, the initial results were far from satisfactory. The test subjects started out fine initially, but we think the 'gives you wings' portion of the Red Bull in the mix took precedence over the other elements, and the subjects tended to get really out of hand, giving unexpected flight paths.

Finally, after a lot of trial and error, and testing on human subjects (yes, we shamefully admit to it), and adding other components in our patented blend of the perfect elements in just the right quantities, we were finally able to come up with the product that traceurs worldwide would soon come to love and swear by, Traceurs and Traceuses, we are proud to present (cue dramatic music) - The PK Tonic in all its glory! -

Results of Final Tests on all subjects (after adding stabilizing trace minerals)
Test # 892723:
The Tonic performing in all its glory!

Notice the tonic now performs perfectly as intended, giving the traceur or traceuse the right boost from the ground when starting off or when taking a big jump, and it results in a perfect trajectory of motion which will take you precisely on top of that just-out-of-reach obstacle that you were afraid of leaping onto for so long.

This all new Pk-Tonic has even recieved a vote of approval from the founder of Parkour - David Belle himself, who has been using this product for the past few months, volunteering to be one of our human test subjects, and came out all tops in his latest movie, where he attempts the most audacious jump ever in parkour history, all thanks to the tonic.

So by now you're getting pretty excited, right? You just want to rush out to the nearest store and buy a bottle of this wonderful product?

But hold your horses, don't rush out just yet.

The Pk-Tonic hasn't been officially launched yet, this is merely the announcement of the launch. The actual launch of the product is going to take place on Sunday, May 9, 2009. Details about the launch party are still being worked out, and will be made available on the website shortly, so just stay tuned in to the news section if you want to attend it. Hopefully David will also be able to take some time off his busy schedule (promoting his latest movie), and be there at the launch party himself.

Initially the Pk-Tonic will be offered in two sizes - 500ml/16.9 Fl.oz. (picturized above), and a smaller, on-the-go bottle of 100ml/3.3 Fl.oz. We might introduce other sizes later depending on the nature of the demand for the product and the valuable feedback we will recieve from our customers regarding the economics of using the product.
The 500ml bottle will cost Rs. 250/- per bottle, and the 100ml/ bottle will cost Rs. 75/- per bottle.
Bulk discounts also available.
(International prices yet to be determined.)

We are only initially releasing the product in Mumbai. It will be slowly introduced in other parts of the country over the course of the year. International customers will have to wait for it though, as there are still a lot of issues that need to be sorted out before we begin exporting.

Currently our supply chain is extremely stretched and we are restricted to providing the drink only within the local limits of the city of Mumbai.
We are also looking for regional distributors for the rest of the country. If you have the requisite logistical, storage and distribution facilities, and you are also willing to invest in the initial marketing spends (which will be jointly shared in a model where we spend on the national level promotions and the distributor spends on his own regional markets), then please contact us on the email id provided on the website.

If you, as an Indian traceur, know of any such distributors in your local area, please don't hesitate to refer them to us. The faster we get distributors for your local area, the faster you get your hands on the tonic. This actually also applies to any non-Indian, international traceur. Eventually we will have to begin looking for international distributors as well.

We are also working overtime to add a shopping cart feature to the website so that you can book your orders directly with us eliminating middlemen, which would result in more savings for you, the traceur, and also direct delivery to your doorstep. You can combine this with bulk-ordering, where you would also become eligible for our bulk-shipping discounts, resulting in more savings.

The product hasn't launched yet, but we have a limited initial stock ready for sale right on the launch date. To pre-order the product to be one of the first traceurs to use it, you may place them with us via email, or make a post on the forums on the relevant thread (mentioned below) and leave your details, and we'll process the orders from there.
Book fast, pre-ordering option valid till stocks last.

Don't worry, the the subsequent batches are already under production, and will be available for sale soon.

Use this thread on our forums to discuss everything about this all new product, to give your feedback, or to pre-order bottles for your use on the launch day.
