I just found this video on youtube and thought it may be of interest:



There's an interesting mix of calisthenics, gymnastics and acrobatics in there and, of course, the kettlebell makes an appearance about half way through. Some of the stuff they're doing reminds me of Pavel's description of the 'Hollywood Unit' in Power to the People, (trampolining through fire, diving rolls through hedges followed by knife throwing at targets and so on). The audio seems to be a little out of sync with the video but, seeing as I don't speak a word of Russian, I'm happy to watch it without sound.

Enjoy!
