Parkour

[Jacko2kn3]

No, not those eskimo coats, I'm talking about Parkour, that new sport featured on TV documentery "Jump London".

My friend just showed me the site:
Urban Free Flow

DO NOT TRY IT WITHOUT READING THE FUNDAMENTALS AND PRACTICING!
(she made me put that :p)

Anyway, what you guys think, cool or WHAT?

I'm so gonna try and do some of the simple things, and who knows, you might see me climbing a crane and jumping about dressed as SpiderMan for "Jumpers for Justice"

I love it.

Jump Britain is better though.

There's a game coming out based on it.

I heard about this too, I saw excerpts from the show as it was on behind me, it looked pretty groovy.

Being a wall runner myself (nothing flashy, just running up the wall and jumping off from a 'high' distance, and I can also run along the wall with 2 steps, working on 3... ... you can tell I do a lot in my P.E lessons can't you?)
it's quite fascinating. It's all about balance though...

*grin* FINALLY REPLIES!

It was quite scarey, my friend showed me the website a week ago, and then Jump Britain was on, freaky

Everyone in my school is talking about PK. Personally I stink at it, but I'm going to try and do stuff. Mostly I'm practicing running up my garage wall, grabbing on and jumping off.

Basic moves can be found here.

Like I said in my first post, make sure you learn the basics, if not you can be seriously hurt.

I had a go at PK in my form at school today, man that was funny. Standing on a chair, jumping off and rolling on carpet which is as hard as concrete, didn't half hurt

Twas a good laugh though. On Sunday me and a few mates are thinking of going running and looking for places to jump, if the damn English rain has ceased.

Happy PK-ing all!

Good, that's the best thing.

I was so dying to dive off a green box (I think they have telephone/TV/internet/electricity cables in, not sure) but the ground was wet and muddy .

Lol I was inspired also by the Jump London thing. I took a look at the site and read the fundamentals and had a go outside. I jumped off my Swingset in the back yard and on a table outside also. I had to go in after 10 minutes because when I jumped off my table I rolled in my dogs poo. :eusa_doh: It was fun though. The first ouple times i tried rolling I would bash my shoulder but now Ive got the hang ofit
