Parkour.

Discuss?

 

people were calling it "yamakazi" in the nineties. I remember seeing it and being blown away

 

I prefer doing rather than sitting back watching =)

 

Parkour is pretty badass. It's less badass than free soloing, but still pretty cool.

I also don't like it when people call it a martial art.

 

My brother does it. He breaks a lot of bones.

 

I've never once broke a bone doing it =/

I've fallen a few times though =(

Did i mention i'm sponsered for it =P

 

in the 70's we called it''running from the cops''

 

..............:2thumbsup:



Cheers Glen.

 

sure i'll spend an hour in the park watching someone else play superman. seriously, this sounds like something that has it's own place of honor among the darwin awards.

 

looks like the modern equivalent of swinging through trees to me...

looks like fun, but i'll stick to me bicycle to get through the city :mickey:

 

Fuck a discussion. Just watch this video:

i remember people calling it "freestyling" when i was in high school 2000-2004. me and my buddies would sometimes get really high and go freestyle at the mall, but i dont think we did any better tricks than a 360 off a curb. lol

shit's awesome though. they had some parkour championship in seattle on g2 not too long ago. it's really entertaining stuff

 

It looks like fun, but where I live, there's absolutely no place to do such a thing. The buildings and houses are all placed too far apart, I think people would probably break their necks trying to jump from one to another. Or fall through a roof...

 

i used to enjoy running through the woods back in the day. i didn't realize there was a name for it at the time though.

 

one of my cousins is really into it. it makes me insanely nervous

 

Parkour,, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkour

I think the French invented it while running away from the nazis.

 

I pretty well abandoned all physical activity once I got my drivers licence :driving:
