Movements

  • Vaulting over obstacles.
  • Jumping and landing accurately with the feet on small or narrow obstacles.
  • Jumping and landing feet-first on a vertical surface, catching the horizontal top with the hands.
  • Using a rolling motion to help absorb impacts from larger drops.
  • Running towards a high wall and then jumping and pushing off the wall with a foot to reach the top of the wall.
  • Moving from a position hanging from a wall-top or ledge, to standing on the top or over to the other side.
  • Using a forward flip to increase distance jumped.

I really like Parkour, because you can do it anywhere and parkour for me isn't only a sport, It's a habby, it's a passion, because when you are jumping, you can feel the air around your body and you feel that you are flying and this is a feeling that gives you a lot of adrenaline and many more sensations but I can't explain it because it is indescribable.
