I thought this would be useful
here is a good site for begginers
Parkour Techniques and Movements

Heck yes. Will go practice this this weekend at our High School football stadium.

Can't say I've ever Parkour'd, but I've studied up on it a lot and am going to start practicing as soon as I can find a time to do so. There's a university near me that has a lot of random architecture and would be good for practicing on.

I stopped for the winter (too cold and ice) but will start again in the spring

That site is awesome. Excellent find.

I've been doing parkour since 2 years,so if anyone wants to ask me doubts of this amazing and fantastic sport I'm open to new ideas...I've made my own movements (maybe I'll post other day) but in general with parkour (if you have a lot of practice) is a nice mean of transport that allow you to pass every obstacle you find in the way...really interesting and great!!!

['Itan Atxur]

The main things I like about it is that it seems similar to the way the move in the movie AND it's practical.

[DrizztDoUrden]

well,they do a strange parkour but anyway...parkour XD...it's dangerous to do as they do because of the atmosphere (they have an special atmosphere) and because of many things,the geografy...etc...

['Itan Atxur]

Yeah, well danger reminds you that you're alive! 

[DrizztDoUrden]

true,true

I'm almost sick of being safe, lol. Avatar has inspired me to try bungie jumping and sky diving (haven't done either yet but plan to this summer) as well as this now.

[DrizztDoUrden]

I like the ´´adrenaline rush`` of Parkour when you jump...I've jumped a 4 metter long wall downwards and you feel the adrenaline and the air...it's fantastic...and I've been chased by the police in the roofs and it's amazing the feelings,just...I can't describe it (but don't think I do bad things,it's only people calls to the police qhen they see you at the roof of a high school,no more XD)...currently I make a shooting game with air compressed pistols doing parkour in an area full of obstacles and it's amazing,great,incredible...and you do sport!!!

[Ikranä mokri]

the fact that you got chase the police means that you obviously didnt listen

if u look at most sites about parkour they abide by the law

no offence but its people like you who give parkour practicioners a bad name in society

[Mako]

Today I ran and wallran up to a pipe nearly 15 feet off the ground in a corner of my gym. I missed by 1 ft. O_O

[Ikranä mokri]

i tried passe murialle ( i dunno how to spell it) but i just dont go up so until iv got tacs and vaults sorted on teh ground im gonna stay off any high places

[Mako]

Heights have always been my thing, so don't press your luck, but I've studied landing technique before and I've jumped off my 20ft tall back deck. I can give a picture of the height as proof too, if anyone is asking.

[Ikranä mokri]

i getting good a rolls though

i practised in my school uniform the otherday in school. fun but hte looks you get are quite disconcerting

[Mako]

Rolls are cool Only thing I need to perfect there is the hand to elbow part of the roll. Elsewise I've got it. And yeah, some people were like "Dude, awesome!" and others were like "You jacka**" so.
