Toytown Germany

Ever heard of Le Parkour? It's an urban extreme sport invented by some bored French dudes. The idea is that runners, or "traceurs", run free form by jumping across roofs, walls, fences, and even parked cars. It's a bit like skateboarding but without the skateboard. Actually it's not a totally new concept. Urban cultures all over the world have their own varieties with names such as Noboarding, Freestyle Walking, or Soaping. The most important point of Parkour is to feel at one with the urban environment. According to the Deutsche PK Community database the only traceurs in Munich are a couple of teenagers in Grosshardern. Maybe it'll catch on? Maybe not. If you're interested, they claim the best place in Munich for soaping is the Saturn building near Theresienwiese.

Is this something like the chase scenes from cop movies? That's what I'm picturing.

If you really want to know exactly what this is, watch the French movie "YAMAKAZI".

I Didn't realize what i have been doing for several years was a sport in france. I use to call it extreame walking. I love to climb buildings and jump roof to roof but i cant do that tuck and roll or do back flips

has any one heard of any one doing backflips standing on swings just curious cos i learned to do them standing up and doing twists off of ordinary kids playground swings?

jus started parkour!
need to know some moves
anyone help me out!

Hi this is pev ever since i heard about parkour ive been hooked, i can do some sweet moves now like the double tick tac grab, which is cool ive also adapted my own style which i think people need to do. People dont want to see the same stuff over and over again like in motorcross no offense to anyone but it gets boring after a while. My styles good for me and if any one wants to know more email me. but no weird f**k ups. Cheers Pev

parkour kicks ass

Iv been doing Parkour four about 3 Years Know but I have got bored and I cant get any wear else What should I do

Suicide.

If you're bored of Le Parkour, you're bored of life.

how do you do that stuff????

well well well le parkour.. i have done it for around 1 1/2 years. it is great. i agree bord of pk bord of life! as the movement represtents life in many ways.

i've been doing pk for a really long time,without even knowing that it was a real sport, i never even knew that there were other people that did it.lots of people don't do pk simply because they're afraid. here's a tip:don't be afraid. just practice. start by jumping onto fire hydrants or climbing up easy walls. just don't give up. unless your paralyzed.
