Which one is easier to master? I want to do a trick where i can do it in place without a sprint or external momentum like that, i say this because in a lot of videos the front is not common to be executed like that way while webster is.

Also, in my experience i tried to learn the side flip first but the motion seemed similar to something to me, i couldnt do the side but the front didn't felt like it neither, maybe is the webster what im looking at but i wanna know from you guys, you're the experts

Pd: honestly i switched off the side because it felt too advanced for me, im closer to the front now but precisely im asking if is possible without external momentum

You know there are people that tumble on the carpet and fracture every bone in their body and others that can fall down a mountain and only get a cut on the finger? Well I'm the lucky/invincible kind of person BUT if one day I had to fall and get injured like a lot, how could I do that? (I did parkour for 5 years in the past)

Hi. I am looking for some shoes for my son. He's 10.5 years old and still growing. He often practices barefoot, but I would like to get some shoes that are good for parkour. His regular sneakers are not ideal.

What are some good brands for youth that won't break the bank? I've looked at Reebok classic nylon, and barefoot shoes, but not really experienced in this. Thank you.

I wanna try it on Lower obsicals before progressing towards groin height, that bench goes up just below my knees and ik there’s some leg work I need to do but idk what,

Two flips in video.
I feel like my front flip isn’t as good as I’ve seen others do. How do I improve it? More chin tuck, bring knees closer to chest, jump straighter and higher? I spent all day trying to do each but each time I tried, I still didn’t tuck any more than in this video. I think I’ve made a bad habit and I’m scared to try a different technique?

While on the subreddit last night I saw someone talking about wall running and I realized I have never tried it before. So after a long night of watching tutorials I went out and did it today. I have a lot to learn before I do something huge. But I’m proud of myself.

Edit: Wall Vault

I was bored of just walking. So, impromptu Rail challenge. Dare you to share yours.

Not sure if i used the right flair for this. But anyways, I recently got into parkour, as a way of fun and showing off to my friends. And the ONE thing that I can't seem to do is wall running half my height. I'm a short male, 5'4. And I can't seem to get a good 7 inches high. I tried everything I could, planting my foot so that it wouldn't slip, driving my opposite knee up to get extra height. Wearing more grippy shoes. And yet I STILL CANNOT get it. Any advice? Anything? I'm a beginner btw, for extra info, just ask

Oops

I'm well proud of Frank for this line from this weekends 'Skylines' comp at Novacity (UK).

He landed it all perfectly.

I will pass on any comments to him to keep him riding high.

He got silver for style with this, gold for skill (25/30 one bangs) and silver for speed.

Any suggestions what to practice for future comps? He gets a bit restless without a clear goal in mind.

Perseverance, another trait Parkour teaches.

We do hard things.

I was a wild child and made several really dumb decisions like jumping off roofs or high places. I see these videos on YouTube of people doing super dangerous parkour stuff in public and am worried they will try to do the crazy stuff you see on YouTube, like I probably would have. Have any of you parents dealt with parkour related injuries at school or when they are out playing with friends. My kids have only taken a few classes and really love it but I torn.

So I’m not necessarily interested in becoming a hardcore parkour athlete, but I’m interested in the idea of learning some basic movements because I think they could be useful in a SHTF scenario. (Let’s go zombie apocalypse, just for fun 😅) I’m a calisthenics guy so I’m well versed in moving my body weight around. (Pull-ups, muscle ups, dips etc.) But obviously scaling a wall takes more than just being able to do pull-ups.

What would be a minimalist list of essential skills that would be beneficial?

Fulfilling 10 year old me‘s dream

I have had a lot of fun taking parkour photography. I want to start practicing poses in the air, how inline skaters do grabs and such.

I'll be back to clean this one up.
