does this sound interesting.

What made me want to check it out is that i saw a thing on this group called the " Yamakazi's" (spelling) in Paris, France. It was awsome. I didnt know what to call it so i thought of somthing a friend told me about freestyle walking.

I did a search and found some cool stuff. If anyone knows anything about this sport post it here, it sounds real cool.

This is also called Freestyle Parkour, or le Parkour, somthing alond those lines.

Heres a cool site www.urbanfreeflow.com

I actually filmed a really crappy version of this, as the end of a skateboarding video. I'm not a gymnast though, so it really wasn't very good.

I love parkour/freerunning. Its just under footbag. My friend and I love walking around town, getting on top of buildings and stuff like that. We're still practising our moves before we start doing some of that crazy stuff.

Here are some other websites:

but everyone before trying this stuff please read the disclaimer.

My brother says le parkour is harder than footbag :S It isn't true. Like mosher or someone said on footbag.org forums, it's just what everybody allready does but with names.

shrug, i dont even think its that cool. hes just jumping on shit. the stuff i like are flips. i really doubt its harder then footbag. dangerous, yes, but not harder.

you guys are right parkour/freerunning isnt as hard as footbag. and thats why i like footbag.

my friends submitted a freestyle walking bideo to a snowboard video competition and won three free snowboards, free binding, free wax, and free lift tickets. I was in the end rolling down bleachers in a garbage can. I smacked my face and bled everywhere.

I've done a lot of those moves growing up.

It's called being a kid and running from trouble

.

Actually the only ones I'm interested in are the ones that appear super human, like scaling a 20 foot wall. I saw a guy do that back when "That's Incredible" was on the air. I like stuff like that.

But jumping from wall to wall, or jumping in general is not as existing as say Mofly down some steps.

Keep in mind this is an edited version of the regular video which I dont have (but my friend does). The real video shows the guy, David Belle, climbing up the climbing wall in about 15 seconds or something, its crazy. My friend also has a video of these guys fighting while doing parkour, like with asian speed and skills, wicked sweet.
