"Le Parkour Forum"

You've all seen Jump London/ Britain. Yes, it is the best sport ever, and so deserves a forum. I grant you all permission to share your thoughts and feelings, aswell as images and videos about/on Freerunning or Parkour.

Begin!

Define sport.

1. sport n. (100%)
an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. • success or pleasure derived from an activity such as hunting.

There's no real competition as such, no rules, just people showing off.

Incorrect. There has been several competitions already.

Do you call skateboarding or inline skating a sport?

Darts is now a sport
just thought id say =D

You blatantly don't do this sport, Mr Thread Starter. You just look at the men on TV do it, then you slide down the bannister and feel pleased with yourself.

Then you go outside and kick a football around, on the sly, so no-one sees you and thinks you're not Alternative Sport Guru anymore.

I do this sport.

At least that's what I say to cover up my numerous failed suicide attempts.

Yeah, it's pretty cool. CBA to try it though.
They should probably make a few freerunning parks (like skateparks, obviously, but for freerunning)
