Bay Area Parkour

An open space for traceuses and traceurs training in the San Francisco Bay Area

...now: an inspiring lesson from a "non-pro" (<- lol!).
If you think you've got your acrobatics, your railwork (!!!), or your handstands down, some motivation to push a little harder.
;)

Not what I usually mean when I think "Amateur!"... yet again... maybe I'm wrong.
:)

Also: "Link movements!", "Keep the flow!", "Carry momentum!" ("Dammit!" Lol...)

Watch it in HQ here.

...uhm ...yeah ...not exactly what I had in mind.

Comparing these two is a bit like comparing an expert, skilled, swift urban driver with Schumacher: yes, they both could go wrong, but the first would probably end up in a bumper fender, while the second could get his F1 airborne (after capsizing other two drivers) and land it on crowded bleachers. (<- wild exaggeration, don't try this at home... lol!)

No, my point was that there are advanced, inspiring and exciting skill levels, which are reachable.

I almost never watch people like Danny (Ilabaca) and Oleg thinking that I can learn something, because the way they move simply doesn't make any effin' sense!

One of the purpose of videos, IMO, is to trigger realizable dreams.
Another one is getting a kick out of it... true.

Cool, and to add to it (although NOT amateur!)I got a kick out of this - and, Oleg is actually a good dancer! Yessss!

Wow, why don't my usual questions prompt this many insightful and helpful answers? I learned a lot from the responses of this single post. You're ALL true :D I guess like the saying goes, one mind any weapon. One body, any obstacle. Thanks (: Thi...

As the saying goes, when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Or similarly, it's not important to know the answers as much as it is to know how to go about finding them. I think of parkour in terms of music- it's important to b...

I suppose it depends a bit on your personal training style. What do you what to emphasize in your training? What interests you? If all you want is to be as fast as you can, then I can see wanting to find your strengths and relying on them almost e...

LOL, good answer. I think I see what you mean now. So then, you'd say that the original question here is moot. It's not a question of technique but rather of instict and experience, and that neither "quality" nor "quantity" matter. Am I...missin...

Not if it's freezing raining tho.

I think we should try to learn as many techniques as possible but NOT as fast as possible. I would start with the basic ones, and get those down before you elaborate on them and learn more advanced techniques. ...and everything Giorgio said is t...
