I have a friend who would probably disagree with that statement ;-)

So what is parkour then?
He certainly counts balance and movement as part of the whole thing!

I understood Parkour to be "Urban Free Running"
The pic of the guy on the skyscraper - that's more climbing/free climbing, innit?

He is the one who does all the flips and stuff, he balanced along a beam to walk out there
He says he does parkour, I take his word for it.
If he did that on a beam that was only 6 foot off the ground, parkour or climbing? ;-)

Hey man - I didn't mean to upset either you or your friend. I'm sure he's absolutely hardcore.
I was just having a little joke.
I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.
No offence taken, the problem with internet comments is the way something is conveyed is often lost.
I wasn't getting defensive in anyway, just playing devils advocate.
Its the same with giving a genre to a band, Its all down to personal interpretation! :-)
