O.k. here is the truth:
1. Parkour IS a hoax. See how most of the movements are like a circle? Like a CROP CIRCLE?! All video editing.
2. Parkour videos are suppose to highlight specific movements during play. Yes, any video does better with some extra fluidity.
3. There still are debates on Parkour vs. Freerunning. In general Parkour in context of what it was designed for is for efficient movement. Period. Not flashy handstands and flips. Freerunning does employ acrobatics. I personally do not differ the two anymore because the amount of time I've wasted arguing about Parkour vs. Freerunning has honestly amounted to the wasted time I could have been training.
4. Parkour is enjoyed by many. It requires only devotion to train and condition. It always starts hard, but it gradually gets easier if you learn to enjoy the movements. I guess that is the same with martial arts and gymnastics themselves.
5. I like my screen name and my bail. A click is a click.
6. Next time I will try to look cool... I thought the Asian thing gave me a free pass...
7. Woo, yay, hoopla!
8. Not much running in it, but meh.
9. Shoot... I haven't even gotten all the lingo down.
10. I have become a bit obsessed with Falcon Jab. I actually wanted for a long time making a video to it.
11. I guess? In the beginning it showed me bailing, but it reversed flashing to what could have been more training. Despite all of that training the fact was I still bailed at the end. I suppose that could mean next time I should train better and just keep practicing.
12. I punch bears* on a daily basis, but walls are different because they hurt when you punch them.
*That are highly sedated.
