I'll mess with this later. Basically, I just want to say what I can do in Parkour and such. If I find someone with a camera/get a camera I'll put some pics up. Maybe some videos. 3nodding --------------- Okay.. Some people -Cough- don't know what Parkour is.. Put simply: "Parkour, the "art of movement"... The idea is to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible... Free running is basically the same thing, only with more "flash" involved, more entertaning, but not neccesarily more effective." I do both Parkour and free running. I do those to both help and get help from Capoeira, along with looking cool and getting general awareness of my body. Also.. It's extremely fun. heart ---- Basic movements and names: http://www.urbanfreeflow.com/fundamentals/fundamentals.htm

TODAY I DID A KARTWHEEL.
Basically:
Dan: DO SOME PARKOUR DOOD
Me: Why?
Dan: Because you always talk about it but I never see you do it. SO DO SOME b***h.
Me: Okay. -Kartwheel-
Dan: Oooo.. A Kartwheel. I can do that. -Leaves-
Kartwheels are actually pretty hard... What?
Get a bunch of hugs later on.. One from a guy and "the bunch" from geminis. -Waffles-
Also. Got onto the roof of the middle school. Thanks to Matt. Decided on a clan name, Concrete Commandos. Sounds pretty gay, will probably be changed. But at least it is there. 7 people atm.. NEED. MORE.
Also.. I can vert 3 feet easy. Gettin' closer to 4 with little effort. I've done 5 with a slip, ******** my knee up.
For the future: Practice more kong vaults and get higher on the roof.
And get new shoes. Blisters from Capoeira are getting annoying.
Goals: Under rails(bars is kinda lame). 4 step tic-tac. Cat balance. Kong Vault to rail precision.

Today I did a kong vault. A good one.
But, also today the peeps at the Middle School are trying to ban me from the Middle School property. Tresspassing and such. But it's for jumping off the roof which I have never done. And it wasn't trespassingI want to, but I have never done it for that reason.
Makes me wonder what they think I would do.. Jump off and kill myself? Spray paint the whole building? What? I just do Parkour. blaugh But, there are other roofs to be banned from. I'm not worried. They don't have any grounds anyways.. "A trespasser will probably not be prosecuted if the land was open to the public when the trespasser originally entered the land and the trespasser's conduct did not substantially interfere with the owner's use of the property and the trespasser left on request."
-Shrugs- Just my kid rants and frustration. scream
I'm beginning to see a six pack. Oh how I have missed shweet ab muscles. xd
Probs: Treat Middle School staff which will be easy enough..
Future: TIC TACS.. Haven't worked on them due to Capoeira. They hurt unconditioned ankles. Both Capoeira and Tic Tacs.
Practice Rail Precision for balance
Goal: Well.. Same as before. Summer's comming soon. HUZZAH

KING KONG VAULTSTUTORIAL. DON'T KILL YOURSELF. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PRACTICE BEFORE YOU THINK YOU'RE UBER IN FRONT OF YOUR FRIENDS.Kong vaults for short. I can already do them, I'm practicing them to go from the vault to a rail precision. So.. Vault over a wall---> Land on a rail--> Balance----> Get onto the next rail or whatever. Need more practice for it. 3nodding Lots of kinds of vaults, most in the first post's link. confused Meanwhile I've been more focused on Capoeira until I get better shoes. The Chuck's I'm using are too small, and are only good for wall steps/running/Tic-Tacs. Why do you need good shoes? Well, bad shoes cause injury. My Chuck's are pretty old and worn, and have caused me to slip and get scraped up pretty bad. I.E. The vert jump and another time when I jumped onto a bar, slipped, and bone bruised my shin. Just be careful. That's to myself and all of ya' who are interested. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. POWER IS CONFIDENCE. SUUUUUCK. wahmbulance

Thought about wall runs more thoroughly.. Will practice tonight. Also, Capoeira tonight, I've been getting a lot better. By fall I hope to be good enough to go to the seminars.
General: Aikido and I have had a fall out. Been afraid of going back since I hurt my back moving. Simple fear of falling. Why I started Parkour. I'll be going back this week.
Parkour: Yea. I need a haircut.
Other: Today's been a long day, I need to bish. Gotten barely any sleep, been driving in the mornings at 6:30. Wearing myself down. But, I can either rest or make my body work, I'm the kind that's self destructive. razz
Future: Lose the shoes. Relax.
Past: Blisters. Done. Awesome.
Now: Stretch more. Getting lazy.

You're welcome and thank you, Gold. razz
Today I'm just chillin'. Tomorrow I plan to go to Farmer City and do some Parkour with a division in my clan.. Err.. Friends. Gonna be fun. Hope I bust a lip or something.
Been thinking about new places to go. Think I'll go for a walk on Sunday down to the campus/downtown. See what's there if you know what I mean. All those sexy rooftops. razz
Anyways. Cool. Buttsecks. Peace. Etc.
Edit: Got bored. Tried figuring out a headstand kick from the Capoeira video in my profile.. Just did it. Feels funny as hell. Probably look dumb.
PRACTICE MAKES UBER. AND UBER MAKES ABE A HAPPY MAN. THAT HUMPS BOXES.

BWAHAHA! I LOVE MY FRIENDS AT FARMER CITY!
Basically.. We did a s**t load of Parkour. I ******** up my hip and knee earlier though so I didn't do so well as far as vaults went, though ironically I did monkey/kong vaults perfectly. -Shrugs-
My shoes suck more than I thought. -Looks for wallet and keys-
Well.. Let's break this down:
Learned: Front flip, a bunch of other crap.
Injuries: Adam ******** up his ankle, Josh ******** his knee, I ******** my neck not even from Parkour, and Matt did nothing. As in didn't do any movement.
Taught: Vaults. I a lot.
Accomplished: Tic-taced onto a tree, climbed up many roofs and jumped off. Also twisted Adam's ankle a little more. Hehehe...
And finally.. Impressed people. Shweet.
Future: Bring ice. Relax. Don't aggrivate fights though you can kick a**.
Also hang out with FC peeps more. They actually do Parkour. Awesome.
