    Parkour first …
    Parkour first appeared in France, then spread all around the world.
    In America it also developed free-running as a parkour style that focuses more on the tricks than on smooth and fast passing of obstacles

    @TMovieKlip Actually, as you rather stated, a russian made parkour, and his name was David Belle. I don’t know if he made it while he was in russia because as you know, it was very popular in france. thats all i can tell you about parkour, but i think a fellow named Sebastian (last name forgot) created freerunning after parkour.

    They may call it “parkour running” but I guess it’s more about agility and strength? One mistake and your leg snaps and you’re done for? They do some great jumps.

    If you’ve got the time search for parkour and watch some skillful guys from Russia and France.

    Where did parkour start? Some suburban sport for retired acrobats? I don’t know….
