It doesn't necessary to train 5 years or more. Well I know 4 of traceurs who jumped it 2 years ago, they had really 5 years of expierence, but in next year Im coming with my friend who will have only less than 4 seasons of experience and Im sure he will be prepared well for that jump. We will see with him and myself cause i will be there first time and next season will by my 6th season of parkour training.
dude you might want to train more before jumping that gap, i'm going there in 2011's summer to jump it and train with david belle if i can. by that point i will have about 3 years of experience. train more it will help.
@Parkourfourlife David belle has stop to practice or very very rarely ... Sorry ^^ @ GTNever And for the manpower gab, you can jump it without experience if you want .. the urgency will be happy to have a new patient :-) !!! No seriously ... this jump is hard, with or without éxpérience, 5m of length and more of 5m of height...
dude thats wrong its about 5 meters. i know that it is at least 15 to 16 feet. its also about 10 feet from point to point for length distance.far as i can tell hi roll was fine. he was obviously fine.
In 3 years, you can (if you train hard) have muscles strong enough to handle those drops.
You can also have a good technique.
But, you can't have strong enough bones and tendons. It takes a lot of time for those to be strengthened so that they can take the shock without suffering from more or less important microtraumas.
Now, it should be okay as long as doing big jumps like this one (even smaller ones) is not something you do daily (or just something you do).
Someone once said to me 'your knees, your choice' and i sorta believe that, but for three years thats a huge jump to do. But i'm gonna be different and comment purely on the guts you must have, at least if you do decide to strengthen yourself more and more and more, you still achieved something not many people have which you can look back at, so...well done
Yes, you did hurt yourself. Just because you doesn't feel it that doesn't mean that you didn't damage your body. It is impossible for a traceur with three years of experience to be physically prepared to do that jump.
Sure, you did it mentally, you didn't feel any pain while doing it, but you did hurt your body. This is something that probably will show up when you're 40-50 years old.
@kjh8766 the mental part would play a big part in the jump but you also need right technique for the jump and the landing otherwise you would most likely injure yourself.
you wont know how does his body are realy preapeared for this jump only by asking in how long he had trained parkour , there is more than the time he had trained parkour, there is his body ( how strong are his bones and etc.) , what where hi doing befo he started training parkour and etc.
I know that It takes ALOT training to be physically prepared to do it. More than people think. It's a question about muscles, knees, legs, joints etc. You need a very varied training to be able to do it, and a very hard one. It's not about a few years but maybe 10-12 years.
10 - 12 years thats nonsense, when you train you know YOURSELF what your body can handle, some people can handle more than others at a faster rate, it depends how much the person trains, whether he conditions his body and whether he has the mental ability to stay in control. and i've been training for nearly 4 years now, so i speak from experience.
If someone has been training hard for 3 years I can easily think they'd be ready for that...All drops require physically are strong legs and a good roll. Plus it's just something he did once. It's definitely more a mental feat. And he got past the fear and did it.
How is big this in metres ...?
Is very big the fall?
Be careful with the roll ;)
Best wishes.

Anyhow, does anyone now how high the manpower gap is? I mean from roof to roof, not to the ground. Hope you understand.
Good luck with you training anyways! :D

The way I see it :

You can also have a good technique.
But, you can't have strong enough bones and tendons. It takes a lot of time for those to be strengthened so that they can take the shock without suffering from more or less important microtraumas.

Stay safe.

Many people seems to think like ''Oh, if you do the right roll tecnique, you'll be alright. Especially if It don't hurt''
It is just a fact that you CANNOT BE PHYSICALLY PREPARED to do the manpower gap with THREE years of training. It's simply impossible.

Yeah. Your right. I already know that. And I read about Dilution by Blane.
I need to Man Power Gap scene, Because Korea`s fucking parkour situation.

'It is impossible for a traceur with three years of experience to be physically prepared to do that jump.'
I beg to differ.
darkenspirit 3 years ago
Experience is not important. Most important thing is how to keep training and how oftenly. Man Power Gap is to me just "Mental/Mind Problem".
