Only beef I have with the rolls is that they were taught in a gym. Teaching rolls on concrete is the way to go, if you do something wrong you know because it really hurts. In a gym you can do the wrong thing and never realise until you try and learn it outside.
@Isaacconquest Everyone told me my rolls were sublime, including dive rolls. I only found out I was doing them wrong because when I landed, the side of my foot would smack the concrete. So I agree, but the technique is something people should do on grass or a gym. Then do it on concrete to know whether or not they have got it completely.
@Phlipification The only problem is, after training on grass or in a gym, you get in to the habit of doing your rolls wrong. In the parkour classes I've helped teach, we get the students to roll on concrete straight away (after some exercises on the concrete first to help get the feeling for it) and there's very few problems.
@Isaacconquest Fair enough, I just know a lot of people aren't fully confident in just going straight onto concrete, the best way for them in my opinion to gain the confidence. Is to try in a gym or just on grass first.
That's very grat! Congratulation! Si vous voulez voir un bon film de David Bell, il y a "Insbruck Parkour"... Thank you for the film! Danke für den Film, David!!! Merci beaucoup!
david belle reached the point of evolution were he isnt an ordinary human hes super human nobody gets up so fast after that fall trust me its hard to act a fall like that and say im ok XD
I speak english pretty well so im searching for a group age wouldnt mater if i would be respected same as others.
Im going to London for this summer 2010
June 20 to i dont know till few weeks left till the summer is over so i have a little experience in Parkour i trained with my friends here in Lithuania so im searching for same activity in London.
me and my friends started doing parkour where decent but the best place we could find to practice was our school. theres a couple of other really nice spots near where i live but the school is definitely the best. i kinda wish i lived in L.A. it would be so much easier to train lol.
a few days ago i tryed my first turn vault it was succesful but i do arnis a filipino martial art using sticks and some parts of my hand has small blisters soo when i did it some skin of my hand broke
When I first started parkour, I thought the same thing. I didnt understand parkour and I was always complaining that their was nothing to train with.After about three months of training, It was like the world just opened up to me, and I can see every obstacle that I couldnt see before. Parkour is deffinitly the sport I have been looking for.
I was thinking the same thing. He's good, but a lot of the stuff is move, break, move, break etc. He doesn't have as good flow as a lot of other tracuers, although he is trying to fix that, obviously.
@FlowmotionParkour well actually its a good roll the only important part is to roll form one side to the other one if u start with the right side youll end the roll at the left thats the most important part of the roll
I was just there this past weekend, parkouring with some buddies. It's weird seeing the place David Belle bailed at. Still though, UCLA is an AWESOME place to train! LOTS of stuff to train on/with
look at 6:05 in slow motion (click by click if you can't slo-mo it), in the giant 14 ft cat leap, david's feet reach the wall at the same height than his hands, then he changes to the cat leap position and there is when he slips O_o HE REACHES THAT HEIGHT WITH HTHE FEET!!!
ive seen some AMAZING spots in century city and the area surrounding is.
i live like 40 mins from there so i cant train tehre, and my house has no civilization around it haha but whenever i go to my friends houses who live there i do parkour there andi ts fun aws hell
I love that crazy parking garage vault to cat Belle does, insane, I love it! And I didnt know Christian Bale had a brother! HAH! He sounds and looks SO similar at 1:27!
The guy talking at 2:23 + . Hopefully he doesn't have the same view now. It is true a lot of people in the uk do train tricking and street stunts also. I'm not a fan of these. However, many videos i have seen of U.S 'parkour' not only have many flips in, but worse, pointless 'free running' moves, for example spinning out of vaults etc, and also dangerous drops early on in training.
I couldn't agree more. There are so many "parkour" videos that are just backflip off of a bench, backflip off of a stair, etc. And a lot of people make the mistake of trying to much early on. I know I did, and many great free runners and tracuers have also. But hopefully they realize quickly otherwise they'll hurt themselves.
it's not the fact he made a mistake, he is being taught the wrong turn vault technique. swinging round with both feet is risky and you can see why from that. no control.
Noxteryn - thanks for posting the entirety of my video. Its nice to see it getting good reviews. A plug for the filmmaker in your description wouldn't hurt. :0)
I just have a different training ethic. I don't go big or do any movement that I have perfected on a smaller scale first before going out and using it freely in dangerous situations. I see lots of kids doing big movements horribly, and I am one to wait till I know I can do it well
But I guess once you've reached a level like yourself, you have mastered most basic movements and are in shape enough to not worry about serious injury at every turn. I'm no where near that stage, so :)

Great Video!!! I'm sure many people thinking of starting will be very inspired to do so, as you last words say :)
Random advice. At 4:29, you advice the boy to jump, but there also need to be a press, just as Belle practices at 5:57
I would think he should be trying that same move on something smaller, since he seemed to have never done it. Why risk the injury?
I would say to train the movements on a very small scale, again and again, to perfect the basics without a big risk of injury, IMO
