Kong Vault Tutorial and how to overcome Kong Fear

[TheDuncskunk]

It's unlikely you'll face-plant, and if you do it's not that bad, the only thing you have to worry about is getting your feet onto the table, because if they smash into it that can be really sore.

[immZKrayzie]

cool tutorial and i learn a new word! KONGING!

[supermec131]

I liked and subbed and favourited when he told what I would do if I didnt learn properly, for its EXACTLY what I did.

[Ghecco09]

Some mistakes I noticed people do is that they look directly at the object thus giving them the fear of messing up.Looking past the object helps to get over the fear of getting injured.

[VeBluEvO]

exelent how much traiinig have you did to a full kong

[SuperFretShredder]

I just cant overcome the fear of clipping my feet on the end of the obstacle and face planting!!

[MyLastSiege]

@SuperFretShredder easy, learn how to roll, if u clip ur feet simply fall into a roll, done it tons of times hopefully u wont sprain ur ankle

[SuperFretShredder]

@MyLastSiege Any tips to perfect the roll? mine still kills my back if I hit it with too much speed. PLus i cant do it on any thing hard. I can do it on grass or carpet or even gym mats.

[FearghasG]

@SuperFretShredder watch?v=1iICtT7ycUs&list=PLAC9­0ED58CDC8A748&index=13&feature­=plpp_video

best tutorial ^

[MasterMacFTW]

@SuperFretShredder i faceplanted today, its not as painful as it seems hahaha

[Suckmygoth]

Should you do a mini hop before reach reaching the object for bounce or just jump before you reach, place hands down as legs are in the air and then bring them through?

[superubik9]

i like it very much! thanks!

[penguin5822]

Thanks for the tutorial! putting things like chairs in front of the obstacle really helped me focus on diving. Now I can do it the long way across a picnic table :D.

[parkourkid419]

JUST DO IT

[gabrxHP]

aren't you responsible for my death!?!?? asshole!...xD

[december17]

this is one of my fears in parkour. thanks for the tip man!

[SuX42S]

Epic dust @ 1:12

[acdcmaniac1996]

tnx man!!! you helped me a lot!!!

[marcus20506070]

i like the vid but i h8 ur double tap

[roguetrooper96]

this is a pretty awesome video so i think ill try this monkey stalling tech... wait... th... this can cause death?!!?!?

[RambOFreAc]

OH NO! I THINK I DIED! OOOH AAAAH, UUUH! YOUR RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS YOU FUCKER!

[J3rrylim]

@RambOFreAc Dont u understand english? lol

[RambOFreAc]

@J3rrylim What? XD

[RambOFreAc]

CANON ROCK!!!!

[HDStasHD]

Lawlz @ epic shoes + dust. 1:12-1:14

[sqeaksquad]

pure awsome bro.

U R Da Man

[billy7211]

the other day i tried a kong but i caught my knes and i tok a massve gouge out of my leg and now im too scared to do one.

[manonmercy]

Lol at the disclaimer.

But, thing is you didn't do a split feet kong. They help you maintain your momentum.

[traceur2782]

awesome video dude. I'm redy to start learning the Kong Vault. Thx you very much. Peace !

[limoguy333]

i can do a real shitty kong vault where i slowly jog up to a picnic table and kind of force my self over, but those massive diving ones you do are nuts

[TheStatikNinja]

You helped me loads pal cheers :)

[Rilliden]

You build up our confidence then kill it with your ending statement about how we could possible die your not supposed to tell us that. D:

:P

[gookmail]

nice song, nice person, nice environment , nice tactics, nice stunts , nice everything

[Fl4SHEff3ct]

my only problem is like the superman dive towards the object, just the fear of not being able to bring my legs through my arms because of overexcesive amounts of momentum in my legs causing me to fly upwards and hitting the ground with a face plant. -.-

[PaperheadsXD]

@Fl4SHEff3ct Well, if you feel yourself messing up, an easy way to bail is to do what he did at the beginning and do sort of a messed up two-handed vault. It get's you over the object and slows you down so you can safely land. But hopefully you don't have to do that much!

[Fl4SHEff3ct]

@Fl4SHEff3ct thx i pretty much have it down now :)

ive been workin on it and i can do it over the width of the table but not the length yet >.< thats to challenging for me im too much of a noob still gotta practice

[619djb]

LOL ...... i done a kong vault butt i dived 2 far and missed the table comletely and i ended up fractureing my skull ... LOL .... so my advice dnt show off and try and make a massive dive over an object datz only round bout 2 foot long... any way nice vid simple and effective

[TheComputergeek567]

its so easy to say but your fears behind you but you still get scared

[Hadeslorster]

brilliant!! this is really helpful, and i noticed that sum people said this aint a kong but a monkey vault, well - they ar ethe same. theres just different little 'extras' u can add on to make it klr - and i loved the death disclaimer, lol :)

[jesusshank]

@Hadeslorster thats not true at all. the monkey is hands touch the obsticle first and the kong is when u jump first. they have totally different uses...

[kingofdajs]

thats a monkey vault a kong vault is whenever u start with a one handed simple vault swing ur feet around plant ur second hand and then push off

[ParkourHero123]

QUESTION: I want to know a easy way of getting my hips up higher. Will someone please answer me?): Im begging you)= ....Thanks a bunch

[lyprov]

@ParkourHero123 Kick up your non-dominant foot. If you watch the Kong Tutorial in Urban Current's channel, Ozzi shows you to approach the object with a skip from your left foot, and a sort of one-two motion with left-right, and to push with your right foot. Doing this allows you to kick up your left foot, giving you some good hip height.

[Tirane28]

this vid helped me and i haven't even tried it yet!

[techn0FTW]

epic, look at the dust at his feet at 1:14

[xpeepstax]

dude that is weird... just like he said in the video how if you just try to do it your legs will swing over kinda like a dash vault, that is EXACTLY what happened to me i must've tried 20-30 times before i trid practicing with the monkey vault

[thetrancetenshi]

oh i see well i guess im lucky that didnt happen 2 me when i was learning a kong lol

[muaythaimark]

i learned kongs on a rail and im fine.

[techn0FTW]

@muaythaimark i suppose it's your preference. if you're a beginner you can hook your feet on a rail and hurt yourself.

[debbief76]

:)))))))))))))))

[stryker399]

I kong and cat but usually hurt my knees

[spartan052597]

yo anybody who this happens to 1 just belive you can do it 2. if you get it once and cant ever a gain just think (how did i do that the first time....hmm?)always works fr me btw.great tut man

[thetrancetenshi]

hehe good tut but i dont get the big fear over doing it i got it my first try probly not perfict but yaknow :) could some body tell me wot scary about doing it?

[1RedFox2]

some people are afraid of hitting their toes on the obstacle and falling on their face.

[thetrancetenshi]

oh... i see now but how funny is it when u see people do that :P

[1RedFox2]

haha :) true, true

[JesusisKing55]

looks easy. I can feel myself doing it but the mental block keeps me from doing it. nice music lol obese smiley

[BrigadierKool]

guyz if u have the fear of failing, hitting your toes or simply landing on ur face just put on shoes, elbow pads, knee pads and wrist protectors or whatever there called and then u just keep on saying to yourself if i fall i will not hurt myself because even if u dont wear safety gear what could realy happen maybe a grazed knee or a sprained wrist which would be unlucky or at the very extent and u would have to be very unlucky or simply really unfit and overweight a broken arm. hope this helped.

[hindikoalamilalagay]

cool!!

[rckrtaylor]

I've been able to successfully perform kongs farther than any of my friends while inside the gym but the second i step outside fear consumes me and i feel as though i will fail. any suggetions?

[adamdeaap]

well if something like thats happen to me i just keep thinking, it'll work it' ll work ... and if it fails i just try again xd maybe it helps just believe in yourself

[caitlin735]

It will hurt alot more to bail inside than outside, falling on grass is fine, you know you can do it because you've done it in the gym just practise :)

[RoflmaoCookies]

Is it recommended to do on a trampoline?

[xMyPeanutx]

I'm trying to do the monkey stall thing, but I keep on snagging my foot below the table and falling on my face, and I'm having trouble keeping my knees from knocking into my arms, though my feet are together. Is there any kind of stretch that could get me prepared for the stalling thing?

[leepailong123]

One feet is harder ;)

[kahlil13]

i just cant overcome that fear but im gonna keep trying hopefully ill get it today. my fear is that my feet wont get up enough and ill hit them on something and land on my face but ill start practicing

[runeskrapa]

awesome lesson man

[altoparkour]

lol, ive seen a lot of people that dont do parkour and try to copy me that just try to run over it xD

[angelrend]

is it important to have ur feet over ur waist level when u kong?

[23firefly101]

i used to do what u said the kong in air to lazy

[Koseiku]

You may even add more obstacles but then you won't land on your feet at the end, but have to roll.

[KevinC1012]

super. tht was great. keep goin dude i subbed

[Gangstarman888]

bad , you can run faster away when you get just with one feet on the ground!!

[DonTouchMyShades]

Ah, kongs. This is the one difficult move in PK that I learned the fastest, and yet, fear the most. I used to be able to do it...

... but I lost my nerve when I finally banged the side of my face into an obstacle at a local class.

[nateums]

sweet man!! perfect stuff ! +1

[bichobachas]

hi!!

hey excellent video and great kongs =)

excuse me, can you tell me what song is that? is`s great too xD

[bichobachas]

hi!!

hey excellent video and great kongs =)

excuse me, can you tell me what song is that? is`s great too xD

[TerrorWatcher]

I'm afraid I'd bang my shins :(

[bichobachas]

hi!!

hey excellent video and great kongs =)

excuse me, can you tell me what song is that? is`s great too xD

[clothespinfilms]

Pause around 1:42. Ridiculous.

[runeman180]

king kong anit got nothing on me! LOL:P

[goldenguy12345]

my mistake CONCRETE BENCH

[goldenguy12345]

i almost shit myself when it said CONCRETE WALL

[tyguywow]

but this is a monkey vault

[WhoaThatWasAwesome]

1 key thing he missed is that your legs lift off before your hands touch the surface (thats the diff between a monkey and a kong)

[Skatapatita]

can anyone say me the fastest way to make a kong vault without decrising speed and momentum? PLS PLS????

[crzyguy2]

do a split-foot take off. that means you take off with one foot first then the other so you practically run into it

[kharn75]

lol run into the object, nah i know what u mean

[Goodguuuy]

Just practice and try not to lose your momentum, I have the same problem when doing a kong on rails, but I'm getting better ant it, "there's no secrets, just practice"

[UrbanFl0w]

Believe me guys this really works i saw that video 1,5 year ago and i mastered kong vault :P

u gotta like really believe that you can do this and just....do it :D

[ILike2Sk8123]

lol i crashed today when i tried to do a kong but i still tried after that. no pain no game

[DeathInArms]

lol, no pain no gain i think you mean.. haha.. but your right though

[1man2manynotes]

i have the 1st problem he showed. i'm a lil to fat for my legs to go inbetween my arms. lol not scared though

[FlowUrbanFlow]

i never had fear with a kong. i just learned 2 keep my head below my shoulders

[Yakushii]

The double kong looked like a handstand with a jump, only at speed. Awesome =D

[Daytonl1995]

i learned my kong today on a rail

[69Danny695]

good way to learn kong

[pojipoj101]

what other kind of thing can be used like if you dont have a picnic table around?

[WhoaThatWasAwesome]

ur like some master konger

[RSquared15]

What exactly is the difference between a kong, diving kong, and a monkey vault

[WhoaThatWasAwesome]

Monkey vault doesn't actually nid a leg boost. THe difference between diving kong and kong is that diving kong ur whole body is tilted downwards than just ur hips above ur head.

Some1 correct me if im wrong this is my understanding

[cukadacher]

on a monkey,you place your hands on an obstacle before you jump,on a kong you first jump and then you put your hands on an obstacle,and on a diving kong your legs must be higher your head

[GoFukYourself21]

Lol, u pretty much piss all over me when you jump over those 2 chairs. Thats wat you call nice Kong Vault

[Keyboardbeatz]

Damn when I first saw that chair I thought know way.

[xAznSinnage]

Nice kong vault man ;)/

[MichaelH252]

This tutorial works, it took me like 15 mins to do a kong with this, but I never had the fear, I just didnt get the techinuqe so times may vary, I also do diving kongs too :)

Great tutorial for any beginner

[ryan952007]

man! i'm 13 and i can double kong over 4-5 feet high objects and i can quadruple kong on ground... but i have no balls to dive before the kong.... btw you are teaching us a diving kong not a kong. a kong requires just to jump before you do the monkey;) anyway... it's the best diving kong tut i've ever seen! good job! peace!

[ryan952007]

ooops! my bad... i meant a can double kong over 2 feet objects... i'm from romania ... i was confuse..

[cukadacher]

im from serbia

[dimosgr18]

i am doing parkour for 5 months in my first week i couldnt do monkey neither kong because i had your fear. make that monkeystab and you will pass your fear. Train carefull

[bigdaddyfranchise]

omg im so scared my tose will get caught and end up faceplanting or eating concrete

[SkaNinja1313]

did that today on a bar caught my toe smashed my shin but it was raining lol. table wrks

[LILSERBCR7]

ahhh dude ur teaching ppl diving kong vault

[DarthVader553]

ahhhh dude that is a kong vault there is only a normal kong which requires you to dive before your vault the object he's just saying u can dive from far away beside there is only5 types of kong out there that can be done ... normal kong, travelling kong... double, triple and quadruple kong

[dascreamodarunner]

WHoa wonder if that works hav a feeling that works

[owensloanes]

thanks its a great way to boost your confidence

[TheRoboNapkin]

Ugh. I can do everyone of these, I just have kong fear. I'm sure after I do it once, I'll be fine, I just have the fear of smashing my head in.

lol

[TheRoboNapkin]

Yes, this vid helped so much. I just went out and tried this. Fucking awesome. I suck at it, but that's cause i9t's my first time.

[kibadoggy4eva]

i imagining myself smashing right into the desired conquered object..lol >.>

[TheRoboNapkin]

hah

[CrazyLuncher]

hahaha i am not responsible for death omg!

[coolabajset]

I learned the kong in about two or three days and now it's so easy to do the kong :) I can do them every where :)

but I haven't tried the double kong yet....

[Chao5bringer]

I'd just like to say, I learned how to kong by first monkey vaulting, after i could monkey vault, I began to practice running and doing a monkey vault, and as i got more and more confident I began to jump from farther and farther away, eventually i had to stretch to land my hands on the vaulting surface, and one day a friend said, I didn't know you could kong, and that's when i realized i was doing a kong

lol

[chipmonk777]

when i had the fear of the kong vault, i always went to try but put my feet aside and not through my hands. one day i felt confident enough and tried it on a fairly small wall, when i tried, i scraped the bottom of my foot slightly on the top of the wall. After that i didn't feel confident enough, and haven't properley tried since. I hope this vid has helped, it was good ;)

[Chao5bringer]

trust me on this, try leaning forward.

[jigsaw666puppet]

thank u 4 the tip ! = D

[chipmonk777]

thx

[7thproxy]

lol, for the first week i did kongs i did them perfectly!

but out of nowhere my left leg moved out of my arms! now i cant get them to work again lol! i have to start from scratch. :(

[camandoe]

that should be proof that you can do one man that should give you confidence try raising your jips higher next time

[0bombshell0]

thanks for the overcoming the fear part.i neverthought of doing that!=)

[DilbeardAlbeard]

Great Video! Thanks for the recommendation and technique u taught in this vid! I am currently a noob traceur.

[charlielim59]

my obstacles are mostly obese school mates who slow me down lol.

[shwaou]

lol ty, dont make fun of me im 13, always scared, i just tried on a sofa 10 mins ago but this will help, well done!

5/5

[Nexos123]

The Best Kong Vault Tuturial!! i learned to monkey/kong this way...works for everyone i recomend it ^^ (sorry for the bad english)

[munnsy42]

[badkidjoe]

lol smiley face is obese

[sailes3]

5/5 best kong tutorial ive ever seen

[d4bl4h]

love this song!

[DavinSteidel]

i dont think anyone has died doing a kong and besides people who need to learn shouldnt start on concrete its unforgiving they should start in a gymnasium with mats and spotters and such.

[Roroan]

Unfortunately, not everyone has that luxury lol. I'm doing it on concrete and these metal tables at a nearby park.

[deathadder32]

I'm pretty sure the "die" part was a joke

[notsovirgin]

hehe looks like your taking a shit when you do tha monkey stallign thing

[matprithellodave]

whut kind of a name is paedomorphosis?

anyway yeah good advice! so kong's just a monkeybutfor long distances like picnic tables?

[ziggy557]

the monkey and the kong are 2 completely different vaults but they are similar-both can be used for long distances

[Beasley2k]

Monkey vaults are from stand still, Kong vaults require you to jump before placing your hands on the object. Diving kongs require you to dive forwards before placing your hands. All are different variations of through-vaults, however.

[SamSplat]

Very good video

Not the way I learnt to kong but its the same way i teach most people lol

[sharmoota120]

thank you very much this is a very good video now i can overcome my fears and lean the kong the right way

[parkourniall]

Thanks for the vid what i always do is take my hands of to late, and my arms get in the way of my legs

[halfasianguru]

great video bro really helped me

[blake34760]

[NStyleRobb]

Awsome tut. Too bad there is no such an object near my house. I don't really have fear for kongs. Only for monkey...

Great Vid.

[FenderB3nder35]

......lol?

[knives06511]

lol strange, i fear the kong not the monkey, why fear the money

[Monksideal]

why fear the money, in deed... lol! (I know you meant monkey)

Thanks for a great tutorial, paedophilia!

[Drakookard]

Well... I am 12 and I started doing parkour literally 2 weeks ago, I can do all of the vaults I have heard of over a little dog shed about half a foot above my waist (I can even do a straddle vault). This is the only vault I couldn't do. I'm sure this will help.

[goodzila2000]

hey dude im not scared of the monkey vault part just the diving part

[MclainSH]

Practice on a bed thats what I did now I can do a dubble Kong vault

[paramoreblows]

i can get my feet/legs through my hands like you explained, but it never feels right and im not sure when to let go of the object

[kawasakibeats123]

great vid. helped me alot with my kong fear. thanks

[btkw]

lol i have fear monkey stalling

but nice tutorial tho

im gonna try it ... mayb next week( im too busy)

[Notmyrealaccount5]

Acuzim: If you mean the monkeystall, just jump and monkey into your hands ^^

Just jump, and aim your feet between your hands. Ta-da, you have a monkeystall :P

[hiiamsteve]

Practicing with monkeystalling is good, thats what i started to do. I still have the fear on high objects though.

I really don't think you should do a hop, your feet taking off seperately might be better. I unno. I don't hop before. =o

Good tut+

[bigbadwolfnigger]

i got it, the whole mental aspect discourages you from doing it.

[jurberto]

what a fucking kong fear?

[vlecro]

you should learn split foot take off.

[zarek10]

lol how funnys the warning

lol funnny man but thx for that need help i hope that help oh just to ask does a wooden picnic table work???

[lilmryardnome]

theres really nothing to be afriad of. theres really not a way to face plant unless you kick you r arm with your leg. just practice getting on top of the table until your ready to go over.

[pugzlazz]

Yes!! Very good tutorial! i learner kong few days ago in same way! it took me about 30mins to learn. The most important thing to do is overcome your fears! 5/5

[Volkade]

01:41 I thought you were going to Kong the car hahahaha

[DJFilmsCorp]

Ahahaha yeh I was wondering that too, same with all the obstacles behind the stuff he was going to jump, you know he could have done a wallrun into a frontflip into a handspring off the car, and then into a nice travelling kong into a front handspring. Double U T F?

[Peramorphosis]

I double konged a car before

[Bukotraceur]

i am learning kongs but swearving to the right how can i overcome this?

[lilmryardnome]

just commit. u have to be ready mentaly.

[vlecro3]

serch jerryc canon rock.

[Skaare77]

nvm about the song, just saw it in More info :)

[Skaare77]

I learned kong using this tutorial. Thank you. :D

And whats that song in the background anynone knows?
