wow anyone try to use the subtitles, cause they don't work. Its like "one of londons biggest buildings" and in the subtitle its not only the monks building. nuff
yea i see alot of people are getting pissed at terminology here, but you have to understand translation of pakour to english may result in it being called freerunning even though the fundamentals and beliefs of the two paths are different. Its like people in the UK calling cookies - biscuits, get over it :P
The argument between Parkour and free run is a waste of time, no one cares. Go out and move. If you really want to break it down, Parkour is what your see in this video-using your body to overcome obstacles efficiently and fluidly, Freerunning is a term Sebastien likes to use to encompass all of his movement including parkour, gymnastics, martial arts etc. . He figured he's expanded from just parkour and wanted a term to include it all. It doesn't matter, go move.
@pakmailgatal1i unless you cause some sort of damage or i specifically states not to practice anything like that there, you cant be fined for anything i believe. most they can tell you is to just go away :P
@pompeyalltheway there is a difference between freerunning and parkour. david belle and sebastien foucan invented parkour and then sebastien invented freerunning which is the same but with the addition of tricks like flips and all that.....
Yes it is, free running andd parkour are often mixed up and are nothing alike.Parkour being a discipline, a skill or a way of life, whereas free running is more about showing off.Free running may be a sport but parkour is not.
parkour= getting to point A to point B as quickly as possible while overcoming obstacles. The quickest path is the path taken. Parkour has a very practical application to the real world.
freerunning= takes elements of parkour and makes them more aesthetically appealing by adding flips, tricks, and fancy movements to it. It is usually about the most interesting or challenging path. Requires more preparation.
Both are equally impressive but I would liken the comparison between the two to fighting/sparring versus practicing forms/demonstrations in the martial arts.
I disagree. If you train properly, then they will take about an equal preparation. It's about bettering, not reaching a point. And in Parkour, you are actually preparing for something. It's for use in real-life runs, where to need to escape a captor, and/or avoid them.
I use it to get to points as fast as possible. Via, climbing, vaulting, jumping, and then landing. It requires alot of mental preperation, but not as much as martial arts. a combo of both is the best.
No there Damn not ishiiout. There completely diffrent. Freeruning: For absolute fun, no real use. just tricks and jumps. Le parkour, Getting from a to b as fast as possible, basicly, a skill you can use in the real world.
David met up with Sebastian and then they stared creating the philosophy and what not..... from what i can look at it, the team made him the face since he has not only the best mindset but the winky for it
People shouldn't use sebastian as a role model, his movements are very flawed and his training is pretty damaging, just because he invented freerun doesn't make him the best, the wright brothers weren't the best at inventing airplanes, they just invented the first, others evolved from their work and made the type of planes we have these days.
do you even do it? wtf parkour is getting from point to point b a efficiently as posible you clown just happen to be sum fancy moves on the way, i should know i DO it
The term free running was coined during the filming of Jump London, as a way to present parkour to the English-speaking world. However, free running and parkour are separate, distinct concepts—a distinction which is often missed due to the aesthetic similarities. Parkour as a discipline comprises efficiency, whilst free running embodies complete freedom of movement—and often includes many acrobatic maneuvers.
bitter juice? i bet you anything free running was created by sebastian for showing off or looking cool. theres no real reason for doing it besides staying fit. parkour can actually help you during life.

Parkour is the original, which eventually becomes lamo, when it is replaced by better traceurs, known as freerunners.

Real Parkour practioners care nothing for elegance of moves.
We only care about the efficiency of our moves, and how stealthy we can be.
Elegance of movement is reserved for the Freerunning community.

Worse, the script she's reading from blatantly contradicts what the traceurs are saying:
says she:
"for the free-runners, the elegance of the movement is AS important as the scale."
says Jérome:
"For me, the most important thing is harmony between you and the obstacle [...] length or distance have NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
Bloody sensationalists.
