@woodzee6194 yes definately, to me they're all kong vaults of u run at the thing and do do a kong/monkey vault. i just heard that the only difference between the two is that a kong is more of a running one foot take off but personally a 2 foot take-off is still a kong to me..

[woodzee6194]

@devster117 I find you take off with way more power with two feet doing long kongs..

[devster117]

@woodzee6194 a 2 foot is called a monkey vault, the prequesite of a kong vault

[woodzee6194]

no .. launch off two feet its better

@theconqueror I think it's called a straddle vault?

@blueboy4rock freerunning incorporates more aesthetic movement as parkour is made only to be an energy efficient way to negociate obstacles

How many times my feet have caught something and have made me faceplant with long kongs.

[theconqueror]

what is it called if you do this same move but your arms go between your legs and your legs dont go between your arms, but your knees lift up to your shoulders , kinda like a cheetah running, cause i bet soemone could get some really fast speed if they could run like that

should be abel to do from 3 metres back

@luigisf well first try to do a monkey stall , it is just jumping on an object and not vaulting it but climbing on it as if dong a kong or a monkey vault , then add more and more speed , and you will get braver to actually do it :) Then when you vault it with monkey stall , or when you almost to vaulting it , then try a kong , you will be ready for it , trust me :)
