I will be 44 in a few weeks. I have looked at things the way they describe my whole life but then ave usually just "taken the stairs". Thanks, at least in part, to the free runners setting an example I have begun to take a few little walls or go down two or three steps at a time. It's not much, but it's a start. it's never too late to start. Thanks Nicholas and Michael.

Thats awesome, Don't worry about doing anything too gnarly, just as long as you're having fun

[BoiseFreerunner]

Nice video, I've done Freerunning for almost 5 months and can do pretty much everything exept for stuff that envolves back flips and back hand springs. Any tips?

[googley]

Use pads, the beach, a trampoline, a gymnastics gym, what ever you have in your area to get your body feeling comfortable with the motions. good luck

[googley]

Thanks, we're really put allot of effort into our clips and try not to put anything on that's not worth watching.

What does the guy say at 2:55 "its one of those few things in life, extreme things thats ?????"

[TheManxAndrew]

I am so glad I watched this, I now understand what you guys feel and that I'm not all that different, the part about fear has really boosted my confidence too, knowing that even active and experienced tracuers also share that fear. I wish I lived in a city, not on a completely flat country area.
