How tall was the shorter guy? He looked like to couldn't have been more than 5'5".
And this is in Romania, right?

They both managed to get around all the obstacles with ease. It might be encouraging to people who think that they're too short to do what everybody else does.

this is a great video, only thing that would have made it better is if the 2 guys were wearing completely different cloths, cause even with the size difference its hard to tell from far away whos who
edit: isnt chase armitage pretty short? he looks short in his vids

I always thought it was better to be short if you did parkour. More agile and quicker and able to move your body better.

welllll alot of parkour is based on getting over obstacles... so i guesssss technically. if you were taller, you would have to do slightly less work to raise your COG over the obstacle.
maybe?

if you think being short and lightweight is bad for parkour then you should watch one of Jereme's videos...

I'm the little guy, I have 165 cm (I don't know in inches...) and my friend have 188 cm, and we tried to show people that size doesn't matter in parkour, evryone have his style, you didn't see that in every place both of us have another traiectory? one climb up the wall, the other make a tic tac..and i am small but I managed to climb up that big wall...And yes...we are from Romania...Sorry for my English but I think that you've got the point... |
