HAHA I have to try that Muhammad.

I DID do some precisions and kongs in cowboy boots and blue jeans once though. Which brings me to ..

You know you're a traceur when you finish a game of laser tag and your friends ask if that was you they saw fall from the gap in the floor during the game.

And your response is, "Did I stick the landing?"

Wow, this thread really took off huh?  haha, I'm glad people are having fun.  My fiance kept saying these things until i decided to start a thread.  we're all nerds... with guts


You know your a traceur when...

You insist that jumping between two buildings 200 feet up is safe and that it truly is "just a mental barrier" despite your friends telling you about the barrier at the bottom of the 200 foot drop... ie, death

The funny thing is how much more people stare at you when you are training in business/dress clothes. It just doesn't look right.

.... all the other dads look at you like you are making them look bad because you are the only one of them actually running around with your kids on the playground.

.... when the ball gets stuck on the top set of closed bleachers and you are always the one that has to get it.

.... when the top and the hood of your car has more dents than the sides.

.... when Channing Tatum pisses you off more now than when your girlfriend made you watch Step Up.

...when you get pissed at your schools computer for not having Windows Media Player so you can watch that new Parkour Video

...when you hear hunters shooting in your woods, and you run straight for them, act crazy, then use your parkour skillz to run away evading their fire. Shocked  (yes, I did do this, but I don't think they were shooting directly at me.)

That's not even freerunning; that's just insane.

... people call you spiderman during gym class because you're the hardest person to hit with a dodgeball.

Yeah, I had one time when they were trying to corner me, so I walked toward them wall... As soon as they all were about to shoot I ran somewhat towards them, and as soon as they threw I tic tac'd to get a bit of height as went completely over all their shots, then came back and won. (2 left on my team at the time, and 7 on theirs). That's using random PK training for a purpose...
