M2 reverse vault

M2 actually does parkour?

Yes, every once in a blue moon I actually get out there and do my own little bit. While in writing my Parkour stance comes off as very progressive and open, in practice I don't do much acrobatics, tricking, or "spin moves" (except in the gym for fun). I prefer to work on moves that challenge my abilities, which of course isn't very hard :P Here I am doing a move which I have termed "flying reverse" ... because you clear the rail completely before grabbing it ... this is useful because if you ever get to the point in a speed vault and find that you've misjudged the other side, you can grab and whip, presto. It's a great feeling move, as you are "free" in the air for a moment, the same feeling in a long saut de chat before your hands hit.

Ya, its basically a speedvault to turnvault. the speedvault part is stressed more than the turnvault part. its pretty cool to see. 
 
i think it was pistolwhip that took the picture. and ya, where them other pictures!

Don't believe the hype! It's been photoshopped! M2 doesn't even exist :p 
 
As for the day of training, it was good to see you finally get time to practice Parkour rather than just working on the websites and taking all the pics yourself. Hopefully you'll make it down again soon!

Good pic though, makes it look like hes high in the air when in reality whoever m2 photoshoped himself over isnt.

Half of them are on the VA-Parkour server, but camera-boy hasn't made a post for them yet, so they just sit there waiting ;)
