Real superglue has a chemical in it that is very toxic. You might try using the type of glue developed specifically for skin for the sake of safety, if you aren't already using that.

For those who are unaware, superglue was originally developed by a doctor as a replacement for stitches, but the kind of superglue that is on the market for non-medical use has chemicals in it that are not good to place on open wounds. There is a type of glue that you can buy for sealing shut small wounds, but they don't call it superglue. It is very similar of course, minus the toxic chemicals.

Sweet, I have to get some of that.
I did this a month or two ago. I tried a kong to precision, but I wasn't really up to it at the time. I hadn't warmed up, it was cold, and I wasn't really trying. I racked both my shins on a craggy, breaking piece of concrete and had two bad bruises on them for about 3 weeks. Not fun.

screw medical tape, where can i get this medical glue
I like Tricking and Free Running, i don't think i actually do parkour, because i do it for fun and self expression, which would change the term to free running.
