I saw some guys doing this a couple years ago during the "guiness world record smasher" show on New Years.  Would have gotten myself a pair but they're like $100 at least or something like that, don't really remember.

my friend got a pair for like $500, it's pretty expensive, but potentially worth it if you want the world to be a trampoline.
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.

not dangerous if you know what your doing

Just like regular parkour, or just about anything...
