Name: Drew (AKA - Quickplaya)
Clan: Don't have one yet. Trying to get some friends together to start one.
City: Kentwood (Grandrapids more or less right by the Woodland Mall)
Friends: I parkour with a friend named DJ
How long have you done parkour: Just started.
Contact Info: Quickplaya@hotmail.com (Msn IM name too)

I am 20 and pretty fit for not doing much. I play DDR/ITG2 and PIU alot. I win tournaments. I work 3pm-Midnight so I wake up early mornings for my solo jam sessions. I am currently trying to condition myself for the spring/summer comming up. I have a friend DJ that is helping me along. I will get him to post here soon. Please contact me so we can hang out sometime. OH, btw, I don't have a camera, but I went to school for Multimedia Editing and I currently work as an Image Coding Specialist so I am UBER smart with puters. Can't wait to jam with you guys soon.

I know... but considering the new member section hasn't been touched in a while and it is friggen 4 pages long seperated by earliest post first, I decided to make my own to get peoples attention... If the moderator/admin doesn't like it he will delete this post. I have already posted in the new members section also so it doesn't matter if this gets deleted... I am just trying to bring the forums back up to speed... lay off ok? and btw... nice to meet you too.... gessh.

Hey. I am newer than all of yall. I haven't started yet. Hehehe. I don't know where or how to start. I live in Jackson and there isn't much around here to do so I figured... "Why not learn to parkour?" I am going to learn with my best friend. We are going to teach ourselves and try not to die. Sounds like fun to me. Got any hints?

Hi, welcome.

I'm in Ann Arbor right next door so if you can come out here I can get you started. Also parkour is not a verb. hope to talk to you soon.
Don't step to me with your stats and your date smarts

You know your neighborhood by street signs or landmarks?

 :-[  Oops. My bad. I told you I was new. So sorry. As for coming and seeing you... probably not. I can't legally drive on my own yet but i am very close and my parents don't even know what parkour is let alone that i am going to start doing it. This might be trickier than I thought. I will tell them once I get some more info for myself and I actually can do something. Don't worry. I won't randomly do something amazing and them freak out and be like:
"WTF!?! How did you learn how to do that?" -parents
"I guess I forgot to tell you. All those times I said I was studying and swimming and biking...well...not exactly the truth." -me
"You're grounded till you can legally be emancipated!!!!!!!!!!!!" -parents
"Crap." -me

Again, parkour isn't a verb. It isn't just tricks. Please do some research and homework before presenting them with this. Don't just do a turn vault and "TA DA! SEE? IT IS FUN!!!". That isn't parkour. There is plenty of PK websites and articles that will help you and your parents get in the right mindset about this.

And on a more offensive note.... You clam "I am newer than all of yall. I haven't started yet. Hehehe. I don't know where or how to start. " and "...'Why not learn to parkour?' I am going to learn with my best friend. We are going to teach ourselves and try not to die." Now you are saying that you aren't new. Not only that but you wanna jam with someone now you say that you can't drive and aren't gonna jam with anyone? Then why post here? Are you looking for spots to parkour? You message is very chopped and ummm... shows you age.

Please clearify what you want.
