I've tried a few precisions before on low rails, pennies and bricks but am curious what other people will be doing them on durring this challenge to give me some insight for further work.  Would each person please tell what they did precisions on?

+40. I added wrong before, and I did a few more as a demo today.

I'm going to post a picture... probably tomorrow... of where I'm doing a lot of precisions lately. It's awesome. That's all I'll say.

Yeah, excellent setup there.  I think once I start going for it I know exactly where I'm going to do mine...  Let me see if I can find a pic.

There.  All those little nubs, there's got to be at least 70 of them.

So, This is my 2nd post. I am totally new to parkour though and just discovered it. I got on this google trip and I read everything and anything I could for 10 hours straight. Then I spent the next few days exploring this website. I really like the communitiy feel of this website. Anyways, I got a buddy of mine to go to the railroad tracks with me and we practices for an hour, I only actually "stuck" 12 in the hour, most of them I went flying forward, anyways, I can see how useful form is.

sooo + 12

I was in Philly for a fantastic jam this weekend. I'd estimate and round to +200.

810.

Roughly 200 over the last few days.

810 + 200 = 1010
Overdrive: 2. extra hard level of activity: a particularly intense and productive mode of activity, usually possible only for short periods

Didn't have much time yesterday, been working on a CS project.

+50

= 1508

edit: Just out of curiosity how intense are your jumps? I'm going at about 70-80% of my max, just wondering how hard you guys are pushing yourselves  :)

Mine haven't been that long, but they have been in quick succession and on rounded surfaces, so it kind of balances out I guess.
