Dash hurdles?
« on: November 10, 2007, 05:08:16 PM »
Hey guys I was recently watching the movie Ong-Bak and in the scene in which the badguys are chasing Tony Jaa through the market place I noticed he performed a series of leaps that reminded me of a dash vault only without the use of his hands to make it a vault sort of hurdling it if you will. I've been practicing these dash hurdles lately and have found them to be a pretty damn useful and fun move to add to my repotoire. just curious if any one else uses these.

 Oh those are cool, it is just like jumping forward but lifitng your legs straigh.
 
 This is an old vid but on .55 I do something like it, although i am still touching because of the size of the gap.

It's called a Pike Jump.  I can't do them very well, tight hammys.

Parkour has helped me grow as much mentally as it has physically.
