Yeti: However, one of the EDF mods is a super fan of parkour, so perhaps this thread will do OK!

garcia: I think this is one of the coolest sports around. Gymnastics is definitely a very helpful base skill to have. There are plenty of parkour clubs in tons of cities now where anyone can get started, but the more gymnastics training/experience you have before getting started, the better. In terms of being able to do stuff, strength is hugely critical (as is flexibility). But in terms of preventing injury, flexibility is probably more important. Wikipedia has a bunch of good background info, and there are tons of great videos on YouTube. David Belle and Sébastien Foucan are two prominent parkour guys who have tons of great videos up. I started a Parkour video thread in LOL a while back. This Russian video is one of my favorites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rxv8SS1XU_8
