Parkour: How the hell do I get into it?

[Falcondude]

And how would Parkour be possible in blockland? No option to swing, grab and look badass.

You know, it'd be cool if you could grab onto ledges.

I am actually trying to do that with events right now, I am working on it and pretty much have the idea in my head :D

Certain bricks actually do allow you to use them as a "foothold" and you can use them to jump higher.

Ive noticed this but havent found out how to manipulate it.  Sometimes you jump like 2 or 3 times your usual jump height. 

Oh and Vert wtf are you doing on train tracks lol
They've got cameras all in the subways and the elevated parts of the lines here.  I think they make you pay like $500 bucks if cops catch you.  What happened to you and your friends?

I've posted it several times on the forums.
And as I've stated in the thread, we were jumping from building to building and climbing into and onto abandoned factories.

1st time getting caught:
We were trying to get on top of this one factory, but decided we couldn't so we all gathered at the bottom and just talked. Cops pull by, me and my 2 friends run while some other friend that was with us stays (he had a knife in his pocket, so that was pretty dumb of him too) and the cops drive him home and talk to his parents. Nothing happened to me or the 2 friends that ran.

2nd time:
We went into this random abandoned small place. There happened to be a poker set inside so we played poker. The workers from across the streets somehow managed to see us so we used our epic parkour skills to get away. After we got away we keep going and some old man starts taking photographs of us for no reason. My friend had the genius idea of going inside of his little factory and loving around, so we did.
We went out after 10 minutes due to not seeing him, doing absolutely no damage to anything.
We come back a good 4 hours later on our way home and we find around 5 cop cars around his little factory thing. It was night so we ran by and they didn't see us. We decided to go into the street and walk home that way, but little did we know the cops were circling the block.
So we get caught, the guy starts questioning us and use the bad cop good cop thing. They claimed that we stole a winch (We didn't. heck none of us even knew what a winch was at the time). One of my friends starts bawing and then they drive us home, talk to our parents, that's about it.

3rd time:
We were all bored and decided to go into the train tracks again (hurr durr move) and we get caught by the railway police. He just takes down our info, says if he sees us again it'll be a fine of $500 and leaves us be. We haven't come back since.

Random people catching us:
- Hobo chased us once because we went into his little garden thing by accident. :(
- factory workers saw us often and attempted to catch us
- Security guard chased us because we went inside some pool that was closed off. He ended up buying an ice cream and walking after us for a good 20 minutes.

We decided to take it to the next level during the summer time and so started doing parkour. Now we are waiting for summer time again to do some flips.

I was play GMod parkour just before.

Nice.  Any cool stuff in any of the factories?  Like equipment or laboratories? Id think there'd just be crackheads or something lol

[Vertzer]

I found Spongebob for the GBA once. :3
We also found a soccer ball and a bunch of pokemon cards that we threw off of the roof and watched them fall down. It was pretty.

There was also this hobo hideout with a lot, seriously a lot of stuff. He had a propane tank, flashlights, research magz,  a bunch of different tools, food, lighters, etc.
Other than that there wasn't anything special. We once found this drunk girl though and I wanted to poke her with a stick but my friend insisted that we move on because he wanted to show us something. When we came up she was already gone. :'(

Oh we also found a pigeon with a broken wing once. My friend is an animal lover and everything so he wanted to get some help for it. He tried asking the houses nearby but they all either said "let's barbecue it" jokingly or told him to go away. So he left it on this man's porch and the guy said he'll press charges and started chasing us. He was fat though so he didn't jump the fence.

Oh I completely forgot, we also climbed every school in the neighborhood except this one school that is pretty much a giant white square that's unclimbable. We always find a bunch of different balls up there.

Ha good stuff, it seems like it would definitley be better and more fun to explore and do parkour with some teammates or friends,  no?

[Vertzer]

Yeah, going outside by yourself isn't all too exciting.

Ok, well I think thats really my only problem then I suppose.  I have friends, but not really any friends that I can go to and say. "HEY, lets go do this!" or whatever
