  7. PARKOUR is to move from one point to another as smoothly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body. This means overcoming obstacles encountered on the route, such as billboards, walls, etc (in urban environments) and even trees, rock formations, rivers, etc.. (in rural).(ANDREA VERDUGO)

  11. This sport is very difficult. I was practicing it for some time and really I didn't progress much.

    It requires much perseverance and resistance and not be afraid of falling.
