Hello, I am here again to talk about parkour and freerunning. In my last topic I talked about how to do a few parkour moves. I just realized I didn't cover any freerunning moves, so this post will be on how to do a few different freerunning moves.
The first one I am going to cover is the front flip. Like I mentioned in a previous blog, there are many different types of front flips. I will cover the basic front flip along with a slightly more complicated webster front flip. To do a regular front flip, whether it is off an object, or simply just on a trampoline, you need to flip at the top of your height/ jump. By that I mean you don't try to flip right when your feet hit the ground and goes as fast as you possible can. You need to start to flip right before you feel you are going to fall down. For the flipping itself you just throw your arms at the ground and grab your knees. It should look like a cannonball position. Then when you feel your flip ending you release and land. You will get a feel for it eventually. A picture of a man doing a front flip is below.
The next front flip I am going to cover is a webster. A webster is a flip like I also mentioned in an earlier blog, is meant for going from a higher object to a lower object. It is really hard to do a webster on a trampoline. I have a clip of me doing a webster in a previous blog. You can find that here.
To do one you don't jump up that much. Once you get up on the object you just grab on of your legs and the momentum will flip you. Then you land either in a roll or one foot after another so you can keep running. A picture of a kid about to do a webster is pictured below.
The final move I will cover is the wall spin. I have shown me doing a wall spin before in previous blogs.
When you start off doing wall spins I would suggest that you start running at the wall at an angle instead of just running straight at it. Once you get up close to it you jump and out your arms out on the wall. Then you scissor them away from each other. By that I mean you pull them in opposite direction to get the rotation needed. Then, you land it on two feet.
Those are all the moves I am going to talk about in this post. If you want to learn how to do other vaults and moves just go to the link below.
