“Spiderman Sport”

Imagine being able to live free. Free of this worlds limitation, and being able to move with “mutant like” abilities. To defy gravity, neutons law, Boyle’s theory, and everything in between. To become more than a human of mire incompetence living in a world with rules and regulations. To deny everything that was ever taught to you and live in a world with no rules and more importantly…no LIMITS. In order to survive you must have complete control using balance, strength, and technique. One mistake and you could be looking at you leg in one place and your arm in another. This is their world, a world with no boundaries and no limits. This is Free Running! Free Running is the physical art of unbelievable acrobatics. Participants known as Free Runners use the city and other landscapes to perform specific types of movements on its structure. These moves can vary from acrobatics, to tricks, to other forms of various “street stunts.” Free Running is a sport which personifies complete freedom of movement along with having discipline and balance. Movements can vary from a “360 Wall Run” which the athlete runs at a tall wall and pushes against the wall with their foot to propel themselves up the wall. The only difference between this movement and the 360 wall run is that a 360 degree spin is carried out after kicking off the wall and before grabbing the top of the wall. To a Driving Front Flip which is a front flip being executed over a wall or other obstacle, usually with a large drop on the other side. It is referred to as a diving front flip (or dive front) because the athlete is required to dive over the obstacle before initiating the tuck. These are just a few of the many, many moves used in competitions across the world.
