Softcore Parkour!
How to Prep More Effectively – Parkour Nerding III
This episode of Parkour Nerding is about how to improve your ability to prepare for challenges in the sport/art of parkour.
Did you catch the joke of why I'm dressed like that for this video? 😂
The list I made:
Types of Preps in PK
Feelers (ex: practicing runup, jumping next to the landing area)
Replicas
-Low-consequence Replicas (ex: less high off the ground)
-Low-difficulty Replicas (ex: smaller gap, bigger landing area, grippier or slanted surface)
-High-difficulty Replicas (generally lower consequence too)
-High-consequence Replicas (generally lower difficulty too)
Regression Moves (ex: instead of kong pre, prep with kong-mount plyo pre)
Chunking (practicing parts of a line or challenge separately)
Consistency/Familiarization Reps
-Drilling Moves
-Drilling Aim
-Drilling Safety Techniques (ex: practicing splats, bounces & cranes, practicing your bail options)
Unrelated Challenges (get a mental win and practice commitment)
Height Exposure (ex: walking on a tall ledge to dull the fear of heights)
Priming Body (ex: warming up, stomping feet as prep for impact, swinging arms or legs to activate takeoff muscles)
Surface Checks & Preparation (ex: dusting walls, pruning branches, wiping shoes, chalking hands)
Spot Modifications & Spotters (ex: placing mats in or around the challenge)
Strategizing & Analyzing (ex: watching someone else do it, examining footage of your preps, dialoguing about optimal runup or technique)
Visualization
Rituals (ex: countdowns, mantras, “shotgun perfect”, turn around and touch the ground, habits, superstitions)
Hype/Peer Pressure/Time Pressure (ex: someone else doing it first, recording, crowd chanting, encouragement, sun setting soon, security otw)
00:00 Intro
01:05 Tip 1
01:30 Tip 2
03:07 Tip 3
04:07 Outro

Parkour Nerding I - Understanding Foot Placement Tech
มุมมอง 2202 หลายเดือนก่อน
My first foray into educational content! I recently decided that I want to use this channel as a place to record everything I know about parkour. I think about PK a lot, but nobody really knows me as a resource yet. Please please please tell me what you think of this in the comments and/or DM me on insta (@egon.parkour)! I appreciate any and all feedback. And of course subscribe for more videos...

This winter marked two years of dailies, and I have now been training for three and a half years. Since my first video in 2020, I have been reluctant to edit another, and this week I realized that, while I am proud of all the clips that were hard for me at the time, it was only in the last year or so that I have seen myself as being good at parkour. I finally feel like I am a fan of my own move...

I have been obsessed with progressing in this silly little game for two whole years now. Here are a bunch of my best clips so far, many of which I've been saving over the last 16 months. Thank you to Matt Jones and James West for creating this wonderful game. It brings so much joy to the lives of me and many others. 💙 Egon
Senior Thesis Presentation + Q&A | Egon Dugas
มุมมอง 1233 ปีที่แล้ว
I wrote my Senior Thesis on how Parkour competitions can be improved. The presentation was definitely geared towards "muggles" and feels sort of incomplete to me now, but I am still proud of it and I really enjoyed the process of learning and thinking and talking and writing about competition for a year. Also, I got to meet some super duper cool athletes virtually and talk to them about parkour...

My two friends and I were asked to make a project that represented modernism in some way, so even though they don't practice parkour, they helped me make a parkour video that shows the themes of fear, absurdity, and experimentation with form. I went crazy with the editing, but this was the first time I've made a video with Premiere Pro and it's starting to make sense.
First Parkour Compilation - Egon Dugas
มุมมอง 2033 ปีที่แล้ว
This documents the highlights of the first four months of my training. My next video will be WAY better!!
Great pointers, hope you keep sharing, subscribed👍🏻
So much cool stuff... the thing at 1:06... I have no mats or anything just the outdoors and myself with no spotters, so i've been afraid to try that move on a typical bar set up hanging up high, but i'm gonna try it sideways like that from a swing structure or something like that :)
It's called a toeshoot! (though you're right this one is unusual because of the slant) and I promise it's an easy move. I learned it by myself on a horizontal tree branch (you can see it in my first TH-cam video of my first couple months of training) obviously the fear of that your hands will lose grip, but if you just focus on holding tight you're definitely gonna be fine (unless grip strength or bodyweight is a big weakness of yours.) I highly recommend you give it a shot! So fun. Sometimes you can find playgrounds or workout parks with lower bars. Whereabouts are you from? And how did you find the video?
@@egondugas thanks for the encouragement and nice to know the name :) I’m from Denmark, been doing martial arts since 2008 and commited to that lifelong journey. Been doing weekly martial arts videos since 2016 and last year i got into movement training… this year parkour has rivaled my passion for martial arts. I always record my parkour so I can watch and learn from it, so ive been finding ways to integrate some of that footage into my weekly martial arts content. Yesterday i uploaded a compilation of mostly martial arts and parkour stuffI recorded here in June :) I’ll try the torshoot next chance I get (got work, 4 year old son, wife) so don’t have that much time for myself, but I find ways… my parkour vision allows me to stop when going from A to B and try out stuff almost daily… and then ocassionally i have some hours for myself.
i know parkour vision is pretty much something you have to aquire, but you could possibly do a video on that?
Yeah I definitely will but I'm gonna have to ponder and have a lot of conversations with people before I make it because I don't think I have all that much wisdom of my own currently.
Really good stuff. Videos like this are the sort of thing that I wish existed more when I started training.
¡This is an amazing explanation! I will use your sprinters example to go deeper and with more detail when explaining to my students.
Yayy thank you for the comment! So glad this was helpful!
That was fun to watch! 😃 So much creative and interesting movement! 🔥😍💪😎👏
Great insight into this side of pk. I am definitely guilty of overprepping things and is something I need to sort out 😆
You can do it! Commitment is it's own skill, I say. Train up your commitment ability so you don't have to always rely on preps!
Soooo excited for future videos!! i learned so much from this!
🧠🧠🧠🤓
a good way of intuiting this might be low G movement ie space station direction change when mid float
Yes! I was thinking mast night I need to study videos of astronauts flipping!
Very interesting! 😲 I always wondered how full-unfull / half-unhalf worked. I think i must favor tilt twisting even though i didn't know what it was (because i tend to do twisting flips straight over the top)...🤓
You can contact twist very inverted if that's your tech, I'm guessing that's most of what's going on but maybe some tilt too!. Tilt twisting is how fullunfull works but half un-half, particularly Arabian unhalf actually uses the third twisting technique that I haven't yet mentioned because I'm still working to fully understand the physics of it: cat twisting.
@@egondugas 😵💫😵😁
Very informative! 🔥😎👋 I thought I knew all about this but i learned a couple things! 🤓
Hell yeah man! What new info was I able to give you?
@@egondugas I've never really thought about the angle of the foot coming into the landing - just the end position. So that was helpful. Also, I thought feet together was just about style. But it makes a lot of sense to keep them together so there is only one point to aim for. 😎🤓
Nice video
Glad you liked it!!
Your looking very preppy in this video
Yayyy somebody got the joke!!
@@egondugas I get it now!
My gymnastics coach gave mis lesson a long time ago using a little dummy and a gyroscope. Loved this version! Very well made, man keep it uP!
I would be super interested to see how they demonstrated it to you because I don't really know how to explain it non-theoretically. Can you DM me on instagram about how he used the dummy and the gyroscope to show you? I'm @egon.parkour 🙏
How cool!
Extremely!
WOOHOO!! EPISODE 3 IS OUTT🙏🙏
Good stuff! I hope you keep making these 😃
That's the plan!!! 😃
Good stuff!
I went to gym with a trampoline to work on backflip double fulls and asked a coach for some tips. He took me back a step to fix my single twist fulls, and broke it down into arabian + front half (back flip with half twist, frontflip with half twist) and i think of it every time i do a back full now So this was incredibly insightful, im interested in applying the tilt twisting to my movement
Hell yeah dude! So happy to hear it! You got Instagram?
egon your videos are actually so cool and informative. i never really knew there was this much thought behind parkour
The examples helped! Also what’s the audio at the very end? I think this would be well supplemented with some homework/ things to try in conjunction with the explanations. The jump and switch your arms is a great example!
Yeah should have cut that audio out of the screen recording 💀 didn't catch it.
Exercises/HW is a great idea 💡
So good! Literally had no idea this existed, I can feel my brain starting to build a parkour data base from your videos. Can't wait to see more, keep it up Egon! ❤ Also I like your idea you mentioned about the mental and cultural side of parkour, I would love to here about those along side the physical aspects and technique. cant wait for #3.
Yayy!! Was it all comprehensible? Anything I can clarify for ya?
@@egondugas yeah, when you said clock wise or counter clockwise arm movements did you mean from your point of view or the cameras?
@@kaysonaxtell2812 I chose to orient my instructions from the athlete's perspective so you can easier translate what I'm saying into your training! 😁
This guy is awesome!
I love that you basically made up a new verb. And I love 'ing' verbs... and it's just such an appropriate adverb for parkour. And if you're ever interested in having a philosophy of movement conversation, I'd love to talk about why it appears to me that verbs might be more accurate representations of reality than nouns!
That sounds super interesting. Would love to talk about this. Also, I was thinking of Nerding as in "nerding out"
“Borderline objectively easier” -Dugas performing a Q. E. D
Love the name! ❤ Parkour Nerding!!!!
Hiiii Egon! The only thing I'd say is filming in a horizontal aspect ratio would be a lot easier to watch. anyways ily!
It’s so interesting to me how before parkour, proper foot placement seems completely unintuitive, from like a primal self preservation point of view. Like when I watch my inexperienced friends it’s always like a wide, flat footed squat. They always tell me that when I start to critique them on technique that it doesn’t make any sense….. until they do their first “proper landing” and it’s like watching a caveman discovering fire for the first time. You can almost see all this new data get transmitted into their brain. But yeah sick video dude. Can wait to see what else you got lined up. And hey, cough cough, if you wanna work together on something I’m always down 🫶.
Great stuff!! Gonna be dming personal notes!!
So good. I was so excited when I heard you had an parkour educational. I really enjoyed it! A few criticism are the vertical format on youtube and the a adio in the beginning was a little quite. Other wise it was good liked the use 9f a and b roll and can't wait for more! ❤🔥
Great video man!
Thank you for watching, man! 🫶 Ok but what sucked lol
@egondugas nothing sucked bro! Looking forward to more of these.
🌸 P r o m o s m
Idk what that means haha
Bro these clips are fire!! Those bails looked gnarly too!🔥🔥🔥
Dude.. so sick and massively creative! I deeply enjoyed that. Amazing edit!
Super traceur you are! Such creative & fun challenges.😀🏅
Few people are really pushing movement into new places in these ways,, it takes creative (and silly) minds ♥️
No rules 😄 love it
🙈 Thank you Sensei. ❤️
Yooo this was fantastic! Your sticks are next level man!
Hey, thank you for saying that, man. I was actually thinking most of stick tech in this video was ugly. I had to cut most of my real dingers cause the challenges weren't cool enough.
@egondugas5959 welcome and personally I wouldn't mind seeing that b-roll footage 🤣
@@lunisPk it's all on my Instagram or my daily account. I didn't save any clips for this video, but I'm already planning my next one, and I definitely will save for that.
@egondugas5959 looking forward to the next project, heading over to instagram now.
Rare bald Egon clip!!
Oldest shot in the video. That was back in high school! My first line I ever liked.
@@egondugas i remember when you filmed that line 🫶
Dude... this is so good!!!!!!! Made me happy made me sweaty
Thank you Ben! 🥰🥰🥰
some of these blew me away with how fire they were sheeesh this was sick!
Wow, thank you so much Saben! What were some of the standouts to you?
Sick! That backward pre was waat 🤯
You talking about 2:35 or 3:09?
Both! Perfectly done 👏
Fucking smashed it man! Your movement style is so uniquely you, it's really fun to watch. All the challenges are highly technical in nature yet the flow is still creative and captivating! Definitely excited to see future vids, so never stop making them! - Dude from Houston PK
Such sweet words from an anonymous Houstonian. If we haven't yet met, I hope we get to train together sometime soon! You can introduce yourself as TheWeeklyNews, the dude who left the nice comment on my video. 🥰
definitely some cool things I've never seen before
Yay!
Such a unique style
Man so many of these just looked like genuinely fun things. Would love to train together someday! Come out CincyJam if you're free Oct 11-13
Thank you Seth! I would absolutely love to. And Swift Movement is at the top of my list for US gyms I wanna visit, so it's definitely happening at some point. 🤝
Dude placement, art
Placement art, dude.
Some really lovely stuff in here :)
Tom Uzer you're gonna make me blush 🥹 You and Felix are definitely two of my biggest inspirations.
Nice 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I miss you man 🥺
Also the box jump is crazy, the backwards position jumps are sick too.
Yeah I know I can go bigger and higher-consequence with the backwards pres, but the box jump was my max, and I'd probably have to lose some weight if I wanted to replicate or surpass it. My mouth height is what it was. My mouth if I'm standing my tallest.
