Spots are everywhere!

Parkour spots are everywhere. In any country, in any city, on any street.
You can use anything to train; you don't need to wait for the things other people validate as "training objects".

So many tracers go every single time to the same places where everybody goes, in order to do there what everybody does and did before them. They go to Lisses, to do the jumps David Belle did; Paris 13 to do the "Foucan armjump" (as they call it). It's like they can't find anything themselves, and have to go where the others went before to imitate them.
I've always liked working on imagination and creativity, go to some unknown place, alone, and look at things with this eye that tries to see what doesn't show itself spontaneously.
We have so many things to train everywhere! I like to use anything I find, and not to look for the "perfect place" with this and that. I think the way you look at things says a lot on who you are, as a traceur, and as a person too.
These bits of my trainings have been all recorded this winter, between the 1st of January 2012 and the 19 March 2012, respecting some strict rules I chose to impose to myself during all my winter trainings:
1-Train on my own the whole winter.
2-Train in and only in my neighbourhood (Paris 14th district).
3-Never go on the socalled "spots" where everybody goes, and rather than that discover places and things that are new to me.
4-Try anything I would see on my way, and in case I don't have the time, write it on a notebook, and come back later to try it. That means I wasn't actually looking for new parkour training things to do as an activity, but was walking through the streets of my neighbourhood, going from a place to another to do my everyday life things, while looking around me, and thinking every time I saw something: "I should come back here and try that!".
5-Repeat any of the things I was training until I feel I can't do it any faster or with any more control.
6-Film it then.
