Ok the idea is this. You're given an ending point, and the object is to reach it. Catch is, you have to complete it in the fastest time possible versus others, or in other words, you have to do crazy stuff like bypassing walls by climbing over them, jumping down stairwells, flipping over hedges and for the pros, even crazier stuff like jumping off from the second storey of a building, and then getting back on your feet to run again. Basically it's like a urban obstacle race.
I heard some people have their own scoring system for style, speed and what not when running, but i'm not really sure of that. Only tried the sport once, and that once was enough to scare me. :lol:

The sickening "crack" and the limb is twisted in a most awkward manner. I guess it's all about the technique of learning to fall properly, balance etc. There was one Discovery Channel did a documentary on french guys who free ran. Now that was really awesome. Did anyone watch that?
