Parkour Edit
Art Movement and Extreme Sport

Parkour is an urban art movement / extreme sport where participants, known as traucers or tracers, jump between buildings and create fast, fluid and technical moves.  As you can imagine, it is very dangerous.

While some define Parjour as an extreme sport, the players affirm that Parkour is a life philosophy.

The system was created by the end of 80’s by David Belle, who began to develop the movement in the suburbs of Paris inspired by the skills that his father had as a voluntary fireman.

In the advanced levels, traucers walk at great heights by jumping between the buildings in urban construction at great distances from the ground. For that reason it is necessary to advance one’s skill slowly. Every day more and more fans are attracted to this sport. They can be seen at the Costa Salguero, Aeroparque, Puerto Madero and ATC.

Generally the sport takes place at nights because there is less people and the urban obstacles are free.
