For a full guide to this video, please visit: www.americanparkour.com The purpose of the new efficiency analysis series is to compare, critique, and analyze different methods and techniques in parkour to conclude what is efficient and what is not. There are many thoughts and ideas about what is efficient in parkour, but this series aims to thoroughly analyze and prove what truly is the most efficient way. The first part in this series will highlight a common flaw in rolling and compare it to a more efficient way.

Phat ass Sat and Smooth hair Ryan, dam, great vid haha!
the song is actually Remember Me by Cunninlynguists. It says 93 til Infinity by Souls of Mischief in the credits but I goofed!
Personally.. I feel the second roll, if you figured out how not to clip your foot, is better. It puts you in a more in line position when coming out.(beneficial for speed and momentum shift, obviously) and reduces the fact that you have to swing your leg to the front… which can cause knee cartilage problems.
My take on it.
LOL I roll the bad way according to this video… Look on my videos how I roll..
those are just dive rolls?
Those are so easy.
thanks pat
Thanks for showing us how to roll, alot of people mistakenly do rolls and end up hurting their back or their neck, sometimes both like me.
First off they weren’t dive rolls. Second, rolling in general will take a lifetime to perfect, and even then it won’t be 100% there. Learn to respect other traceurs, and not to make such a fool to yourself.

That was in response to “inufreaknow”.
nothing is bad,you get off faster with the roll he ment. after the roll you can gain more acceralation and run faster away
Sorry I meant to say I enjoy doing those and it’s easy for me because I take martial arts, so I’ve had training.
Didn’t mean to bash on anyone.
the only problem i have with roll is that if i do it onn something hard… like concrete my shoulder hurts
Thanks a bunch for this vid. God doing a roll is hard!! I keep going into the roll to hard. X_X
Thanks for this great analysis, i didn’t realize the difference before!
this anallys is really helpful! thx!
not sure if you’ll see this or if you’ve worked it out already. but you want to have a tiny bit of pop when your feet hit the ground. so that you have a bit of vertical displacement. cause you want to land on the meaty part of shoulder, around the blade. and make your way to the hip on the opposite side. if you’re doing that already, then just practice it. cause your body will grow muscle there the more exposure it gets. just takes time
thx
nice video ,thanks.
What if you have no way of finding buildings like this in a walking distance? I don’t live in the urban area and probably most people who want to do parkour don’t either. So what do I do?
Why do you need buildings to practice this drill? Just go find a grassy field.
Well what kind of stuff can I do on grassy fields I mean? Most videos I see uses some kind of urban setting. Can’t really do a cat leap on just plain grass.
grassy fields are for landing and rolling, also good for practicing wall movement like wall flip. If you want to do cat leap, GO AND FIND A WALL
@Sylar000000 WRONG
look around and wat do you see…..exactly grass……look beyond that man most things about pk can be learned by being on flatland frm precision jumping to vaults. I know theres some sort of woods or playground near you dude utilize it.
When i was doing my rolls months ago, i watched this vid, right afte I made a 1 month goofy vid, and then i went and watched all my vid and analysed my rolls, I was like “son of a bitch, i suck.” but now everytime i roll i make sure i do it this way, the way i used to roll i noticed i always had to fight to get my balance before i ran again. Demon has a lot of rep and i respect him, so i’ll follow his every move, Keep on rocking us!
