Pakour - Free Running Anonymous
All you tracuers and free runners on /fit/ I need your help. I'm currently in the market to buy a new pair of shoes for training and want your opinions on what I should buy.

Pic is of my current shoes, but they're all worn out.

what's the difference between these and the sprints?

the human feet didnt evolve over the years for you to put it in a shoe to run.
running barefoot or with>>343438

This covers your entire foot. Sprint only has the strap on top to keep it from falling off but does not cover the entire foot.

oldfag /fit/ties need to stop trolling with the five finger shoes. i realize theyre the biggest amount of bullshit ever, but those who are just getting involved in a fitness oriented lifestyle will fall under the influence of your terrible trolling, and there may be those out there that buy these awful products. STOP. the people that frequent /fit/ that are fit should not misdirect others from improving their fitness, because the majority of the western world encourages fat-ass-ness.

the Ariake Lites by K-swiss are probably your best bet for Parkour related shoes. I've never used the 5 fingers, but it seems a little gimmicky to me. Go barefoot if you want to "feel" the ground. The argument that the human foot didn't evolve for thousands of years to wear shoes is bullshit. Considering the fact that thousands of years ago we didn't walk on flat concrete and asphalt.

vibrams are the most ridiculous bullshit ive ever seen. dont try to tell me other arent trolling with them, theyre fucking damn near a meme because of how ridiculous they are.

Can you even read? I didn't suggest them for any kind of competitive athletics, I suggested them for the kind of stuff where you do backflips off brick walls for fun. Yes, they're the best shoes you can buy for that, and I speak from both experience and what seems to be the general consensus among people with experience. If you have any kind of alternative suggestion, please state it. If you're arguing on the basis of "HURR DURR DEMN SHUZE DUNT LUK LYK NO SHUZE I EVAR DID SEE SO'S DEMS SHUZE MUSTA BE DA WURK OV SATEN", then get the fuck out.

yeah, i certainly have alternative suggestions other than dumb as shit vibrams. they're called shoes, you fucking idiot. vibrams are rubber fucking socks, and i doubt you even own a pair. let me guess, after i respond to this, you're either going to drop the tripcode and claim i've been trolled, orrrrr...actually i can't imagine an alternative because these rubber socks are the most foolish things ive ever seen.

better alternatives? how about any pair of running, hiking, or climbing SHOES ever fucking made, you dumb gullible piece of shit.

You're very new here, aren't you? Nothing you suggested is good for what is essentially outdoor gymnastics. Rubber socks? Sounds good to me. You so have absolutely no idea what you're talking about that I'm very clearly being trolled here.

that's just it isn't it? tripfags try to make some certain stake in a an anonymous website that other anons don;t/ i very much doubt you've been lurking /fit/ or 4chan as long as i have, but i couldn't give a shit less if you havent, because you instantly prove yourself a jackass by 1: being in favor of vibrams and 2: being a tripfag on an anonymous website.

you're an idiot.
>> well fuck your shit !SvVHiVQG4I
>>343572
The very fact that it is possible to use tripcodes, the fact that they have been programmed into 4chan for use, means that it is NOT SUPPOSED TO BE AN ENTIRELY ANONYMOUS BOARD.

If you had anything valid to add to this board, as opposed to idiotic trolling, you'd probably use one too. As it stands, you'll probably enjoy yourself more if you go back to /b/.

why would this site be built around the anonymous foundation if it wasn't meant to be used in a an anonymous fashion?

the only people who shouldn't be anonymous on this website are the mods, and the good mods delete threads when moderation is necessary.

Yeah, avoid that shit. You want to run in running shoes (whether they're big wedge soled shoes or flats is down to your running technique.) You will beat your ankles and knees to fucking death in Vans.

Dude, he's not lying about the vibrams. It's too late for trolling so try to be reasonable. If you've ever ran barefoot then you'd know how much better they feel.
>> well fuck your shit !SvVHiVQG4I
>>343587
Tripcodes were specifically added to the site with the intention of being used. "Anonymous" isn't a foundation, or a club, or a gang, or a group, you stupid child. It's a default username for people who don't want to bother establishing themselves on the board.

tl;dr you're wrong, go BAAAWWWWW somewhere else.

I just got myself a pair of Reebok Hexalite somethings.
I haven't tried walking with them yet, but they fit well, and have nice cushioning.
I got them for like 30 USD.

you're obviously too ignorant to understand my usage of the term "foundation". by "foundation" i mean this site was obviously modeled after the japanese 2chan, which is an ANONYMOUS WEBSITE by design, to encourage maximum participation and the most enriching discussions on the internet possible, not hindered by names or titles or ranking. but you can continue to respond to me if you like, tripfag. all you succeed in doing is reinforcing my point; that you are a jackass that is not worth mentioning or listening to.

If you want to post on an anonymous board, go to 2chan. No matter how much you whine and cry and throw a tantrum, it's not going to change the fact that Moot programmed tripcodes into 4chan for a reason.

Now, as much as I love being trolled by little kids who wandered away from /b/ and can't find their way back, you're wrong, I've proven this, and unless you want to have an actual discussion about fitness, I'm done here.

I like the argument about running bare foot.
So? What do you do when you want feel like running barefoot, because human evolution wasn't designed for shoes? You put on some fucking shoes.

This logical falacy alone made me despise these abominations.

you should be done, tripfag. to argue that there is a reason moot "programmed" the ability for tripcodes to function in 4chan and ultimately there is a "reason" for it - is to scream "I'M SO GLAD TRIPCODES FUNCTION IN A 99.99% ANONYMOUS WEBSITE BECAUSE I CAN SPEW MY DUMB FUCKING OPINIONS AND BE RECOGNIZED FOR IT" vs. tripcodes work because some mods were meant to use them for public moderation.

It's for the people that don't want to wait a few weeks for the soles of their feet to toughen up. Seriously, having to stop running because a tiny fucking pebble had the nerve to embed itself inside of my foot sucks. This is the best way for pussies like me to run without worrying about that.

If Moot didn't specifically intend for users to use tripcodes then he wouldn't have specifically made them available to users, with instructions on how to use them in the FAQ. How brutally retarded are you?

That said, you're adding absolutely nothing to this board and I'm reporting your posts.

Um, moot didn't program 4chan to do anything. He stole the code from 2chan and has people like coda and WTSnacks (not anymore I don't think) work on it.

Also, what the guy said before me is true, tripcodes are meant to be used in story threads and stuff because it allows the OP to be recognised.

Stop trying to be clever, you're just another tripcode-wannabe-coolguy and I doubt you'll still be here in a month.
