Hey Bouncy People
« on: March 18, 2008, 11:16:36 PM »
Hey, I'm Brendan (aka, B/NeoNinja/Neo/Ninja...hey you! etc.)

I like martial arts, Parkour, free-running, tricking, gymnastics, snow-sports, and as of two days ago... Pro-Jumping! ;) I got some for my Birthday. It was a huge surprise since I never asked for any, but I'm extatic to have some. ;D It took me about 2mins to start walking, jumping, then hopping on them... but I don't think I'll try flips until my wrist gets better (broke it in a motor-bike crash).

I currently live in Cannock (near Stafford and Tamworth) but I used to live in Norwich. Shame I didn't know this existed in this country when I lived in Norwich! :rolleyes:

I look forward to meeting some people as soon as the weather gets better. :) Til then, I think I'll just train on them in the gym. :) See'ya around.

Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

Hey Spud, sounds like you've met Lukman. :D ...I may have even heard of you on the NRPK site. Small world! :) Maybe I'll see you around next time I'm in Norwich. :)

You're right. I did struggle to handstand in bocks! I got some today, and they're an awful lot heavier than those peg stilts I borrowed off you.

Oh, and by the way... Hi Brendan!
