Not sure, maybe looking at YouTube videos and searching on Google. Maybe increasing your agility, endurance, stamina, speed, and such. Search on ways how.

I don't think there are many experienced people that do parkour on a forum that's on a flash gaming site.

Things that I recommend doing:
Jump rope, jumping jacks, running long distances increases stamina, sprinting short distances increases speed, get a few blocks then stack them up, jump up on them, then go down, and repeat.

I'm not into parkour, but those are some things that could help you with it.

If you have gymnastics available at your school then you should sign up for it. That'd be great practice.

there are quite a few people interested in parkour on this forum, having seen several threads on this i'd say I was relatively experienced.

what are you hitting on the fence? either way I would suggest push up drills, handstands, and front handsprings on a flat surface before flip vaulting a gate, coz failing that could result in a nasty face plant...

as for wall run, exhale as you take off, it really helps the rhythm. I would also look into a technique called blocking, which helps you alter momentum.

If your trying to flip off the fence, I'm assuming you mean like a smaller fence, all you really do, is lock your arms, and kick your legs over.

If you want to do anything, try it on something small first. Try and find a small hand railing or something first, that way if you miss, your not that screwed.

Just a tip for Parkour. First thing you should learn is how to fall into a roll. It takes a large amount of pressure off you and it looks awesome. I sometimes just jump into a roll for no reason just because it looks epic.

well, your lucky im an interested person in parkour even if im barely qualifing it a school.

anyway, your best chance is to try to find an object near that is half the size. jump on that, thenquickly try the gate flip. this is how i would do this at school before they decided to make the plants grow in the cement soil holders. there was a small fence in front of it so i would jump on the ence and then flip over the holder which looks pretty awesome.

Who's to say I don't do parkour? I do it when I get bored all the time.

if you're hitting your head, chances are you don't have enough upper body strength. train as I previously advised!

also, in any flip, you need to think UP, not across or around. i'll explain what that means later.
