    First of all let me quickly present my self:
    My name is Pedro, I am from Brazil and I have been in Dublin for 3 weeks to study english (and I pretend to stay at least until May 9).
    I am a traceur (practitioner of parkour) and I LOVEE to run!
    In fact, I am addicted to running and jumping (walking is too booring, you know?)

    Sooo! I want a backpack that fits inside:
    A notebook
    (http://i.s8.com.br/images/papershop/cover/img1/1935691_4.jpg)
    Jacket
    Wallet
    Mobile

    So, small enough to fit my every-day stuff inside and that fits well in me (I dont want it flying away when I start to do my flips hehe)

    I already searched in many bag shops around here, but nothing!
    And some threads in the forum are really old =/

    Hope you guys/girls can help me!

    Thank you,
    Pedro A.

    Hi Pedro,

    We can start your English lessons right now.
    You 'intend' to stay rather than 'pretend' to stay - unless you're only telling us this and you've left the country already! ;)
    Best of luck with your bag search.

    Cheers
    PK

    How much did you pay Pedrao?
    Out of curiosity, where do you practice your parkour?

    Cool! Love the move at 3:20:D

    There's a parkour forum on Boards, but its very quiet.

    I think there's a lot similar between parkour and imra (except you don't get old lads in singlets leaping around in front of the central Bank), you might give it a try some day.

    Thanks man!

    I think its very quiet because we already have pkire.com !

    Similiarity between Parkour and mountain running?
    Parkour is the art of movement. Going from point A to point B the quickest way possible. Thats our mainly objective of training.

    But as soon as I dont know whats imra is about I cannot say for sure...
    But I do think that theres nothing like pakour :D
