Pretty cool moves...for a bunch of people doing gymnastics.

Cool. I want to get my kids into parkour when they're old enough, so they can be useful in the resistance once everything in the West goes to shit. Just kidding... partially.

It seems like parkour tries to be a modern reinterpretation of gymnastics.

Why are they all wearing baggy clothes? I'm sure they don't help much with padding, but they probably get in the way when flipping.

More like a reinterpretation of the obstacle course in an urban setting. If you're talking about doing gymnastics while running, then you're talking about "free running", which is not the same as parkour, "l'art du déplacement" (art of moving). Parkour is an art, as in martial art, whereas free running is "do whatever you want while running as long as it looks good". Parkour can and should look good too, but efficiency is paramount.
