  • Comment: I don't really get what this has got to do with parkour. There's not a wall in sight. This guy could just as easily be an acrobat, or jumping from a trampoline. J Milburn (talk) 10:28, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Also, there's a list of parkour moves in the article- what is he performing? J Milburn (talk) 10:29, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong oppose. Low EV - tells me almost nothing about parkour, per Milburn's comments. Easily the lowest EV image in the article and was only just added by the nominator; it's a schemozzle, it doesn't even have an image caption, and probably should come out. Regardless of that, it also has poor image quality due to overly aggressive jpeg downsampling. There is heavy jpeg artifacting, particularly noticeable on his pants, but also quite apparent in the sky. Sorry for being rather harsh, but besides being far from an FP, this is poor Wikipedia practice. --jjron (talk) 15:08, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Per J Milburn JFitch (talk) 19:51, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment this is more freerunning (parkour is efficiency based, backflips are freerunning or gymnastics), and has been deleted from the parkour article.
  • Unfortunate oppose. The pose, angle and background are great, but. Poor centering (too tight on the left) and yes, unclear topic - there are literally several dozens of possibilities for this jump (where, from where and to where) which we can't tell from the picture.
