This European Standard specifies requirements for parkour equipment for use mainly by users starting from 8 years of age. This European Standard recognizes that parkour movement is personally determined by users, using controlled physical exertion from, to and through equipment elements and structures; both permanently installed and portable.<\/p>\n
The requirements are intended to protect users from hazards that they might be unable to foresee when using the equipment as intended, or in a manner that can be reasonably anticipated.<\/p>\n
This European Standard also specifies requirements for the installation and maintenance of parkour equipment, including area, height, flow, location and separation from other facilities, including children\u2019s playgrounds and multi-use games areas (free access multi-sports equipment).<\/p>\n
As listed above, this European Standard is only applicable to parkour equipment, installation and maintenance, but not for example to parkour activities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
