Backyard-Racing

One of the many sports that is a branch of Darkour.

Backyard-Racing involves one or more person(s) that find themselves hopping fences through the suburbs for various reason. It can be defined as: random fun, escape routes, stealing bikes, breaking lawn furniture, pool hopping, entering unlocked garages, ripping down clothes lines, placing lawn furniture in neighbors yard (neighboring), féncing, looking for grown marajuana, trampoline jumping, hammock squatting or anything creatively hell raising.

Usually best to do at night although guard dogs can be a problem.

And not too fun in the winter, considering wet socks are the most buzzkill thing that can happen to a person.

A term used to describe the proliferation of backyard play items in a post COVID world- starts with swing sets and basketball hoops. Then come soccer/lacrosse nets and a zip line. As all sides of the neighborhood fence add these items, one neighbor gets the trampoline (aka Mormon Babysitter). Then trampolines everywhere. Winter comes? Backyard skating rinks. The sides build their arsenals until balance is restored. A rink for every kid.

Then the goddamn Smiths at the end of the cul-de-sac get the sports court and the race is BACK ON.
