wall running
Parkour surface traversal
Wall running is a parkour and video game technique where a person sprints along a vertical surface for a few steps before gravity pulls them down.
In real life, it requires momentum and precise footwork: He wall-ran past the security barrier.
In games, wall running often defies physics, letting characters traverse longer distances or chain moves together: The level design relies heavily on wall running.
