David Belle started when he was 15, but I've helped start a few kids under 12. I've also seen men above 40 perform greatly. You'd be surprised what your body can do; and you could never know that you can't do this until you've full heartily tried. For the third question, it's both. Often it is fun to go to a foreign city or your own and just mess about having fun. Other times, you can go on somewhat of a "preplanned route" simply because you know what obstacles are strong enough to support your own weight and movement. It is completely free form.
