Any penalties?
- Is it illegal to hurdle a lineman? Yes...it's illegal to hurdle any opponent. Just make sure that you read NF 2-21 to fully understand what hurdling is.
- Is it illegal to launch yourself off the center's back? Yes. It's a personal foul to position yourself on the shoulders or body of an opponent or teammate in order to gain an advantage.
- Is it illegal to launch yourself off of ANY o-lineman's back? Same

I can go with the hurdling but I don't agree that vaulting on jumping while using my arms to push up against another player in order to get hight would be "positioning".
