crickets is way cooler and much harder than turtles , crickets is one of my favorite moves , though i have problems with hopping thing lol , which is basically the whole idea

I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself.

HAHA. Crickets depends on power. Turtles is dependant on technique. HAHA before i started to learn crickets i trained floats first. If you train floats on both elbows it'll be easier for both. You don't need that much arm strength for both lol. It'll be great if you train both at the same time. By then you got a powerstabcombo! Haha i only have the crappy versions of both of the moves lol...

I guess it depends on the speed of the turtles.
I got turtles down first.
Then crickets came amazingly easy.
But now I've lost my turtles because I started working on darkhammers and I can't transfer weight properly on turtles anymore.
Pfft.

But I still prefer crickets because they have the hopping effect.
