Lightbulb (Vids) Footwork Practice, feedback wanted :) - 06-29-2006, 12:26 AM

What up fellas, I'm just currently a little unhappy with my downrock and I'd love to hear some tips and comments on them.

I'll put them in ascending order so you can (hopefully) see any improvements I've made and tell me where to start polishing up.

I make up my sets as I go along, so don't mind the fact that I only do a few different kinds of steps per set, I'll start adding more of them together after I clean them up.






you just lost the game.

there is progression dude your tops are good but your foorwork is slow an not very neat but your hips are idd almost always on the same level quite nice to see an for the fingers they'll get tough.... for the tiredness mabye go joggin or ropejumpin or sumtin your foorwork will get faster and you won't be so fast tired

the thing is, it looks like there's mad hesitations.

not that, but... argh how do i say this... well you need to get more energy into your footwork, get it faster, and don't jump the steps. you need to glide from step to step, it makes it look smoother and less bumpy.

nice tops btw XD

In every one of my practices I'm making up my steps as I go along, should I make up a set in my mind before I go down? Or should I just... uh... clean up my freestyle lol. I think my worst problem is that I'm already tired from my toprock before I go to downrock.

NO u should just improvise and go with the feel. But then if ur so tired from toprock that u cant footwork I suggest that u see a doctor

lol I don't think I need to see a doctor I just get out of breath and sweaty from toprock and then by the end of my practice I'm usually beat. I don't know whats up with my body as of right now, so much pain and I feel weak and out of shape yet I practice more than ever. :\
