Advice on my foot - 06-24-2007, 08:53 PM

Yo. Joined this site a year ago (Maybe longer?) knowing that I will start bboying but never did. So i am finally starting now (Started 2 weeks ago) and learned some basic footwork.



I know my footwork is repetitive but w/e. Give me some advice on what to improve on and what step I should add or learn.




I,m bored. Lets battle!

Learn CiCis. It kinda looked like u did one or try to do one, but it didn't look like it.

Try to not have ur hands on the ground as much, but since ur barely starting thats fine for right now. I think.


Tops are a bit repetative and u look kinda like me, after I got knocked the fuck out by my girlfriends dad when I asked him for a condom.

try to extend your legs more in your footwork, and also practice keeping your palms off of the ground.

Well. I just found a guide on to do a Cici I think.


I tried to do a Cici (Or shuffle...) in the middle but failed...but ended up doing at the end. Oh I tried to do all the things you guys told me to do. Well tried anyways

Um you need to slow down, by the looks of it you can't control your footwork at the speed you're doing it, and your comment proved my point cause you weren't able to Cici in between your sixstep or whatever you were doing

slow the fuck down... And get your feet tucked in more at the front of your 6-step, your hips are way too low and youre sitting on your ass.
