I thing I noticed, (even as a beginner) your arms had no energy while you were doing toprock, and it doesn't really compliment your steps.

u look like ur lost. u look like ur doing a toprock motion....but while doing so ur throwing things together and seeing if it works.

i think ur jus rushing to learn toprock and footwork too fast. it would be alot better if you show us a vid of ur BASIC toprock and then we'll give u tips...and then u make it more advanced from then on.

same with your footwork...you're mixing alot of steps together and haven't mastered any of them yet. you should show us strictly 6-step or strictly 3-step or strictly 12-step etc. and record it so we can give u advice on those particular steps rather than ur footwork as a whole

ahhahaha that dog owned u!

Dog! I love the dog. I love dogs.

Anyway I think it wasn't bad. I've seen a lot worse on some good battlers, who rely more on the dopeness of their other moves.

Though on a lot of parts of your toprock, I was expecting to see a knee drop somewhere. There were a lot of parts near the end of your tops where you seemed like you were kicking your legs wildly. That's okay, but if it'd ended up a knee drop to transition into your floorwork it would've looked better.

But I like the flow of your routine. It's a decent styler set. I assume that because your dog interrupted you, you weren't able to show a finishing move, so I won't judge you on that. But the thing itself was okay. You just need some tricks to make the routine dope. Particularly signature styles/combos. You can work on that kind of stuff as you practice.

I recommend putting simple moves that you link together, like some threading on the floor, or a sweep swipe or something. Maybe even a knee slide/spin somewhere. The reason for this is so that you don't look like you're just making the stuff up as you go. So it looks like you really know what you're doing, and you're in control of your moves. If they see a clear-cut combo done, and if you do it properly, that's what makes styler sets dope, and that's how to beat powerheads, especially if you look like you're more in control than a powerhead opponent.

Keep practicing though, and pet your dog for me.
