SPINS SUB-FORUM
This sub-forum is dedicated to Spins.

Spins is a general term that covers areas such as headspins, backspins, shoulderspins etc.

Most of the more complex and advanced powermoves stem from the same beginnings.


Drills (aka: one shot headspins) were invented by Swayne from Zulu Kings. He did this move on concrete, with no hat. he felt that hats, and shiny floors were too dangerous for this move.

Backspins were originally done by JoJo. Mongo, and then later Crazy Legs went on to further develop the move. Crazy legs main contribution being the one that led to the creation of windmills.


If you want to learn other rotational moves, they are in different sections.
For Turtles(rotating), UFO's, Handglides, Floats etc, use the Floats sub-forum.
For 1990's, use the Handstand Moves sub-forum.


GENERAL RULES
These sub-forums are meant for teaching, learning, discussing and troubleshooting specific parts of the bboy and uprock styles of dance.

Before you post a new thread/topic about a movement, look through the more recent posts and see if it has already been answered.

If you want to learn the move, don't post a thread saying "teach me" - look at the existing tutorials, try the move, and then if you have a specific problem, feel free to ask about it.

DO NOT SPAM.
DO NOT FREEPOST.
DO NOT POST OFF TOPIC.

Anyone breaking those three rules, or giving advice/instruction about a move they clearly do not understand will have their post deleted.

This area (the moves forum) has long been chock-full of bad advice, and people teaching techniques that are totally wrong and at best will slow down your learning drastically, at worse they could lead to serious physical injury.
These new measures are in the best interests of anyone learning moves from this site.

Thanks a lot...

The Mod team.
