I dont like crickets. There impressive, but i just dont like the way they look. Handglides can be a power move if you can do them clean and fast. and in a set.

hand glides are NOTHING compared to crickets
You might get props from non-bboy crowds but with bboy crowds, you'll probably get the elbow about 300 times a second from every person.




I think its hilarious how people on this site have a huge "moves list" of BS crap that they can't do and they also have no videos at all to back them up.

i personally dont like handglides, of course they look good to a noob, but when doing in front of real pros, youll have to be doing them extremely fast and as straight as you can get them for them to be impressive, thats IMO btw, others think its the best move evar, i just dont tihnk its that great being a power head and having both crickets and jacks
