when you spin try to keep your legs away from you. spin your body first then your legs in the air. practice will surely make you get it right. keep trying and good luck!

my legs go straight when im doing em.

Busta BBoy · 12-27-2003, 05:11 PM

do u have to put ur body straight when u lift ur self?

MuffinJuice · 12-27-2003, 05:50 PM

its not a good idea to stay a board (totally stiff) when u do any move. getting into should be all comfort, when your in the air doing a rotation, i arch my back almost, trying to hump the sky. when your legs are straight as u spin, it makes it look like your moving a ton more than you really are. also easier to balance. your body can be however you feel works the best. try it all out. try flexing your abs, arching your back, or staying stiff, see what works for you and tell us about it.

so it's okay for ur body to bend a little bit.

MuffinJuice · 12-27-2003, 11:31 PM

yeah.

not pickin on you,
but this is YOUR DANCE, guys. it doesnt matter whether you practice headspins with your feet spread or not, if it works both ways. it doesnt matter if you curl up for whater, if it looks the way you want it, and its easy for you, do it.

hey guys,
ive got stabed mills down pretty good and have only just started to learn swipes. my question is, what way do you guys swipe in comparison with windmills?
what direction for swipes is the best to learn for combos?
