i seriously need help here peeps!!!!!!
ok...here's the deal.....when i started breakin...i learned how to toprock from a vid......i tot i got it preety well and i got some of ma style into it as well.......
then one day one of my frens saw me toprocking...then he said...that's not right bud....ur top rock in supposed to be in circles and not in shape of v............toprock is used to start a circle around u so ur legs should go in da shape of a circle......
but the vid is learn from taught me tt way and it said nuthin about goin in shape of circles......when i tried it in a circle...it felt weird and i look stupid cuz i was not used to doin it tt way.......
am i doin it right??? in a v shape or is my fren right??????
i hav seem some clips where ppl toprock in circles and some toprocking the way i do??????
To say the truth most people like the pros don't care how you toprock as long as you get in the circle. so do it how everi do it how ever. but there is one thing tho, some people like your friend might not like your style and others will like it...

1stly tell your friend his an idiot
2ndly tell yourself there is no right or wrong toprock
everyone is different. a toprock is just a dance on ur feet. mainly used as an intro to your set.. in my opinion, yes u do need toprock to bust but there are powerheads that go straight in to power
what u need is experience. you will soon realize that toprock is ur own little unique style
This one time...this hot chick rings me up and says to me in a horny voice, ''Oh baby come over now, no ones home''.... So I went over to her house and no one was home..
I agree with Trainer here. Toprock doesnt have to be in the shape of a V or a circle. I toprock in circles sometimes... sometimes I toprock forward and backwards too. Its your style. If u can form a circle or get people to woo u wen ur toprockin then its fine.
See my av? That's me.
If you don't push yourself, you won't get anywhere.
Breaking can be whatever you want it to be. If you want it
to be the original, structured dance that it was 20 years ago,
then it can be that for you. If you want it to be your own
limitless form of expression, it can be that for you.
The world will never agree on what exactly Breaking is...
and if the world ever does agree, then I guess I won't be Breaking anymore.

yeah I strongly agree with Trainer its your own style and you should do it your way..forget your friend he probably does it a different way too so have fun with your own style
The point of uprockin in circles -

The whole point of uprockin in a circle is to clear the floor at a packed club. When u r out in the open u can do it however u want to, but go in circles to clear a circle at the club.

good poiint but its toprocking and if you're just jokin around with your friends you dont have to do it in a circle
uprocking and toprocking are very different. another question to get your brains thinkin> say you jump into an already made circle should you toprock then?
Toprocking isn't for making room to bust. That is such bullshit, I think it was said in Basic Moves Video, I wouldn't beleive pretty much anything they say in that video.
you people seriously need to get your info from other sources instead of the net, yall talk like yall dont even really break. What do all u peeps do, cyber break??
anyways i think you should toprock before goin into any moves cause well it looks like you a gymnast if you jus bustin straight into powers from standin...
if your in a crowd get your friends to push em off a lil and motion with your hands to get out the way while your dancing you dont gotta do it in circles with your legs cause most likely thats gonna end you up kickin somebody and a fight breakin out.

ahaha word i laughed when sum1 wrote that
if u wanted to make room to bust u simply say ''hey ladies and gentleman, please step aside while i breakdance''
u dont dance around in circles and or skip around to shift ppl hehe that would be funny tho
