First thx to the Toprock guide, a very nice one.

Than these are 2 mine videos of toprock, the first i tried to learn the basics in the damn good guide, i tried it without music, i added music with a common videoediting program.

the second video is with realtime music .p, i tried an improvisation, i mixed up the basics and followed the music, and i can say with music my toprock come out automatically lol, is cool, and is more "easy" i mean i dont know .. it come out and i dont know why.

Not bad dude. Who is the little kid yelling in the background?

The first part of the second video looks exactly like the way Mike Garcia teaches it though. Kinda choppy and bouncy. Not the best example to follow. The next part when you switch it up looks better though. You have the emphasis on the step out part. Emphasis helps to add style, which is good.

You need to do something with your arms too. On your first vid you had em moving, but you were stuck on the open closed. Thats ok once or twice, but you need to mix it up a bit. Think forward, backward, side, down. They don't have to be symetrical either.

Also, it does get repetitive. Learn new steps to mix it up, come up with your own stuff, let the music move you. There are plenty of vids on this forum, and if you check out bboyworld there is a really good toprock video by Bionic Rock Force.

Check the link, but you will have to register on bboyworld.com first. It's a big vid, and will take a while if you dont have broadband, but it's worth it. The last dude is my fav.

It looks good, just keep practicing. And remember, you don't have to follow a set form or patter. Toprock is about YOUR style. Watching vids is just for inspiration.

Good luck.

The little kid is my little brother, he was yelling "the time is ending!" he was using the digital camera, and he have 4 years

Anyway thx for the advice and for the replies, i keep practicing adding arms movements too and i download that video

peace all!

If you ask me... it's really repetitive. Switch it up a bit.

But for a basic top rock, it's not bad at all.
