How long did it take you to learn these moves? (In parenthesis i put how long it took me)
Swipes- (I could sort of on the first day, but it took three days to get it clean) Windmill-(6 months for me, but off and on practice, I prolly spent just 1 month if I only added up the days I spent on windmill) Flare- (work in progress, I can do freezes at each of the points that resemble a flare, but I can't do a complete rotation) 1990- (work in progress, I can get half a rotation) Halo-(not attempted) Air-Flares- (yeah right, not yet) I just wanted to know how long it took typical bboys to learn these tough moves. -peace |

swipes- had baby ones the first day. one legged ones within a few days and variations within a week or two. not to mention i had them both ways.
windmill- a month or two of off and on practice got me some mills. sorta sloppy until i actually tried cleaning them up. dont care for mills. flare- year and a half OFFFFF and on training. 90s- hmmmm. i think i got like .75 of a rotation in like a yr LOL....i still havnt done more than 2/3 halo- ive just recently started these. but havnt actually trained them air track- now these i have practiced like once every other month haaha. just recently got serious about them. ive done track to flare a few times. |

about ah couple months for an airflair but its alot harder when you try doing 2 or more that takes an extra couple months ,it takes ah couple months to get a rotation or 2 on a 90,and ah couple months for a flair, and it took me about 3months to do baby mills. this info is for your average bboy with average skill level already.ive been breakin for 4 years now so i kinda forgot how long it actually took to learn these things for a newbie

swipes - a day or 2
windmills - 6 months 4 completely clean 1s. and thats mills from standing 1990s - i just mess around with that but i cant completely do it flares - i was forced 2 practiced them 4 an upcoming battle. iv been at it 4 about a week and can do a full rotation more or less. halos - havnt seriously practiced them airflares - u CAN get 1 in about 1 week. but u gotta practice it religiously. and u have 2 have a good base 4 it. but if u want continuous 1s ur looking at about a year of practice. |

swipes - a few days to get the gist of it. not that hard, but i dont care for swipes
windmill - took like 1 year and some to get it -_- flare - half a year around for 1 full rotation 1990 - a couple months and i usually cant even do 1 full rotation. sometimes half, sometimes 3/4's halos - n/a airflares - n/a |
