DVD/Top Rock Contradiction - 05-22-2004, 10:42 AM

During the Top rock intro, by BBoy Speed(legs?) He says when you step forward, to put your should into it, and not to keep your shoulders both facing forward, cuz its not the Bboy style. Well later on i see BreakEasy hanging his shoulder back like Speedy said not to. Then i go back to the SAME intro clip with speedy, and i notice when he shows what its suppposed to look like, he leaves his shoulderhanging back also? He shows us one "Correct" way to do it, but he doesnt it another, the way he told us not to. Which way is it, and why did he tell us that if its not true?

And.. i know i posted this too on the TopRock forum, i posted it here because you guys chat more, and i can get a reply faster -_- So dont flame me cuz i did that.

Toprock IS a bboy's style .. so it shouldn't matter how it's done; everyone does it their own way ..

there is no right or wrong way to do it..as long as you dance..it's your dance..do what feels right




- You gotta have style or we ain't got a conversation -

Okay but if thats true, why would he, put something on a video, that would be viewed by what a couple hundred thousand, maybe a million.. and say its not the way to do something, then do it?

if you watch someone do something..and they show you the steps..and then you try and do it..you're not really dancing..you're trying to do a move..which defeats the purpose of having your own style..and your own dance

rocking is your own thing..it's original..it's yours..trying to do it the way someone else does it makes no sense

I think you misread what he was trying to say. I don't think he was talking about how droopy your shoulders but, but to twist your hips so one should if infront of another.
