Is bboying limited

Is bboying limited because it seems like once you master all the big power moves,not saying that i hav but its almost as if bboying reaches a limit where u cant get any better.

can 1 of the big guys plz giv me an answer

TjisOrignalru · 07-26-2005, 06:41 PM

not really,...you start doing your own variations of moves,footwork,and toprock.I try to think of bboying as a RPG(ROLE PLAYING GAME) try to use different combos and styles to win battles.

hahahahaha your joking right, once you got some power moves aiint meen shit, can you even toprock or even ride the beat? Got any of your own style?

Swiper · 08-02-2005, 06:07 AM

haha off course its not limited, if it was, then we would all be doin the same shit over and over since the 80s.

theres always new tricks, new powermoves, new stylecats bringing it always new stuff to learn and there will always be tricks to invent

pacerok stfu, honestly bro, just because you consider yourself pro, doesn't mean you can berate others and laugh at them cause they asked a legitimate question (that somehow you consider to be stupid?)

Power is certainly an element of bboying, but yeah once you mastered all the moves that OTHERS can teach you, you start to make your own variations and changes to moves.

Take pro bboys for example, most of their stuff is just personal variations of moves they've learnt or personal combos of what they've decided looks best. In some cases like Benji or Junior you can even create personal blow up moves.

BBoying is only limited by how much creativity you have.

If you feel like you've learnt everything you can work on polishing moves that you're not comfortable with fully, or (following on from the one legit point pacerok made) you can customise and work on your toprock, which is arguably the only/most original of a bboys repetoire.

If you don't wanna do either, why not learn to pop and lock if you don't already?

But of course, that assumes that you know everything, which you said you don't....so yeah

Like most things, bboying is only limited by the persons attitude.

first of all.....your tops and footwork are never limited, therefore you can't reach a point where it can't get better

if you can do EVERY power move in the book, then its time for you to create your own book of new powermoves

man youre talkin as if bboyin is only power moves..........................

JustDooIt · 08-02-2005, 02:40 PM

well, i suppose it is limited since ur body can only contour so many ways, but the thing about learning stuff means u open new windows that u couldn't open before. so u finally learned a freeze? spin it. trust me, nobody is ever going to reach a limit besides old age.

bboy_diesel · 08-02-2005, 08:00 PM

there are obviously no limits to style....

and even with power... i dont think anyone has ever felt like they have run out of things to learn

Vice President · 08-02-2005, 08:09 PM

you can only limit yourself. but you can't limit bboying.

pacerok · 08-02-2005, 10:43 PM

WTF firstly i aiint a pro, no where close, and obviously power is a part of b-boying, get off your own dick! (bboyjz)

Sorry if my post came out like i was the dissing the dude, was def not intentional, but yeh "you can only limit yourself. but you can't limit bboying" thats the ticket right there.
