Can Blowup/balance Beat Style? - 10-17-2007, 12:53 AM
I got a friend that i just recently battled with. He/She (not saying the gender) has good balance and blowup. My friend whos been breaking longer than me says that she toasted me in that battle. He/She just started practicing like for a few weeks. I've been practicing for more than a 2 months. But the point is, can balance and blowup beat style?

What do you mean style? Everyone has style.




My process: accomplish through perseverance/
Every man's not my brother regardless of appearance/
Apprehension clouds the spirit/
Tension prepares us for ascension/
And at his best is when he breaks conventions/
A convenient covenant coveted for conception/

You Were too Tired to Fight, Cuz you were breakin' and Lockin' all night. You were tryin' too hard to learn to windmill, to rob and steal.

dude im 100% sure at 2 months you aint got style. whats with all the he/she shit just say the sex, but you fucked up and accidentally wrote she here >>"says that she toasted me in that battle" which explains why you didnt want to define the sex of the one who beat you, insecure!!!. You GOt BEATZED by A giRL OMG!!!!

Yeah i hate when ppl say they have style if they got fundamentals, because i worked for 2 years on style then some guy comes up and says >>>>>"can style beat power i been breaking fer 2 months."--- how do you know you recognizable style?-- , BEcause my 3 STEP PWNS yaaaaA!

lol i'm guessing this is another question of freezes vs toprock and footwork. it's not about what you're doing as much as how you're doing it. you may be dancing and shit, but are you dope? after 2 months, probably not.

Screw constraints on the dance. It's all bboying, assuming you make it look dope, and I've always found the continual compartmentalisation of what should be a contiguous dance pretty wack.

Just 'cuz you can out-toprock, or out-balance, or out-power someone doesn't mean you can out-bboy them overall. But if everything comes together in a neat little package, I'd say you stand a winning chance.

Nooooooooooooo of course noooottt because style ownz powerrr like ohmygoddd your friend is so stupiiiiid...


Dude, what the heck? You're either dope, or you're wack. If this 'style' would always beat freezes, no one would do freezes and everyone would have good toprock and footwork.

I understand. I thought my style was sikk at 2 months too. Thing is, mines wasn't, and yours isn't. I'm coming up to 6 months and I'm just NOW starting to understand what style even means. If you had to group me as power or style head I'd probably say I'm aiming to become a stylehead. But dude... a blowup at a few weeks practice = handglide, baby freeze, chair freeze?
2 months style = Half a 3 step to a 4 step to CC's? I think you should both practice a while without worrying about style, power, freezes, blowups, burns, etc. Just worry about securing your foundation and developing more of an understanding for bboying and hip-hop overall.

it all depends, how good are her blowups and how good is your style. if you can rock a beat then ur set. but if she can hop to the beat, then im not sure bro. and if you want judges dont have biased ones cause she's a girl
