Profo Won from FLOOR GANGZ worldwide explains the three major footwork styles in bboying Text transcribe: koreanroc.com/?p=1405 filmed at OUTBREAK 7 KBE Daniel STRIFE.TV
@enzymesX Correct! You cannot learn this stuff from just anyone. Floor Gangz learned it by talking with our bboy pioneers and gaining knowledge. We are lucky the pioneers of our dance are still alive. Always travel to learn from others, and don't stay complacent. Each one, teach one.
The moment he said "Canada" and "threads" I instantly thought of Megas. This was a really fantastic video. Even though the dance is still relatively young, it's still important to try to record and account for the history, so I'm glad Strive.tv took the time to make this. Thanks to Strife.tv and thanks to Profo!
Guidance yo!! Read the article a long time ago, happy to see it reiterated into video form. Big ups to Profo, and thanks for shouting out Gizmo, a Canadian legend.
How to smoke Profo Won: Ask him to try and say perspectives. LOL. On a serious note though, most eye opening vid I've seen in a while. It was interesting to think about these styles and how they apply to myself and other bboys in my scene to see where peoples styles tended to lie. Much respect.
i also expected something like a move or two in footwork, but i got much more, i got free knowledge and inspiration, mad RESPECT for profo won and strife tv for uploading :D
as a hungry student of the game this is exactly what i needed! I would be much more prone to watching bboy vids if they contained educational material like this! thanks strife!
yo big thanks to strife and homie from floor gangz, my apologies i dont know you, but big thanks for droppin the knowledge and lettin the new Bboys grow.
As a bboy i would say that, when i started breakin' i just wanted to you know.. Break! But i became more interested in bboying though. I wanted to learn about history. Its very important to me. Thanks dude! I will spread this history to my friends and keep bboying living on
@ThePayDayRay word up, i understand... perhaps the level is not as distinguishable as other styles to make it known and named as a japanese style.. but yah good to know..
@Statykbboy Yes, because floorgangz is very close friends with mighty zulu kingz. If I'm not mistaken mzk has many oldschool/newgeneration bboys. Ness also shares his knowledge and experience with his crew.
@MrRyushinn how much more do you need in terms of city exposure? tdot is always known internationally...of course theres tons of dope crews out in tdot now, mind you it was different before when btx snc bbc etc when they were reppin hard, and different challenges to make themselves known. international battle and events back then are more prestige than it is presently. Now theres so many events that its a different challenge for newer kats to get themselves known...
@strifetv I remember zeshen wrote something before saying learn one move you will have one way to move. learn one concept and you will have different ways to move or something like that
@Statykbboy Profo volunteered to share the knowledge he knows in his point of view. He does make perfect sense of what he is trying to show/explain. I'm guessing you're one of those types that must have everything perfect. Respect Profo for his knowledge if what he is saying doesn't suite you then watch another video. Besides, you understood exactly what he meant about the different styles "note, they did show different bboys you can check out that had that style". C'mon man no reason to hate.
@UAEbboy from what i hear, a lot of people don't approve too much of leg work in the traditional sense of footwork. lot of people will consider it footwork but since it isn't really composed of "steps" and more of sweeps and such, it won't count.
@robnasty i aint hating on him at all. i actually love and respect the fact that Profo broke it down to how much he knows..he def did his research.. i basically commented the fact on someone says "he's from so so crew im sure he knows what hes talkin about" guess what go ask yourself is that the right way to base a knowledge just because he from this and that crew..ofcourse not! I have no doubt Profo did his research!!! Big ups to Profo..
