This was BEFORE you were popular too I’m currently watching both of you to learn the windmill and I just wanna say that you helped me learn the backflip and cork Sooooo THANKS
This is the best mill tutorial I have found anywhere on the net. I have been bboying for 10 years but have never fully attacked the windmill. My goal is to have nice, smooth continuous mills by the end of the month. Thanks for your help!
FalCrow Production Like you say I think this is actually a way better method of learning windmills than the the baby freeze method. Not only do you get better form out of it I feel, but it better prepares you for more advanced windmills. Thank you for this great tutorial!
you're welcome :) with the head always on the ground the windmill is more flowing, the head cant hurt or beat the floor and the pelvis is a little bit higher, this is very helpfull for windmill combos or windmill variations :)
Thanks for the wishes! the crew came out in second place. Though it was a small price but who cares, we won something! xD I did practice a lot and I was able to get 4 windmills and then some footwork around it. It was nice for a guy that has been breakin' for around 7 months. But I had to leave the crew cause I'm moving to a different school and we can't really dance anymore together. but hey! Thanks a lot man! :)
I believe this is the best windmill tutorial I have ever seen. Really interesting approach for learning the windmills, I like it a lot. But I personally believe that it's better when going into the windmill from standing position to be as low as possible, because that directs your momentum more into the rotation. Some people get almost into handstand and it kills their momentum. Anyway, keep up the good work :) Peace!
4:18 exactly my mistake! didn't find any answer for this except "try to touch the ground with your shoulder a bit earlier" ..... now by kicking up it feels and looks much better and i can keep the momentum of the beginning! thanks a lot =)
not yet.. I spent some time trying to learn from other tuts, but most of them don't show the same tips you do. I'm gonna try.. thks for support, man! if I have more doubts, I ask you again!
I am practising to airflare ( i learned airflare from your Tutorial). but i also need to fix my windmill that head touching the floor. I really enjoy starting with headstand that will useful to improve my combo. I found many video to refer, whatever this is the best of them. Thanks so much!
hey! to roll your head always on the floor you need to be high with your hips, so u will land only on the upper part of your back and it will be easier to put your head on the floor.. also kick hard with your legs when u are about to go on your back.. it will help to land higher... I also suggest u to practice it slow at the beginning, just to understand the movement, then start to practice it fast :) ...if u will practice the headstand to headstand windmill it will be easier btw :)
Awesome tutorial man! I never thought about doing it from headstand and side freeze positions.. even though i cant pop up to headstands yet, restabbing into the side freeze helped my mills a lot just the first time i tried doing it.
kick is the most important thing :) if u dont kick is very hard to do the windmill fist times... then when u learn how to kick u can focus on keep your legs tense and straight
Hey! you should push harder your arm, kinda like a side freeze to elbow freeze..and kick harder your legs to get more rotation.. if u have a good boost, u will not hurt or shot :)
Hey! I learn windmill in this way 1st and Im not the only one, and I think its the best way! and maybe even easier :) (starting by rollback) thanks for your opinion btw
@weirdboypro u have to kick hard with your legs, because if u don't kick u lose your momentum and the form will be low, if u kick high ur body will be high and your head on the floor :)
good bro! to go from windmill to headstand u have to try that rollback to headstand first, then try to add rotation to your rollback until it becomes kinda like a backspin.. then u can try it to windmill :)
@BboyZeus95 hey! ...when you do windmill you go from your back to the direction of your left shoulder if you are clockwise... so u have to learn roll back to headstand to the left side... rollback to elbow or to other freezes is different :)
@palmcron mmm before to practice headstand to side freeze u should learn side freeze very well... just practice queda de rins with your head on the floor and after try to open your legs as you can... u could also try baby freeze and other freezes to get more confidence with the movements :)
@iPSLee heyo!! before to practice head-back-head make sure u can do the steps from 2:05 to 2:23 ...u have to kick your legs like an hopped backspin... if u learn windmill with head babymills will come easier... but u can also practice it without using ur head : )
just few days bro :) but I already had all the basic! anyway this is a very easy move, you dont need months or years to learn it.. if your basics are already good u can learn it in few days, if not, maybe in some weeks.. (I suggest to practice a lot the basics before to try the windmill)
thanks a lot bro! :)) mmm to get fast windmills is only about practice and practice.. try to control the speed of your windmills, like try to do them very slow, then normal speed, then even faster.. this is a good exercise to get more control/momentum and to increase the speed :)
Awesome video the best form of a windmill I've ever seen it looks sick. But i'm having trouble with staying off my lower back and i spin counter clockwise my shoulder countinues to hurt bad after i practice I also have trouble with the collapse and kick...
you are welcome bro :) I suggest u to learn each move step by step, never skip something, because if u skip your progres will be much slower because u can get stuck easily, if u learn step by step u will improve faster :)
@MegaCool180 your windmill is not bad, try to kick faster with your legs and keep your legs as open as you can... for the flare u need to practice it a lot... is hard to improve it in just few attempts, u need practice practice practice practice practice practice practice and time :) don't worry!
@iPSLee yes i'm already making a babymill tutorial, but now i'm stuck with it because i'm too busy with other videos and some projects :S ...but i'll try to upload it asap!! yes it's good if u practice both with and without head :)
ciao :) perché è più pratico da collegare ad altre powermoves ed è anche più bello da vedere, pulito e corretto :) ..se si usa il freeze classico si è costretti a stare in una posizione più bassa ed è più difficile tenere la testa appoggiata tutto il tempo
Yo! sure its possible to do it without using the head, but I dont reccomend this way because it will be harder to transition with other moves. to get higher u have to push your hips as high as you can and also kick your legs very high!
hey! :) windmill can be without your head on the floor but also with. Headmill is with the head on the floor :) anyway, I dont suggest to learn windmill without using the head, is a useless move since u can learn it by using the head, and its easier, nicer and better for combos :)
Hey omg .. Thnx I can do 2 good windmills connecting them ... I think I did this wrong because I didnt read the part where you said " Pop " when you re stab ... BUT THNX ALOT DUDE THIS HELPED A LOT :DDDDD
hey! mmm maybe u should try it on both sides.. and after some days/weeks of practicing windmills and freezes on both sides u should decide which side is better for you...
I think headstand way is the best :) also in your case, to learn how to keep your head on the ground, the best way to train it is headstand to headstand :)
are u sure to master all the basics I show in this tutorial.. to learn how to "collapse" u should practice basic tricks a lot! and also the side freeze by swinging your legs :)
@Fenririon I think is about the rotation of your legs... but i'm not sure, i know some guys doing the windmill moving around but i dunno why xD ...but i think is still nice :)
@bboyStuntZ Oh yes i know, but now is different. now there are so many moves and so many ways and tecniques to do just 1 single move. if u want to do powermoves combos you need the "headmill" and i know a lot of people who learn headmill and not the windmill wothout head.is almost the same thing. it's like the difference between airtracks and airflare. if all the single variations needs one name we have like 100000 names of different moves.btw thanks for the infos and sorry for my bad english xD
This video was awesome thank you been trying to learn this for sometime. You said it's possible to do it without your head touching the ground... how is that? You should do a video of that too. Again great video thank you!!!
It means Step by Step. Anyway your tutorials are the best man thank you , btw how long does it "Generally" take to learn the windmill or should i say master it like yourself ???
hey! did you try to start with a rollback? like i explain in this tutorial? if u didnt u should try :) I think is a good alternative way to learn it and it works better than normal tecnique :)
