Gregor Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 The best flairs I've seen from bboy. He is bending lower leg when going back and at the rear side he is a litlle piked, but still the best I've seen from a bboy.Look the diffrence in legs and body extension:qSdod8l5UGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phken4343 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I wish I could have his flexibility right now. Still trying to achieve that flexibility...( :/ ) but I'm getting closer everyday.I'm also working windmills right now to understand the motion of the flare. It's getting better, but I really hate the pain when I bump my pelvis to the floor. I do it less frequently now, but anyone have any advice?(I'm a gymnast, and not a b-boy, btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 For Thomas Flair? Work your spindle till you can do it GOOD. A flair goes from straddle to front split to straddle to front split. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blairbob Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Most breakers find circles more difficult than flairs. In gymnastics, you learn the hard way first otherwise the circle will just be garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A flair goes from straddle to front split to straddle to front split.I tried the spindle circles today, and I'm starting to understand the movement. Soo...I do the Straddle only in the back while I do the splits during the first 3/4ths of the circles, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blairbob Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 For now, just think of: from seal support (position 1): straddle side supports: split rear support (position 3) straddle get the idea? It is important to not forget in keeping your legs to circle as you attempt the spindle and aggressive counterturn and hand placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
