  • Reacting to my bboy powermove, top rock, and footwork progression. From 2008 - 2013 I progressed with a few solid moves, but some things just always looked gumpy...

    Pigmie out here giving you the recipe for success and some of yall still sleepin: stay humble, put in the time, look at the big picture, and FOCUS. I see a lot of cats who want to be successful talk about "rise & grind," this that the other thing, but they just talk. They don't live it. They don't do the work behind the scenes. They want to be successful in terms of "I want everybody to think I'm fly" and that's the fakest, most empty kind of shit you can aspire to achieve.
    Most folks would delete their old footage, cut a highlight reel of their best moments, and pretend they were always this good, but Pigmie makes himself better, faster, stronger, cleaner because he LEARNS from those mistakes, and he gives it away for free. Some of you asking for the "easiest way to learn _______" and you watch a video of Pigmie spending hours or days or weeks or months drilling again and again and again until he nails something. You're watching him do it looking for "the lesson" and you're missing THE LESSON.

      Honestly, I'm a beginner trying to bboy, but I can definitely verify that this is extremely true. I asked my brothers for ways that I might get things faster. In the end, it took hard work. Nothing else. Maybe a few, "Hey don't do that, the form is wrong" here and there, but hard work has, and will, pave the way for me

  • @jonathanmanning5358

    You have come along way on your journey and have filmed your progression to the professional your are today I think you deserve all the prays you get you didn't get involved in drugs or the gang lifestyle many fall victim to which shows the type of focus you had which has to be applauded you are a great role model for the younger generation and hope it may long continue into the future peace and love to you Lucas from the UK🇬🇧👍👍👍

Kinda got a Hong 10 top rock going. Honestly your a power move guy. Should do more of a power move top rock so your opponent gets intimidated(Kind of like charging up to go Super Saiyan hehe). Then add some of your current top rock to mix it up here in there. Then you'll look dope. Your dad is sweet! Keep it up.

    shit man i remember watching your how to head spin video when i was extra young dreaming to break dance. i always felt like i was too weak, totally forgot about it eventually. years later i became obsessed with music instrumentals and began playing guitar, making music videos that go with music, later i started working out. Recently something got me back into bboy and i realize i have the strength and feel for music to do it. then i see this video and im like "Wait is that that guy?"...its like im back at square one but im ready this time. wish me luck!

    On your twisting on trampoline, if you wait and go up before you twist you can trip full for sure. On your Cody’s, land farther back on the trampoline and keep your chest up. On your kabooms, go near the back of the trampoline close to the springs and land flatter.

    Tip for your 1 handed air flair, check the momentum. Less momentum, more shoulder strength. You got to deep power it, and not at all rely on speed of your looping legs to get you into the catch on the landing. You basically want to do the air flair, as slowly as possible. Hand hops in place would help tremendously.
