- Crazy Legs, extensive breakdown and - even more important - full build up.
It's been a long time coming, since the August 2013 impromptu recording of the Crazy Legs Basic Form.
( • Crazy Legs Basic Form )
One, if not the most characteristic move in freestyle rhythm skating, known by different names around the world, such as scissors, toe jammin and zig zag, but Crazy Legs being the most common.
Let's first state clearly, that this is our take on this intriguing move; our personal understanding of and experience with this pattern. There are many different versions to do and ways to learn Crazy Legs.
This is simply just one of them, coming from years of experience with coaching and training a wide range of people.
Key element is the very often neglected and/or underestimated `Intermediate Position`, which truly makes or breaks the pattern and flow of any Crazy Legs.
Concentrating on good form is really not about aesthetics; it's all about
A. Using full potential of a technique.
B. Avoid and prevent harm and injury in the short and long term.
This snippet includes:
Basic Ingredients.
Pattern of movement.
Keynotes.
Intermediate position.
Ladder of progression.
Merging motions.
Crazy variations.
Isolated drill.
Constructional riff.
Bonus exercise.
For the sake of simplicity and time limit, we have excluded a whole bunch of details and variation pointers. Sorry `bout that, but we hope this snippet will give you just enough to polish and improve your flow!
And remember, repetition is the mother of skill.
Also, check out the 2021 Crazy Legs in-depth snippet, which zooms in a how to imrpove your Crazy Legs faster and effectively!

Killer breakdown. So much to work on - keynotes, varialtions, excersizes etc - it's easily plenty enough for next decade or two, lol.
Thank u for sharing.
Yesterday I spent 4 hours of my day following this tutorial, this is the first time I tired crazy legs, I have to say that your way of teaching is TOP!!!! I am impress on how I am moving right now!!!! I actually wanna come to your school to learn with you, as the technique taught in here is the best I have seen so far, I would say the best out there, thank you for sharing your knowledge, I hope I can come take classes one day. YOur videos are very technical, straight to the point, and they work!
Hello from Mexico :)
Thank you for what must be the best tutorial out there on Crazy Legs. Breakdown, extra training, the mix and pure genius on wheels. Pure class
Man you're the baddest guy I've ever seen on roller skates.
This is great for the up and coming skater, I'm a ol school skater from the late 70's early 80's the disco and early rap hip-hop times. My skate name I was call was Crazy legs also for all the moves I could do on the fly going in and out on the roll with the music. In a tight spot on the floor 6 to 8 people in a crowd I was at my best. It's so great to see how many people are getting back into skating, I'm 57 years old now and I have kept myself in great shape and when I go to get out on the floor with the gray that's in my beard they look at me like yeah " right . But with the right ol school song on, like something from the Almighty Gap Band it's a different look they have Like" DAMN " 😯😯😯. And some have seen me from back in the Days when they were little kids there with their Moms. They come to me and say I are, we remember you, you " are Crazy Legs. Wow " can you show us how to do that and it's not a problem, you just have to feel it with the music and let go of the fear of falling. I was blessed to have never had a fall and broke anything because people would fall and you had to jump are be quick to no how to go around them without getting caught up. One of the moves I had with my partner named James Brown😁 ,he would bounce me up and down while I was doing a split like a yo yo and that's the move so many of them remember and the one called the Jelly legs. But once again it's so great to see all the young people getting back into skating and I hope it here to stay. ❤✌✊ the 80's Crazy Legs 👍
Thank you James for sharing your story. And coming from a OG like your funky badself, I do appreciate the acknowledgement you express for the stuff I put out. Because it is exactly meant for those looking for inspiration to lace up some 8's!
Hell yeah! I am 42, and during my teens I was always in the rink Friday and Saturday from 6 to Midnight! Roll Bouncing with my friends, trying to get the girls! I love seeing the kids bringing it back!
I watched you for 4 years trying to learn this" Crazy Stuff" Finally I got it.
Feeling kinda Dumb..Krazy. to see how "Easy" It is, and it took me so long..
You Changed my Life, "57 going on 27"
Muchos Gracias mi Amigo.

Thank you! Have fun!
Hey man, I've been watching your videos for the past few days, & you have officially put the Netherlands on the top of the "Swag" charts! No doubt!
Best video I've seen, " no talking, just skating" I love it!!!!!!!
I love how you've formatted this video to be so purely instructional and easy to follow. Thank you so much!! Great angles and I love the sound effects too. Adorable chime
10:33 yessss I love the roll bounce movie that’s what got me into skating when my dad showed me that movie when I was little!
Wow! This is by far the best tutorial on crazy legs! 👌😍 Thank you, you're awesome!
By far the BEST sk8 tutorials right here!!
No need to look any further!! I watch, and learn everyday!!! So detailed and amazing!
PERIOD
This was extremely helpful. I like how you broke it down into the smallest motion possible to start and showed the stances. 💯😎
This is the best breakdown I've seen on here. Thank you!
Finally a well explained tutorial, thank you so much!
Thank you for making these videos! 👌 Very instructive.
Only video that makes it easy to follow! Thank you!
This is hands down the best tutorial break down there is on CZcams!! Thank you so much!
The best training on the crazy legs I've ever seen, and I have seen a lot. Cold blooded smooth!
Out of all the videos I’ve watched I’ve progressed the most from this one. Thank you!!!!!!!
You are most welcome and I salute you for elevating yourself to higher plateaus!
So. Much. SWAG. Honestly B, this is my go-to lockdown video for the foreseeable. Thank you for all you do!
Finally a complete tutorial about crazy legs and its variations!
Also check out part 2 and enjoy! 👊🏼
Baby skaters: what people don't tell you about smooth skating.... so much abdominal work. Anything on your toes, heels, any kind of balance work requires ABS, not meaning you have to work outside of the rink, just meaning that when something feels difficult it's because you're using muscles you've never used, in a unique way that will require building those muscles. I didn't have any ab muscle when I started skating, but I can feel myself getting stronger every session. I was at the rink last night tryna see if I could do a whole song walking backwards (while skating backwards) and it's ALL lower abs and back. My back was cramping before I even got around the rink once since it's not used to doing a repetitive movement like that. Challenging yourself is the only way to improve.
oh wow such a great breakdown!! thank you so much
Way better than any other tutorial out here on CZcams

This is the best breakdown I've ever seen. I need to share this!
Thank you!
This was so easy to follow - thank you! 😃
Your videos randomly popped into my feed today. You're doing the stuff I wish I could do. I feel like it's going to take 30 years to learn all these moves. I'll be 85 at that point. The last 20 years I've been roller skating once a year on New Year's Eve on rental skates. Last month I bought my first pair of boot skates with hard wheels. I don't know if this old dog can learn new tricks but I keep trying. I don't know where you're located but I'm your new viewer from Ohio.
Great tutorial. I watched a 45 minute tutorial and didn’t learn as much as I learned from you in your basic tutorial and this one breaks it down even further. Your camera angles really the viewer see your skate actions. Thank you!! 😊😊😊 This is my quarantine skill to learn.
Meant to say your camera angles really allow the viewer to see your skate actions.
You learn so many fundamentals with basic crazy legs. You've stepped that up a lot with variations. Easily the best crazy legs tutorial on CZcams.
Thank you very much for your kindness!🙏
Amazing!Super, thanks 😘
Love your tutorial video. Thank you!
Great tutorial!

Thank you cause you go straight to the point, not much talk but technique indeed, greatly appreciated 🙏🏼
Wow, I really enjoyed that, that’s my first time seeing it demonstrated like that. I hve learned a lot from this video, Thx Much
Hello! Thank you for this Video - good explanation, easy to follow and good music.
This helped a lot I watched this back in 2020 and I'm loving crazy legs now. Hard work but fun gotta practice guys!
Wow this video blows my mind i think I must book mark this break down to learn thanks! SMOOVE

Oh man, you are on 🔥. Smooth, smooth and smooth. Wicked breakdown. If I learn morning else, I'm gonna learn this. Kudos to you brotha.
Thank you! Have a great practice! 🙏😉
This is an amazing tutorial! Thank you 🙂
Smooth as church music. I love how you break it down
I cannot believe how helpful this video is and you didn't even have to speak. 😂
Awesome! The sequel is spoken, so hopefully you will enjoy that as well! 👊🏽
BEST TUTORIAL HANDS DOWN!! can’t wait to try tomorrow!!
Have fun and make it funky! Thank you🙏
In honor of you! I sure will!
If you not the coldest thing on 8 wheels sir🔥🔥😎
awesome video
Great tutorial! I've actually been working on it for several months off and on; having had multiple injuries and surgery on my right knee has made it much slower, but I'm still working on my form. I also have some femoral anteversion (read pigeon toed) since I was a child that has made certain things almost impossible for me skating, but I'm still pt-ing myself through. I don't know if it's my deficits or if I just haven't built my lower leg muscles enough, but I'm still really slow at this one and lacking flow. It's amazing how fluid and effortless you make it look... I'll keep working.
I'm going to try this when I get home !
Nah way dude! Lemme tell u what! This video left such a good visual impression that I got this the first try after putting my skates on! Whaaaaaat! Thank u so much!
Awesome!

Thank you BrothaMan for those awesome words, much appreciated!
Some people are just born to skate, you sir are at that level. So fluid in your movement, very subtle moves and with a cracking set of roller skates. Could watch you skate for hours but I swing for the ladies only lol. Sending a high 5 from Scotland.
High five back right at ya!🙏😉
Back in the day (70's) this was the $#!+!....I can't do any of this now...lol....
This guy is smooth with good instruction.
Amazing

I been skating streets since a teen thinking I was good, then I tried this indoor dance malarkey! WTH😳 it’s like learning to skate all over again. Just in my man cave trying the above and boy, sweat! Oh yes brain is 😓 well presented and broken down. Determined to get this 👊🏾

Just discovering your Crazy Legs stuff :D Love your approach with all the quotes/presentation of tricks! very well done! bought me some kind of cheap quad skates, with hi top sneakers shoes. A beginner story haha I already feel like my front break pads are too close from the ground. My wheels are not round shaped like yours or some others I see on cool videos.
