I know we meme about forms and stances and such but I was really looking forward to this video and it didn’t disappoint. The toe vs heels vs straight vs slanted animations really helped to visualize the differences. But yeah your last point was the most important. Don’t injure yourself, I learned that lesson the hard way already.
Heel form for life. I can play on badly maintained undersensitive DDR pads at tournaments without worrying about pad misses and StepMania doesn't turn a pad modding game instead of a dancing game.
Great video! So true about avoiding injury. There’s nothing more frustrating than getting some sort of tendinitis and not being able to play for months.
13:32 Hey Dom, when you injured your tendon- did you just wait it out, or did you actually have it checked? How long did it take to recover? Is it FULLY okay now, or is the pain like, lingering? I recalled this part of the video cause I experienced the same thing recently lol. I seem to be okay now- but I definitely start to feel it after 2 hours of play and I'm not sure if it'll ever get back to the way it was before. Thanks to that I'm strictly straight form though, which is what I had naturally. Curious to know about your experiences with it
I used to play with no bar religiously, not stamina but loved stuff like Healing Vision angelic mix and Era nostalmix. Fast forward 20 years and I'm working on getting back into it even though I have balance and spasticity issues now. The technical talk about stance and injury was great. I thought I was the only person who thought about things like dorsiflexion 😆

I love "Dom"umentaries
The 3 styles: DDR, anime and injury

Ok Boomer moment

especially during stamina season!
Good video as alway. Your videos really help me understanding stamina players.
Dude u always make such killer videos, even for the people who already know so much about the game and stamina!
straight form best form i dont make the rules
we need to rebrand straight form like what "toes out" did with "based". straight == "shrigma grindset" form?
I should add, a friend of mine has shown me someone who plays stamina on their toes.
Idk what form that is but it is nuts to witness
Iconic shirt
Very helpful. I find myself struggling with breaking into 12 stamina and never considered my foot form
Great explanation about forms Dom.
Thanks man. In hindsight I should have talked about "form fixers", i totally forgot about the Tupperware strat
@@domitg Yeah, but it could be good for another video if you ever do that, feel free to ask my thoughts about it.
Very good video, I always wondered how far off my foot style was compared to others. Thanks for the really good video!
Nice to see pkgam got in such form! he plays DDR home mixes in base form sometimes iirc
Literally yesterday I searched for a video regarding form and found nothing.
ok, now i understand my foot pain XD
my driving teacher a few lessons before the exam: 11:54
Amazing vídeo, thanks for sharing 👥

Cool story, Kazubaru.
based video
based form = gay form = best form
Kind of in love with being the poster child for exploded form 😍
5:14 least monodirectional delta patterns
Whenever I try heels out it feels like every joint from my hip down will dislocate. Idk how you guys do it.
Cult content. Thanks Dom, the community loves you.
with all due respect i do not think ippo was wiggling his feet
If i ever get to play itg i hope to god im not heels out lmao
You said to like and subscribe in your stream so i did the opposite! Good video! - Danger Otter out!
Also I think I prefer non square but I own an SMX sadly so that's why I like heels in (also bc small feet)
OMG I MADE IT INTO A DOM ITG VIDEO DATS ME 9:47 IMA TELL THE ENTIRE WORLD
Lil B the based God is based
Heels out degen
Is 45ish degree heel-toeing for stamina a no no? I guess some patterns become really hard and you risk triggering the pad.
Based form? Based forms what?
I'm nowhere near close to stamina play but I am working on minimizing my movement, and watching how I play holy shit I stand like a fucking duck.
duck stance letsgooo
Do people consider based form passes as impressive as straight form? As the former is less stamina intensive
Dude has a don't tread on me sign I'm cringeing
makes sense
So how do you do crossovers?
