I hope you guys are ready for this move, because this move is advanced. Alright, it’s called the UFO. Why is it called the UFO? Because it’s out of this world. Only a select few can do this. Believe me. And I’m one of them.

But, you’re here with me today and I’m going to help you guys achieve this difficult move. It’s a little difficult, but I’m going to give you some pointers on how to do it. And you have to keep doing it. Seriously. You have to keep doing it. It took me a while, but the day I got it, I went from doing one, to doing like twenty. I’m telling you. So listen up, I know what I’m saying. Alright, so check it out. You have to get this strong. This whole thing right here, really strong for it.

So the first thing we’re going to do, we’re going to get down low. We’re going to get on our knees, and we’re going to hold ourselves with our palms. So here we go. This is just a little workout to get the strength to building this up. Here, you’re going to try to lift, and just do your best to hold yourself. Here, you’re going to hold yourself as much as you can. It’s pretty difficult, but you also want to work on the stretch.

For this, basically you want to create a 90 degree angle with your knees. You’re going to hold that like that. Stretch like that and try to get your hips down to the ground. Keep your chest up. It’s a good stretch for this, trust me. Then your left hand is going to touch your right knee. It’s another stretch for the other side.

Now, the movement to it, this is the hard part. From my experience, it’s about momentum. So once you get the gist of it, it’s like a momentum. That’s how I do it. So here, we’re going through here. Centered. Your knees are here, you’re centered, and you’re going to go around, like that, with your hand. You’re going to go around your hand. As soon as you go around, you’re placing your other hand down. So as soon as I go around, boom, I place it down. But see the position I put myself in? I put myself in that position right away. Once you catch yourself, with the momentum, you’ll be able to carry yourself around. Let’s try it. Try it with me. So check it out.

One, go around, boom. So that’s the first one. It’s important your hands are close to each other. There is a lot of stuff to do for this move, I know. Trust me. So you’re going to play it over and over again. Your hands have to be like this, once you go to your left, go to your right. Left. Right. Left. Right.

And that’s a UFO.

Welcome to how to do a reverse hand glide. This move right here, my father created the move. Hence the name glide. Hence my name, Kid Glide. So, a little history about myself.

Check it out. It’s a simple thing. If you want to, use a glove. Right now I’m going to use my Adidas jacket. Put my sleeve down. Basically, we’re going to start from a table top position, alright, what we call pilot. And basically, from there, remember, with the hand glide we were tapping right by our head. Not tapping, but we were like pushing the floor. Instead, we’re going to bring it down to our hips.

We’re here. Instead of going up here, we’re going to stay down here. We’re going to tap this way. So, here we go. We’re going to hold ourselves, tap, tap, tap, tap, alright, like that. Go faster, faster, faster, faster. Let go. That’s reverese hand glide.

My number one tip is to make sure you have balance. Straighten out your legs. You can point your toes, if you want, or flex them. Either or, choose one, don’t stay in between. Make sure you have a lot of balance with the table top.

Work slow. Go slow. Little by little, just like I did. I went slow, slow, slow, and I picked up the speed.

It’s very important that you have balance or else your feet are going to go. You don’t want that. You want to look clean. That’s the number one thing for a B boy is to look fresh and clean.

Here we are, about to learn how to do the New York Flare, all right.

The only thing that makes it different from any other flare is the beginning. All right, this is how the New York is do it out here New York, yo what up, all right, west coast you all do it differently. All right, so this is kind of hard, it’s just advanced, but you know we’re going to make it happen, so check it out.

Same thing, so let’s say if you do a regular flare, you use your left hand, you’re going to use your right hand, all right? That’s right you’re going right into the flare, you’re not going to hold yourself, all right? If you use your right hand for a regular flare, you’re going to put your left hand down, all right, so check it.

Once I go for my right hand I put it there, I put it like this, all right, not straight. Basically my hand is facing that way, all right, so my right hand is facing to the left. And why, because I’m going to spin on it a little bit. It’s very important that you spin, you’re going to spin on this, all right, and when you’re ready to do the flare you grab the floor, all right, so that you stay stationary because you’re not spinning no more.

You grab the floor, so you have grip, and then from there you start doing the flare, all right, we’re going to go through this. All right, so first, I do my little top rock first, all right, soon as I put my right hand down, I’m going for it. All right, spin, flare, okay? And that’s that, all right, so once you’re spinning, as soon as you catch enough momentum, you’re going to use that momentum, and it’s kind of like a swing, all right, you’re going to use your hip to go all the way around, all right? Here we go, New York Flare.

All right. Let’s go. Jack Hammer time. All right.

First we are gonna go through some phases. All right. Make sure we review a Hopping Hang-glide. All right. So let’s do the Hopping Hang-glide first.

Basically, you’re gonna be in this position. Which we call the Table Top, or Pilot position. All right. From there I’m gonna use my left hand. So I’m gonna be hopping with my left foot and tapping with my right hand. All right. Kinda like this. We are doing this kind of a motion. Hop. Hit. Hop. Hit. Hop. Hit. All right. First, Hopping Hang-glide. All right. Hit. Hop. Hit. Hop. Hit. Hop. All right. Now, a Jack Hammer is no hands. All right. So you want your elbow in a little bit closer. All right. So, we are gonna do once, twice, and then go right into the Jack Hammer. All right. Hit. Hop. Hit. Hop. Hit. Hop. All right.

It’s important, that when you’re doing the Jack Hammer, that you’re using this hand, or you’re going like this. You’re pushing and turning, like this, pushing and turning. Are you watching my hand? I’m doing this motion. Boom. Boom. All right. While you push you want to turn, so that you get back to this position, so you can turn again. So, you are pushing and turning at the same time. Get it? Got it? You want to kind of use your legs, kick out.

There’s different techniques. All right. One that I know is you use your legs. You crunch them in. You push them little by little. Not too much. If you kick them out too much, then you loose balance. All right. So, just little by little.

Transcript

Here we go! Kid Glyde.

Swipes. All right, we’re going to go to the next level, this time. For me, this is easier, but like I said earlier with other moves, it’s mental. A lot of moves are mental. There’s fear. Once you get fear in the way, it’s going to block you from doing a lot of things.

This move is fear-based. I remember when I was like 14, when I got this move, I was always scared to do it. But once I overcame the fear, I was able to do it. It’s a basic power move. Swipe’s is a basic power move. You can use it any time, and it’s crucial.

We’re going to do one-legged swipes. Wazzup, one-legged swipes? Here we go. Remember, we’re going to be in an elevated seat. This is the seat, elevated. You see my hips up, they’re really high. It’s important that your hips are this high. For height, and speed-wise too.

Check it out. We’re going to put our right leg in the air, put it as so. OK. Just like I told you guys with the head spins, we’re going to go by quarters. We’re going to go to one side, then to the back, other side, then back to the front. Very important, okay? This will help you turn easier. Once you get better, you can do the half turns, and even whole turns, which is pretty hard, but if you can do it, it’s sick.

Here we go. My right leg’s going to be in the air. That means I’m going to turn to my right. Once I turn to my right, I’m going to land to the left. My whole body’s going to turn, but I’m going to face the left.

Watch. Here, turn to the right, left. That was two feet. Now I’m going to do a one-legged. Here? Boom. Right leg in the air, make sure this kicks up as high as you can. Once it kicks up, your hands go to the right, as so.

We’re doing the four quarters, and then we’re going to do halves. Back to the front. Every time I landed, I landed a different way. So if your right leg is in the air, you’re going to the right, that means you’re landing on your left. You should always look to your left. If you’re using your left leg, that means you’re turning to your left, you land to the right. Those are swipes.

I hope you’re ready to take your footwork to the next level. I’ve got some advanced moves, tricks, and all of that just for you. All right.

Here at Dynamic Rockers Academy, we bring it. We have thirty years of knowledge that has been passed down from my father and other leaders of the Dynamic Rockers and I’m going to show you some of the stuff that we go through. All right.

First, I’m going to show you what a seven step is. All right. I don’t know if you guys already to know, but I’m going to show you the seven step. Then, we’re going to add a little flavor to it, which will make you look more advanced. All right. Check it out.

We’re here in our seat. Remember, this is what we call our seat in Dynamic Rockers Academy. All right. My hands are going to go to the right, right leg to the left. That’s one. All right.

The left leg’s going to kick back, two, all right, similar to our six step.

Three, we’re here. All right. Almost kind of like a push up, but a weird push up. Right hand up, left foot is going to replace it. All right. We’re right here.

Now, this is the hardest part. Five, our hips are going to come over, like that. Our butt’s in the air. Yeah. Then, our left leg is going to kick through, six. Bring it back, seven, and we start over.

Kid Glyde, this is easy, though. Check it out, though. We’ll make it hard. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Oh, added a little slide, so that’s what you want to do.

That little thought, that number five, we’re adding a slide, so basically, our right leg is going to kick through, like this. Just like that, when I slide and our left leg is going to come, kick through. That’s for six, seven. All right. That’s pretty hot, right?

All right, so you just want to add little slides in your footwork. It can be even six step, slide, six step, slide, whatever. You want to add little slides, add quick little steps, whatever. It makes it look more advanced. Plus, don’t forget about your form. Your form is very important. All right.

This is your seat. Your hands always go over your right. Hands go like this, over your knees. All right. If you go this way, same thing. All right. Your hands go over your knees for speed. You come like here, you have more surface area to go, less speed. The less surface area, the faster you go. See, I’m going here fast. Imagine, it would take me longer, right?

All right. Make it happen.

What’s up, Howcast? Another freeze combo for you guys. This time turtle freeze to the headstand. You don’t really see this that much. But, hey, I know how to do it. Turtle freeze, all right? We’re parallel with the floor, our body. All right, what I’m going to do is we’re going to tuck our head in, and at the same time our hips are going to go over our head.

Tuck in, and our hips go over to tripod. All right? Make sure you point that point of your head where you’re supposed to be on, all right? Not in the front, not all the way in the back. Be in line with the spine, all right? You don’t want to make your spine crooked. You want to be straight with your spine.

All right, here we go. So we’re here, turtle, tuck your head in, into the hips, legs. Tip of the day for this combo, get this stomach strong. Okay? As you noticed, I picked up my hips enough for my head to slide right in. You don’t have to slide your head in. Sometimes you can just place your head in. All right? I did that.

So, you pick up your hips, place your head and just shift your arms. All right? So you’ve just got to play with it. You’ve got to be comfortable with your body and understand your body. Everybody’s body is different. All right, so just learn how to pick yourself up. It’s important. If you want to go up levels, you’ve got to learn how to pick yourself up and bring yourself down.

Same thing as what we did earlier. We’re on our head, right? So we’re going to get our hips over our head again, so that we’re straight. And at the same time, as soon as we do that we’re sliding our head into the headstand position, okay? We’re sliding our head, so get on top of our head and at the same time our hands are moving to get into our tripod.

It’s very important that we get into the tripod. So let’s do it slow. Let’s do it real slow. So we’re here at the baby and then we’re going to slide our head like that.

Turtle freeze again, switch, over. Head on the floor. Awesome. And that is turtle to a baby freeze. To help you get this better, definitely got to work on your core.

Make sure you master each move, alright? Even baby from one side to the other, master that. Cause basically, the turtle’s in between, but with the turtle, you’re going up, your head’s going up. But, if you go from baby to the other baby, you’re just moving your head side to side. Alright? Turtle makes you go up a level and elevates. And it will help you a lot with your strength. Alright?

Howcast, what’s up? K-Glide here, about to take you on these levels. Time to go on levels with these freezes.

Gonna go from the turtle to the elbow. You ready? We’re going to do this. We got this. Check it out. Once again we’re going to go right into the turtle. Remember, it’s very important that you got this center ready to go. What we’re going to do from here, we’re going to go right into our forearm. How we’re going to do that, we’re going to lift our hips, remember this core, you have to work this out. We’re going to lift our hips over our head.

Your butt over your head, that’s what you’re thinking the whole time. While you’re pushing up, you’re going to use these biceps right here, you’re going to push and shift your hips over and keep your upper body straight. So we’re here. Turtle. My hips are going to go over my head and right at the same time I’m going to slide like that onto my forearm. Here we are, hips over the head, forearm, bam.

Once again, this is very important, this can help you learn how to push up like this. Come back down.

Transcript

Handstand to elbow freeze. You ready? Now when everything starts up and comes down, people tend to bring everything down. Make sure that doesn’t happen. The only thing that’s going down in levels is your arms.

If your hips, you drop your hips a little bit, which, of course, if you’re going down, you’re going to drop your hips naturally, you’re going to fall. It’s important that when you drop your level from handstand to the elbow, your hips basically shift upward even more. So it’s kind of like you’re going down but then you shift up again. Or you just hold it. You just hold this core so that you don’t move.

Remember, the legs don’t really do that much. If anything, they switch position. So here we go. Handstand to elbow freeze. We’re going to go drop onto our left elbow. It’s very important that you have your handstand mastered. You have to master these things. You have to master each move individually before you can put them together. Don’t get in a rush. Everybody wants to get everything really quick. Hey, slow and steady wins the race. So here we go. Handstand. Handstand. Balance. Then double down. There we go. Elbow freeze.

So now we’re here to do the coffee grinder, which I call the helicopter. Remember, all these moves, there’s different names. We didn’t have the Internet back then, so people would see moves and just put names on it. It wasn’t like everybody knew the name or the correct terminology. So don’t get mad, there’s different names.

Alright, so anyways, the helicopter. We’re going to go right into the seat. This is our seat. Remember, we’re going to start here and end here a lot of the times when we’re in footwork, alright? So, I’m going to do with my right leg, alright? Remember the first helicopter, or coffee grinder, that we did was like this. In the previous video.

Now we’re going to go backwards, alright? Alright, remember I stressed this part: lean forward, then leaning back; lean forward, leaning back. Alright? This is crucial. But, we’re going to sneak our leg in between there, alright? Lean forward, put my hands, my right leg’s going to go around, and that’s when I lean back, and I jump back, alright? So lean forward, hop, your leg comes through. Lean forward, you’re going to hop forward, and lean back. Alright? And when you get good at it, you can use one hand. Oh, snap. Alright? Two hands, alright? But make sure you get the two hands first.

But, it’s important that you guys do it both ways. So, we’ll do it on our left side. Remember, the more you do things on each side, the more vocabulary you have. Alright, so now same thing. Alright, I’m going to lean forward, put my hand, my left leg’s going to come around behind us, I’m going to hop forward, lean back. Alright? Lean forward, lean back. Alright? Keep your leg straight. Other leg.

Welcome, once again, Howcast. Love you guys. We’re here for the elbow tutorial, elbow freeze, and basically, this is one of the basic freezes that can help you with your power moves. Okay. Why do I say that? Because it helps with your core. Remember the four points I said. So your shoulders, your hips, you’ve got to get that area strong. And this move right here? This move right here, you need it.

So check it out. Here’s how we’re going to do it. We’re going to start with our left elbow. It’s important you guys do it with both elbows. But let’s start with our left elbow. Check it out, check it out. This is a straight line, okay? Just like any art form, like I was saying earlier, we need our lines. We are going to use our hands to grab the floor. This is your roots. Grab that floor. So, you’re straight. Now, where your elbow is, pretend there’s an imaginary line from your hand, and your other hand is going to go right there. okay? See that? Creating lines. This is important. Not this, not that, not over here, right there. This is important.

Left arm, on the floor, right hand down. Okay, just like I told you, the lines. Now. This is the most important part. Your hips need to be up. Since my left is on the floor, my right foot is going to be on the floor like that. Now, with my left leg, my left leg is going to kick in the air. And once I kick in the air, you’re not going to kick so much. You want to use, remember, your core, to lift yourself up. Don’t use your legs. Don’t throw it. Use your core to go up. Boom, up. And right there, you get your balance, and you want to hold this for 30 seconds. Your goal is to have it for 30 seconds.

So imagine. You go to do it, you hold it for two or three seconds, you fall. All right. You go back up. You hold it for another five. You fall. Until you get 30 seconds. That’s good. So you do that every day.

The second one, there’s two, there’s two forms, all right? Here we go. Right here, you’ve got to get this. This is the first one, second one, third one. Do that every day, and you’re going to be powerful. Just like me!

Do your turn, boom. You’re in the air. Okay? Work on that, and I promise you, your power is going to get better, your freezes, everything.
