That is a showcase of how limber your joints are, feel blessed~!

Oh, and P.S. Don't listen to those haters, Christ loves you.

[TheVeR01]

you have to keep doing it from when you're little, or else you're body sorta adjusts outta it. It's also a handy way to keep yourself lean and trimmed ^V^

[Aquawolfmusic]

Origamigryphon this rant made me LOL. XD@

[DJSKWhirl]

@Origamigryphon fuckin love you, damn Gryphon, just damn ^^

[briannacollins44]

@Origamigryphon um, what you did was very insane, bringing up race when you just did what you did! please bitch.

[Origamigryphon]

@briannacollins44 I don't know if you noticed, but he called me a 'nigga' first. It's called responding to troll with troll. When in Rome!

[briannacollins44]

@Origamigryphon yeah i agree.

[KyoTheFoxDemon]

@Origamigryphon I see what you did there xD lol... but I don't think they did

[TheDarkwolf9483]

That's a very kool talent lol lol XD

[hikarathefox]

You would go faster and longer if your back was level, plus it is lass stressful on your hands.

[Origamigryphon]

@hikarathefox Problem with that is, legs are longer than arms. I cannot move as efficiently or as easily if I try to make my back level.

[hikarathefox]

@Origamigryphon I know legs are longer than arms, but that still doesn't stop you from keeping your back straight. If you know how to do it, you could run, like I said, faster and longer. Running with your legs up is just a bear crawl.

[Origamigryphon]

@hikarathefox I have tried to make my back level before, but that just bends my legs so that I can't move them as easily as I'd like. So I'll just stick with having my butt in the air. :3

[TrytheGreenOne]

*Thumbs up* I thought I was the only one. The fact that you're 28 gives me much comfort : ) I shall continue doing this (because it is SO much fun.)

[Origamigryphon]

@TrytheGreenOne It is very fun! Also a great exercise.

[detestsleep]

i walk run chase cats jump (really far hehe) tackle fight bite bark etc on all fours all the time, really fun!

[ScarletCharmz]

lmao you totally remind me of Mowgli from the jungle book! Idk y! I think its cuz of the angle you walk in. I like it! nice vid

[Turtluver4u]

put UR BUTT DOWN ITS TO HIGH IN THE AIR, plz dont mark this as spam im trying to help u ive been practicing running and walking on all fours for 3 years...

[Origamigryphon]

@Turtluver4u Sorry sweetie, that's just how I run. And I've been doing it since i could walk, and I am now 28, so you do the math.

[Isaiahpeeples]

@Origamigryphon LOL! i like your style.

[Mewsaphine]

I thought I was the only one who used to do that as a kid. I guess that's why I turned out to be a dog trainer...lol. If you lower your legs and butt, and lengthen yourself out a bit, you'd be surprised how much faster you can go, and what you can jump over. I used to pile beanbags and other things and jump over them that way. Weird I know, but it was really fun.

[detestsleep]

@Mewsaphine i still do

[sweeneytoddfan11]

lol I can do it but not as fast : (

[linkLoverAG]

i find it easier to run up stairs on all fours you should try it is so much easier and quicker

[Origamigryphon]

@linkLoverAG Way ahead of you, buddy. :3

[linkLoverAG]

@Origamigryphon :) cool

[SantaFishes101]

@linkLoverAG I thought I was alone! YAY!!! XD

[linkLoverAG]

@SantaFishes101 nope ^_^

[Mikrogrimm]

@linkLoverAG Agreed :D LOL XD (Imagines mom trying to do the same XD FAIL!)

[hgfykul]

@linkLoverAG It's because when you run upstairs or uphill your hind legs (legs) lower and you get more horisontal (y) But all is about the technique, we are not built to run on all fours so we have to close the angels in our hind legs to move as best! :P But thats hard cause it's much more exhausting!

[hgfykul]

Wow, you have a perfect fitted body for this!!! :D I have not x( Stiff muscles everywhere, loong legs and weak arms!! But I practise anyway x) and my mom hates when I do cause she gets very annoyed of the beat sound xD Does your parents get annoyed too?

[linkLoverAG]

@hgfykul i have long legs but im avarage hight 5'4- 5 ish but we own a labrador that is always going up and down stairs so they cant tell who it is me or cole my dog

[hgfykul]

@linkLoverAG Haha, oki ^^ i'm quite tall overall xD 175 cm...

Well, that sounds pretty great! :P

[linkLoverAG]

@hgfykul yeah i get away with alot since my labs like a younger brother even though hes 70 in dog years :3

[cloudsalvador1]

you know i hate how when everyone walks on all fours ur butt just sticks up in teh air. we need legs like dogs where they just fuckign curve a bit so we can walk on all foors

[spiritkitten314]

i luv walking/running on all fours! whenever im feeling wolfish i do it!

[TheFoxChic]

may i ask, can you tell me how to make a quadsuit??? im stumpeded :D yes i has me own dictionary! ans bookeh! oh and er i need to know materials and everything cause im like completely stumped can ANY1 help me?

[Origamigryphon]

I haven't the first clue where to start making a quad, I'm sorry! Making a quad is in my far flung future.

But if you need information, there is a community on LJ called Quadsuit, also the more popular fursuit, where you can ask questions of this nature. (PLEASE be sure to read the rules/memories of the comms first before posting!)

[worldworks]

I've been thinking about practicing running on all fours for ninjutsu research. You probably can buy quad suits. You also did this exercise for the military? The Canadian Army huh?

[Origamigryphon]

Canadian? What gave you that idea? I'm in the US. Yes, this exercise is commonly known as the Bear Crawl.

[worldworks]

the fact that the position could have helped you avoid getting shot at let alone gang raped by your male counterparts of the US Army.

[Origamigryphon]

@worldworks Nope, not in the Army, either. And the Air Force has a strict policy on sexual assault, so I don't have to worry about that. But I don't think this position would help, considering all the packs and gear I would be carrying if I ever got sent to a war zone. Could be!

[worldworks]

the only time it seems sexual assault doesn't happen is in the marines due to the fact that both sexes are taught how hand to hand combat.

[WEBKINZ307]

i run faster on all fours than i do on two feet! xD looks like u r like me! i am making a quadsuit but i donr know how to do the part where your hands go in!!

[LeSaVy]

@WEBKINZ307 what i did was get a peice of PVC pipe and covered it in fur and attatched foam paws at the bottom with elastic and hot glue and put small fishing weights in the claws to hold them down.. theres a walking test for my quadsuit on my channel

[NovainAway]

Wow. You run way better than me XD

Could i also try this idea for the future? :3

[TearsOfOblivionXIII]

omg that's amazing how you can run on all fours. i used to be able to do that but now because my back is so bad, i can't do it anymore. when i make quadsuits i make arm stilts because otherwise i'd kill my back. its nice that you can run around like that though.

[Ookani]

I'd say, at least, that you make some padding for the heels of your hands, because I've walked for a couple minutes on all fours and it kills your fingers and wrists

If, when you make the fore paws, build it off a shoe or some kind of /very/ light hand weights, you can grip the weight, and build foam padding around it, so you've got the natural wrist movement.

Don't forget to compensate for the digigrade back legs, too!

[Origamigryphon]

I'll definitely keep that in mind :D I've also walked and run extensively on all fours - sometimes even for exercise, and it does kill my wrists.

[mobilepup]

only thing is if u add too much paddening to the body you risk making the costume much warmer to wear.

[Origamigryphon]

Yeah, I've thought of that. I may just make a 'shell' of foam, but who knows. I haven't thought about it much since I posted this; I'm such a procrastinator.

[mobilepup]

another approach is the hand and knees design while you are not as agile with the stilts design it helps keep your back end lower. as long as you apply lots of paddening to your hands and knees.

[victoriapschen]

Ive also been looking at quadsuits because im interested, but I dislike the stilt things =/.

[K3Sk3]

lol i do the same thing especially when i wrestle with my dogs or when my back hurts too much to walk straight. i was probably drooled on by a dog when i was a baby ~shrugs~

[KimikotheKat]

HAHAHA Thats great now i want to try!! ^.^ U do remind me of Mogli!! hahaha Nice job!!! and good luck!!!!! cant wait to c it!

[KyuKyuteKyuubi]

Wow, i run a little like that but my legs are bent a little more. You remind me a little of mogli from Jugle book! Kawaii!

[ReinaEquina]

ahhahahhahaha she does xD

[annthepup]

i can run like dat cool quad peeps!!

[1992KCWolf]

=D wow, you can run pretty fast. |D sweet

[TheDoucheFairy]

OOH OOOH i can do that too!! but real fast :O i can go as fast as my cat but i get tired and topple over lol

[Origamigryphon]

Oh, trust me, i can go faster, but I didn't have much space to run in. :3 Whenever we did this for military PT I would always beat everyone X3

[InSaneStardust]

Lawlz i love running around on all fours, but of course it freaks out people who see you doin it XP!

[keepaopenmind]

Beautiful.

[fergielion]

Wow...:O You gots talent thar. -3-

[pashnekwa]

You should try and keep you butt down as much as possible. It looks better, but tired you legs more...

[DavidGraczyk101]

lol good job

[cerberusvv]

WTF?!?!?!?!?!

[Origamigryphon]

You ought to try it sometime, maybe you won't WTF so hard. ^^

[cerberusvv]

riiiiight...... lol!
