[soniik]

i seen him at citywalk in december, man hes the sikest guy ever. he was incredible when i saw him on 30 seconds to fame but in person he swept me away

[fugtard]

That's not a man, that's a robot.

[okodorifuto]

You are right, that's not a man... That's a living legend.

[damocrian]

He's strobin or tickin? What is the real difference between both, any clue someone?

[poppincan]

when you're tickin, you're popping double time. but when you strobe, you dont pop, you're just dimestopping a lot.

[Evilnorther]

+1 - that's a good answer...

Oh...How I love to watch Flat Top's performances... Hell, I should move to the USA to meet him...

Like I said (maybe 100 times) the best strober in the world.)

[eldamus]

@poppincan actually ticking involves hitting (flexing of the muscles) at the point of the dimestop. where as with strobing you're dimestopping without hitting...

[epikuroarq]

Strobing Using the same principle as dime stopping, but movements between halts should be shorter, and as quick and regular as possible to give the impression that the dancer is moving within a strobe light.

Ticking A way of popping where the dancer pops at smaller intervals, generally twice as fast as normal

[TheFRESHBLADE]

@damocrian  strobin

[Freakazoid456]

I JUST got back from City Walk omfg he made me dance freestyle it was so funnn i was GETTTINN IITTT!!!!

[ReliableProductions]

Flattop is legend.

[AGentertainment]

HAHA I was just there this evening at 1am and he WAS THERE. Didn't know he's been a street performer for so long. Must love what he does, and that's great.

[ObiAntKenobi]

[Romancewright]

FLATTOP,

Your Homey from Chicago, IL

"Romance"

[pleasintan]

Hey Rueben. That's how you were introduced to me by your wife who left you and returned back to the east coast. How come you are not famous yet. If you were to perform back east, you would definitely get laughed at. Because you really suck.

[iliyan17]

And who are you?!? Complex booby!!!

[iliyan17]

I mean pleasintan.

[buslines45]

this dude is a legend he's been around for at least 20 + years
