Gymnist Flares vs Bboy Flares

[SpaceDude3600]

both are bboy flares because they SUCKED

[93Mischief]

you spelled gymnast wrong

[93Mischief]

i see the difference in technique, but they are both flares. there is no type of flare that is different.

[crustygymshorts]

nice bent legs haha

[BBoyFox189]

both flares are bboy flares^^

[Dab1sh0p]

I don't see what the difference is of bboy flares and gymnast flares, i mean gymnast flares are v legged and they keep there toes pointed but thats pretty much it

[RajaJayasinghe]

ur an idiot man

[inoout]

i dont see the difference. lol

i'd just call those flares.. aha

[mynameisBandys]

sory my english

but bboy flare is more ass to back more legs to front :) its better

[Zeer0walkz]

I see no difference

[BboyHeavenly]

real gymnastic flare is smoother... on the other hand, it doesnt mean breakdancin flare is ugly to c, every1 have their own style to do flare, either very fast, or kinda slow. check out my video trailer, i got perfect flare n anythang else i need.

[bjgotswagg54098]

i vote 4 bboy flare :D

[jayrflare]

to the guy that said there was barely any difference needs to open his eyes more. The extra height in the back means ALOT

[HipHopKitteh]

@jayrflare So you're basically saying that bboy flares are just HARDER to do because of the exaggerated back height, but still looks basically the same as gymnast flares? Double-edged tongue, man.

[jayrflare]

@HipHopKitteh well since this comment was a year ago i have no idea what i meant. But now that i actually know my flares i can say that they are both different. Gymnist flares go more horizontal and the bboy flares go more vertical. And i think what i meant from higher in the back means a lot as in it makes other bboy moves easier to do like flare to airflare would be much harder by doing gymnists flares since your hips arent that high in the back.

[koolkeith]

The Difference is that Gymnast scissor as the come around to the back making them look like they chop a little bit (not really shown in the clip) They also use less hips, whereas good bboy flares look the same on both side, keeping there legs wide, and more hips

[saltfan2]

gymnast flares my ass lol!

[MugenFin]

There is more than one way to do flares, halos, windmills and there's like three ways to do airtracks... part of being a bboy is doin things how YOU the individual wants to do them.

Jeez go sell some medicine bitches....

[urbcire]

there is no difference. bboys got the flare from gymnastics. "bboy flares" are just unclean gymnast flares

[MemetronDaBboy]

Yo bro there was barely any difference. But the real difference is gymnast point the toes and use planche strength rather than momentum to make it powerful. But breakin it down all they do is a different technique and leg movement.

[MemetronDaBboy]

@MemetronDaBboy what i meant barely any difference in what you show here.

Also gymnast learn circle first

[MegaMoFUnk]

@MemetronDaBboy YEAHHH thats true lol.

[floorrealcrew]

i tell you the difference there aint a difference and its simple there aint no such thing as bboy flares what it means is you just cant do it properly and its like a struggle so to make it sound right people say oh bboy flares fuck that am a bboy i went to gymnast school to learn that shit proper not half hearted.

[andyisgay]

man i'm a bboy and i learned that shit myself. LEGIT. gymnast flares are lower and their leg stance is diffrent. but they can be clean in their own way.

[spawcage6]

yea ur retarded cuz.gymnast flares for one have a different leg stance.two their hip motion is emphasized with a swing to the left and right of the body as with bboy flares the waist motion is emphasized with a swing forward and backward.notice durin the bboy flares his waist goes above his head while gymnast flares dont.and dont be callin shit half hearted.not everyone is a rich bitch who can afford schools like that.most of us had to learn on the concrete.requires a different approach jackass

[MegaMoFUnk]

@floorrealcrew i agree with andyisgay

[MugenFin]

@floorrealcrew good for you but you sound like a jackass. "Im a bboy" doesnt make you the flare authority. And there is two different forms of flares one that's more true to the gymnastic thomas flare and one that you see MOST bboys do today. To blatantly say there is ONE way to do flares as all other ways are basically half ass or wrong, well that sounds like something a gymnast would say not a bboy....

[fangstryke]

i think the difference is when u do gym flares u keep looking forward but in bboy flares u lean in to it(but i'm not sure)

[lLikeMaple]

im guessing the difference is that bboy flares are a bit higher?

[asthenia166]

More likely a bboy flare would be classified as one higher than a gymnastics flare, but gymnastics flare is about form, and you have to do it only one certain way.

[Cmonilikeme]

Where are yu practicing at cuz i wanna go there sumday so i can do sum kewl stuff :D

[chronicbeast]

We're at a gymnastics gym. Really, you can practice bboy stuff anywhere there is a good floor. We just came here to do flips n' stuff.

[itsjustommy]

lol that comment made me laugh. "I wanna go there sumday so i can do sum kewl stuff"
