  • 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.

  • both flares are bboy flares^^

  • you spelled gymnast wrong

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

  • nice bent legs haha

  • 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

  • @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.

  • @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.

  • ur an idiot man

  • i dont see the difference. lol

    i'd just call those flares.. aha

  • sory my english

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