Why are you judging a dance you dont know anything about? Are you a bboy? at 96 years old im surprised you're still alive. You're disrespecting all of us bboys/bgirls saying that kind of shit. Footwork isn't original? Footwork is the rawest part of bboying, other components of bboying are comparable to other dances but footwork didn't exsist before bboying, its the thing that sets the dance apart from the rest, I would say thats pretty original.
yes there are.the basics are freestyle,jerks, and burns. freestyle is what you do before the break of the song comes and has a very salsa feel to it. now when the break of the song comes that when hit jerks(front jerks,side jerks, half jerks,full jerks etc) followed by burns.this only basics though as you get deeper into the dance you have to develop control over your body so that you dont touch the person your rocking against and crossing the apache line. look up king uprock
if you look closer mr apollo landing scientist, caster was wiping his nose (hence the little nerd outfit he was rocking at the time. It suited the character of his gear) and born wiped his eye to the lyrics of the beat. Gotta rock the lyrics and beats if you want to be a great rocker.
Rocking imo probably just as much fun as breaking. Theres the apache line... then you HAVE to break from start of the song to finish... then you're dancing with your opponent, making up random burns OH MAN.. fun fun haha
His name is born only because, He kills so much beats, then after he top rocks, it causes earthquakes which send waves to the martains above and they give life to more songs to born. He kills songs, only so they can reborn again. BBOY BORN
its true, i think it should be only considered biting when you copy like a full routine, but sampling is a different story. If i do what born just did in the video for like 3 min yeah then thats obviously biting..
You know how people say god can't be human because that's too much power to give to a man? Born can't be human because that's too much style to give to a man
toprock is dance you can freestyle and everything but its only for you to get down to footwork. uprock is more diffrent. your dancing but your staying up the whole time. but there things in uprocking you dont normally do in toprocking. look at CRAZY LEGS toprocking, then look at DYNASTY ROCKERS uprocking. if its confusing let me know
@girtisholland I don't understand how that can be called biting. I've never seen ken swift rock to this song before and even I do the baby part automatically lol.
What I wonder about ppl who comment on youtube on bboy vids and claim that they're bboys themselves, I want you guys to tell me the names of top rock, footwork, freezes, and powermoves. Just curious. every move in bboying has a name, you just don't move randomly in a cool way. there are certain ways in doin stuff until you have some way to make it part of your style. so anyone please tell me what you know.
correct me if im wrong, but the OGs that teach me tell me that rockdance is what they first called uprocking. like the original uprock, not the battle/fighting uprock us bboys use in battles.
Okay...here we go...His freestyle steps are okay...Very basic...what you wanna do is combine footwork and hand movements at the same time...decent skips...definitely bboy style...but there is a difference when it comes a ROCK style...not bad! Dont worry I have workshop in Korea at Rivers Studio April 22nd...Ill give him help... After that...woohooo..carzy crazy!
but i just love this shit. i wish bboys would uprock more. if there's one thing where you can show attitude and style is in your uprock...keep on rockin' !
btw dudes, this is rock dancing. This is the type of dance u use brooklyns for. I don't get it much myself, but top rocking and this is DISTINCT-ually different.
32KOAST is right. i didn't see any biting whatsoever. he's toprocking and uprocking on beat. those dynasty rockers were toprocking/uprocking and hitting the beats as well. it's the same style of dance over the same song, so it's bound to look similar. people throw around the word "bite" way too easily.
hey i thought that there were different styles of uprock... that old school uprock you touch the ground, but some style you only have to go half way if at all... Wat born is doing her does look more like toprock....
“My style, my flavour” - Bboy born
I watched this video 12 years ago, and now im back for the nostaliga, man was I inspired by this guy.
hell yeah! i'm seeing this for the first time. what a legend.
You a legend for coming back to this 12 years later. Born definitely one of the greatest bboys ever.
Watching again today, it's awesome.
Same
When someone tells you it's not a form of dance and it's just people spinning on their heads...
No crazy power moves needed Born is just natural at killin' footwork
man, toprocking that long is hhaarrdd. .plus he still keeps his creativity.. creative endurance. hahha.
He's just dance on toprock, he's way too awesome man!!!!!
2021년에 봐도,,,, 간지가 지린다. 이,,지림은 죽을때까지 변치않을것이다.
I see Born, I click... Its that simple
Love the cuddling the baby on the 'baaaabbyyy' lyric. That is one of the original rocker styles.
always fresh and ready to rock
Rock dancing? I just see born doing what he always does, his good ol toprock~
this was 2 minutes and 33 seconds of entertainment, born is the sickest out there!
Coming back in 2020. This is the video that got me into bboying back in 2008
The flava in a bboy that i have seen, the great bboy born the legend
16 years later still fly A F

Born boy,you is my inspiration.Peace from Brazil.
I remember when this first came out...fuck time flies

This guy love the dance and i love him .
he's a criminal for being so smooth
bboy born would serve me ans alot of people that to dude is tight
if you look closer mr apollo landing scientist, caster was wiping his nose (hence the little nerd outfit he was rocking at the time. It suited the character of his gear) and born wiped his eye to the lyrics of the beat. Gotta rock the lyrics and beats if you want to be a great rocker.

haha..i like the "BABY" part..good one!
song is too good
style is every thing :)
That's because it was around about a decade before bboying.
His name is born only because,
He kills so much beats, then after he top rocks,
it causes earthquakes which send waves to the martains above and they give life to more songs to born. He kills songs, only so they can reborn again.
BBOY BORN
bboy born with smooth flow like rivers...
bboy Born rulezzz! I love his style..
holy shit thats bboy physicx filming born rock
Ken Swift did the baby move a few years back.
its true, i think it should be only considered biting when you copy like a full routine, but sampling is a different story. If i do what born just did in the video for like 3 min yeah then thats obviously biting..
for uprocking, trickx is hella sick. you guys should look him up.
You know how people say god can't be human because that's too much power to give to a man?
Born can't be human because that's too much style to give to a man
2:00 he was drying his eyes. (to the music....)
-monki.
BMF
they BIT BORN
I know that bboyborn is gone, not see the race for a long time.
These were the days
man, he rocked that "clloonnee" nice.
toprock is dance you can freestyle and everything but its only for you to get down to footwork. uprock is more diffrent. your dancing but your staying up the whole time. but there things in uprocking you dont normally do in toprocking. look at CRAZY LEGS toprocking, then look at DYNASTY ROCKERS uprocking. if its confusing let me know
I love Born, hes my influence =) he can seriously toprock and uprock all day hes such a beast.
Give it up or turn it loose (Jungle Groove Remix)- James Brown

@girtisholland I don't understand how that can be called biting. I've never seen ken swift rock to this song before and even I do the baby part automatically lol.

32KOAST is right. i didn't see any biting whatsoever. he's toprocking and uprocking on beat. those dynasty rockers were toprocking/uprocking and hitting the beats as well. it's the same style of dance over the same song, so it's bound to look similar. people throw around the word "bite" way too easily.
Bboy born DOPE STYLE!!! (Y)
hell yeah, and one of the best yo
hey i thought that there were different styles of uprock... that old school uprock you touch the ground, but some style you only have to go half way if at all...
Wat born is doing her does look more like toprock....
omg you have certainly a talent
so good

Mute the video and put another break beat...and he still hits em....
its rocking its a different dance from toprocking although its similar
