    I'm usually not into this sort of thing but it looks so cool...I'm not even a fan of the music or anything but this whole gliding thing is really cool...it looks unreal...How does one even start to practice that...

    It is MoonBoy.
    His brother is "abangben".

    Go to his YouTube channel: abangben

    If that vid is really of you then congrats, you're a hell of a shuffler (at least to me).

    I've learned about a while back, and I like to watch vids of it but I'd probably never get into it. The person I like to watch the most is this guy:

    Suspenders

    (That's the shoe name).

  21. Shadowserpant

    oh...
    are they common?
    i've never heard of them

  22. 1KillaWeapon

    Only in Melbourne/Australia confusedsmilie.gif

    Ummm. I think you can buy them online as well.
    Lemme find the link for you ...
    or could could google it.


    You also might want to practice on smooth surface with tight socks maybe ?
    Going outside and shuffling might be a challenge.

  23. Shadowserpant
    Date: Sun, Jul 27 2008 20:35:45

    yea ill look online, or i'll try and find something similar
    i think i'm doing ok outside...
    i'd like to be able to do it without requiring a dance floor or anything, it seems more appealing that way

    Many shufflers shuffle in baggy pants.
    Such has "phat pants" aka (also known as) "phatties".

    It's those pants that have a pattern is is sort of shiny ?
    It covers the shoes (well, should of) and looks more appealling and smoother.

    Date: Mon, Jul 28 2008 06:05:51

    yea i read on wikipedia
    but.. i couldnt walk around with those on XP

    im interested in learning this and incorporating it with other dance styles like popping

    and i'm thinkin i could just wear long jeans...

    but i'm mostly worried about the shoes, right now i wear skating shoes, vans

    Do you do "one-step" shuffling ?
    Or "two-step".

  27. Shadowserpant
    Date: Mon, Jul 28 2008 21:42:21

    ...i dont know...
    lol i just barely started learning, i just watched some videos on youtube
    where like u put your feet in a T, then u turn one foot and lift the other, and turn your toes and bring the foot down
    i wanna learn everything man

  28. PenCell
    Date: Tue, Jul 29 2008 00:58:11

    Hmm I must have those pants now. And I need to get some better shoes to do this ( I only wear flip-flops)

    Oh and you need to make a video of you penspinning and shuffling at the same time. That would be awesome.

    lmao
    hey something occured to me...
    i have this video on my ipod, sorry i can't link you my internet's retarded
    he's my favorite popper, his name is Michael 'Onion' Kim
    during his So You Think You Can Dance audition (not the latest one, the old season), he seems to do a few shuffles in his routine. I'll link it later if you can't find it. I'd like to know if he really is shuffling, it's interesting that he would know about it.

    Patience my friend.
    It takes practice. Don't expect yourself to be really good when your wishing to be really good.



    I never really knew some dance in my state (Melbourne) could really be an international dance.

    Your talking about card shuffling.

    Yes it is Melbourne Shuffle, you can make a new topic about card shuffling if you want XiLeRaTe.

    most shufflers I have seen wear skate shoes

    some websites i looked at say to put tape on the bottom of your shoes for slipperyness

    @1killaweapon suspenders are the belt things they wear. I can shuffle, i dont like too tho. its actually really simple. although all i know is the running man and the L step or whatever

    Hardstyle shuffle is like freaking hard, i think? I think it will injure your knees in the long term from all the stomping.

    Softstyle shuffle looks nicer and smoother imo

    well it's 2 beats for each step
    beat 1: leg goes back to the MIDPOINT, other leg goes up
    beat 2: leg goes back again to the very back, where the other foot was originally, and the other leg goes down where the first foot was originally


    for a simpler answer, it's the first one. lol

  48. 1KillaWeapon
    Date: Fri, Sep 12 2008 05:45:43

    Yeah. You do 2 steps.
    That's why it's called 2 Step.

    You could start off with one step.. then progress to 2 step..
    Suspenders are also a type of shoe that shufflers wear in Melbourne.

  49. Shadowserpant
    Date: Fri, Sep 12 2008 06:05:36

    it's called 2 step?
    so thats what u were talking about...

    Running man IS 2 step.
    Some people are lazy, and start off as doing an incomplete running man; 1 step.

    Date: Thu, Jan 8 2009 12:26:55

    those pants are baggy so when u shuffle it looks like your actually gliding, but it's actually a waste a money since
    Plains : $75
    Plains with 2 rings is $150
    and designs ones cost liek $250 - $300

    and if you ever try to wear one outside your gonna look like some weirdo

    The type of dance is the Melbourne shuffle, hardtyle is actually a subgenre of hard trance (THE MUSIC STYLE), and this kind of music is popular to dance too.

    Now because of an influx of misguided youths who have never been to a rave and definition of shelving is a form of matter organization (and Malaysian HR'ers), entering the shuffle scene, flailing there arms and running on the spot non stop to hardtyle music. People are being led to beleive that hardstyle is a type of dance.

    /end rant.

    Check this guy out he's one of my fav shufflers.
