strife you should make a hour long educational documentary. We all know you have the connections with the bboy world. ;)

[@popol7ik]

that was really cool to learn about the right name about russian taps, there wouldn't have been any other way for me to have learned that

[@strifetv]

@enzymesX Correct! You cannot learn this stuff from just anyone. Floor Gangz learned it by talking with our bboy pioneers and gaining knowledge. We are lucky the pioneers of our dance are still alive. Always travel to learn from others, and don't stay complacent. Each one, teach one.

[@thebrucenasty]

Mad knowledge. Props to Profo Won for sharing and Strife for documenting.

[@Doully]

This was an amazing video. Mad ups for sharing this, strife and profo!

[@deo.strengthspan.project]

The moment he said "Canada" and "threads" I instantly thought of Megas. This was a really fantastic video. Even though the dance is still relatively young, it's still important to try to record and account for the history, so I'm glad Strive.tv took the time to make this. Thanks to Strife.tv and thanks to Profo!

[@dynomattt]

How to smoke Profo Won: Ask him to try and say perspectives. LOL. On a serious note though, most eye opening vid I've seen in a while. It was interesting to think about these styles and how they apply to myself and other bboys in my scene to see where peoples styles tended to lie. Much respect.

[@DanceKiid1]

yo strife man we realy need more vids wit knowledge like these if possible for those who cant reach pioneers

[@stoneski]

Guidance yo!! Read the article a long time ago, happy to see it reiterated into video form. Big ups to Profo, and thanks for shouting out Gizmo, a Canadian legend.

[@cafroman99]

yo big thanks to strife and homie from floor gangz, my apologies i dont know you, but big thanks for droppin the knowledge and lettin the new Bboys grow.

[@EquisFEENELCAOS]

The combination of the three styles is the best!

[@bboylilflix]

i also expected something like a move or two in footwork, but i got much more, i got free knowledge and inspiration, mad RESPECT for profo won and strife tv for uploading :D

[@MJordanIsWhite]

FORGET MATH AND CHEMISTRY I'D HECKA RATHER LEARN THIS! MORE OF THESE PLEASE, STRIFE!!!!

[@djrunk]

as a hungry student of the game this is exactly what i needed! I would be much more prone to watching bboy vids if they contained educational material like this! thanks strife!

[@DLinton]

That's been my progression. I started with steps/hops, moved on to sweeps/spins, and now I'm incorporating thread chains.

[@LawkSam]

I expected profo to teach actual footwork steps, but this was much educational! Thanks for this.

[@SLANT2o9]

This is probably the best knowledge about bboying I've seen.

[@Ness4]

loving this vid, thanx strife and thanx profo for recognizing the real

[@CASEYROXAS]

Man this guy knows his stuff!!! i gots some studying up to do, thanks Profo!!!

[@pleasepaul]

anything that expands bboy history is good knowledge. very informative video profo

[@tnasstbruin]

daaaaaang PROFO WON FOR THE KNOWLEDGE!!!! TWO for the time. that was a good 6 minutes. thank you Strife for the post (wadup Loan, I know you).

[@bkino1]

i love it! thanks for take your time in this educational video.

[@MyoujouAdauchi]

I feel blessed that I had someone teach me all this knowledge in person already. People really should go out and find someone to teach em

[@BboyhErOicEagle]

yeah finally Canada gets some love! big ups to profo won for sharing his knowledge and passing on what he's learnt!

[@bent]

@strifetv i meet him before he really nice..really glad i can learn from him

[@ABoyCalledThomas]

Thanks for sharing the knowledge!! This was inspiring and expanded my thoughts on footwork! Now I will teach it to my class...

[@basstiantapiantee7018]

sisoi

[@Ntzex]

AWESOME this is the true art of bboying everyone should see this to know that bboying isn't a subculture or a sport... but a TRUE form of art

[@TheLdoubleE]

2:38 thats a real bboys hand

[@BboyZeon]

As a bboy i would say that, when i started breakin' i just wanted to you know.. Break! But i became more interested in bboying though. I wanted to learn about history. Its very important to me. Thanks dude! I will spread this history to my friends and keep bboying living on

[@buknar456]

im from ottawa and megus was my big influence in the early 2000s

[@rabbitize]

great historical background on the movement

[@MrLevicrz]

The learning (burn) is the background music

[@OntonSNC]

Profo knows wats up! Much Respect! Supernaturalz in da house!

[@Rockin5teve]

Just went to Profo Won's Workshop. Dude is dope!

[@WuuKong87]

Are you chicano or do you have some latino origin? It is very interesting how you explain the video with background history and visual example...

[@i8myrice2day2]

@Statykbboy Yes, because floorgangz is very close friends with mighty zulu kingz. If I'm not mistaken mzk has many oldschool/newgeneration bboys. Ness also shares his knowledge and experience with his crew.

[@filamBboy]

Thank you for this video, stife.

[@LikeHellaHellaLike]

@strifetv fasho!!!!!, real talk.

[@Statykbboy]

@ThePayDayRay word up, i understand... perhaps the level is not as distinguishable as other styles to make it known and named as a japanese style.. but yah good to know..

[@BboyFreezebreaker]

much respect , and thanks alot

[@urbcire]

i knew i noticed these three distinct styles

[@strifetv]

@LawkSam Anyone can teach footwork steps. Only a few can explain where they came from.

[@PingSway]

dope! i learned alot. thank you

[@MrRyushinn]

respect to BTX...Gizmo and Flex. Man we really need to step our game up Canada lets go! Especially Toronto!

[@xBoneXBBoy]

@strifetv I remember zeshen wrote something before saying learn one move you will have one way to move. learn one concept and you will have different ways to move or something like that

[@StepisSCC]

NautyOne like always in his style :DD

[@ycantuseemeO3]

@Rockin5teve It was a pretty dope workshop! Which one did you go to?

[@FATofBMS]

@wearesupreme1 Those are the Nike Flight Falcons in the Black and Red colorway.

[@bboyrace]

so nice....fresh...

[@thebboyheartbreaker]

I like the Toronto style the best.

[@Xiia0Sn00pY]

anybody know where i can find a doorag or bandana like profo here?

[@latinoshuffler96]

much respect to profo!

[@BboyhErOicEagle]

@i8myrice2day2 ...you're saying that to bboy lego. One of the judges for the Red Bull BC One US Qualifier this year.

[@Statykbboy]

@MrRyushinn how much more do you need in terms of city exposure? tdot is always known internationally...of course theres tons of dope crews out in tdot now, mind you it was different before when btx snc bbc etc when they were reppin hard, and different challenges to make themselves known. international battle and events back then are more prestige than it is presently. Now theres so many events that its a different challenge for newer kats to get themselves known...

[@tanyuj]

just curious, what's with the fat laces that's trailing from his jeans? seen some heads in my area deck them out like that too. just dont understand.

[@kevwalk96]

BBoy Dyzee is the Threading Master !

[@luisfernandoassuncao4518]

strife...make a video about stretching for someone starting out, please...

[@gatsbymovingrubber]

Wow the canda style is freakin dope

[@Box1ne]

5:26 "Here, here, here, Here Here Here HERE." LOLOL

[@LawkSam]

@strifetv True!

[@BboyCheno]

Good knowledge bro !

[@BboyAcademy]

In Canada, imean. ...was everybody (in Canada) doin that?

[@AlexKFseidan]

Very interesting, thank you brother!

[@i8myrice2day2]

@Statykbboy Profo volunteered to share the knowledge he knows in his point of view. He does make perfect sense of what he is trying to show/explain. I'm guessing you're one of those types that must have everything perfect. Respect Profo for his knowledge if what he is saying doesn't suite you then watch another video. Besides, you understood exactly what he meant about the different styles "note, they did show different bboys you can check out that had that style". C'mon man no reason to hate.

[@petree]

when i first heard about that cc elongated i was like wtf cause my crew knew these guys who told them! love living in the bay for that lol

[@seymourglass26]

Always hungry for knowledge. Thanks.

[@FLU1D159]

wooooooooooow mennn nice respect ....

[@BladeofAce]

[@BHBoi]

He knows his stuff

[@LawkSam]

the nauty one bit was out of nowhere haha

[@bboybeat319]

What is floor gangz? I mean are they an association, excuse mmy ignorance, I know who they are but I just whant to know exactly....thx

[@Tiny1Love]

Dope vid

[@GeNGiM]

oh yeah, I really like the style-based bboying - specifically footworks/floorworks

[@TheJrprotoman]

NYC style!!!

[@tuanffuf]

@The808swag So you're saying Wiggles didn't come up with threads?

[@Statykbboy]

@i8myrice2day2 i def respect Profo, he broke it down..My question is this, Is being part of a crew relevant to his knowledge?

[@YEYOBBOY]

COOL :D BBOY YEYO FROM MEXICO

[@i8myrice2day2]

@bboylego826 profo is a top dog footworks bboy dude... he's from floor gangz cmon now he knows what he's talking about.

[@TheLdoubleE]

@ALEXTESKI callus that could came from footwork, jackhammer, turtles, stuff like that.

[@TheKillae1]

that second instrumental...i want it. lol

[@TMFM1991]

Dope!!!

[@SleepingBear420]

Knowledge is EVERYTHING

[@Kaoculus]

@UAEbboy from what i hear, a lot of people don't approve too much of leg work in the traditional sense of footwork. lot of people will consider it footwork but since it isn't really composed of "steps" and more of sweeps and such, it won't count.

[@OntonSNC]

@The808swag Its true.

[@Statykbboy]

@robnasty i aint hating on him at all. i actually love and respect the fact that Profo broke it down to how much he knows..he def did his research.. i basically commented the fact on someone says "he's from so so crew im sure he knows what hes talkin about" guess what go ask yourself is that the right way to base a knowledge just because he from this and that crew..ofcourse not! I have no doubt Profo did his research!!! Big ups to Profo..

[@tuanffuf]

@bboylego826 Didn't mean to offend you by the question. Just asking since I've read up on wigglez being the first to make thread concepts and what not. Not trying take anything away from Supernatz.

[@theodore95tan]

WOOOOOO Canada rep.!

[@dynomattt]

And damn, at 5:27. Belts out a nasty footwork combo in stop motion.

[@gemmaharris5074]

The debate thickens..but at the end of the day the winner is Dance

[@aqtmeto]

Sharing knowledge!!! real bboy! peace

[@Bb0yEch0]

yo what is the tune that starts at 4:00, help a gut out thx

[@luphlele]

respect

[@bboypokeRpleyscrew]

posi esta super.....

[@dummy3300]

@UAEbboy na i dont think he means that i think he means because the judges were old school and like traditional NY style steps

[@YoOoitsJunsu]

Fresh!

[@unpleasantlol1357]

Yes repin th toronto style

[@rckl853]

@The808swag show us the real supernatural style. the world gotta know.

[@shiftybboy]

Knowledge3 I do the first two

[@ilyas404]

Canada baby!

[@MrRyushinn]

@NateZen My bad i meant Toronto crews need more shine that's all i'm saying. I'm just kinda sick of people associating Toronto/Canada with SNC. Because we got some dope ass crews like FAM and MEC. I'm a Toronto native so i just want to see my city exposed more to the international scene!
