VIDEO: HOW TO LONGBOARD DANCE
HOW TO cross step
THE FOUNDATION OF LONGBOARD DANCING
- Stand in your regular stance.
- Move you front foot back towards your back foot and keep your knees bent!
- Slowly, bring your back foot out and around your front foot.
- Then, slowly bring your other foot back and around in front of your other foot.
- Open up your stance again by bringing your back foot back into your regular stance.
- Bonus tip: try it on the grass and really exaggerate your leg movements.
HOW TO pirouette
spin around your own axis
- Stand in your regular stance.
- Bring your front foot back a little bit.
- Twist your front foot slightly, in the direction you are going to spin.
- Bend your legs and wind up your shoulders.
- Start turning and decompress your legs (taking weight off your feet a bit!)
- Plant your back foot on the board to stop your spin.
- Bonus tip: keep your eight centered on the board and try to decompress straight up!
