Freehand: Creating "Style"

 

 


After you learn some moves you will learn how to link them together into basic combos. The more you practice the more variation you will begin to find in the combos that you construct. The way that you put these combos together, as well as the way that you move your body, will slowly begin to change and set you apart from other freehanders. Most people call this "style".

If you watch videos from a few experienced freehanders you will find that most of them look different from each other. It should be most peoples goal to distinguish themselves stylistically from other freehanders out there. If you are having problems with this then just give it time. Most of the experienced people that you see here in videos have been glowsticking for well over a year.

If you have been glowsticking for a while and have just hit a block then these links might help you out in your progression.
