I FreeStyle because that's the fun way to play - in fact I FS'd before I even knew what FSing was. See, when I started to play (years ago), there was hardly any DDR here in Dublin, and the dance machine was just a strange, lonely looking game. I started to play and immediately was hooked (we all know that feeling).
After I while I started to mess around with it, to do dance moves, bigger gestures, or hitting pads with knees or feet. Not much, but I was the only one doing it and it went down well.
Then (a few months ago) I found the online forums, and found that this was called FreeStyling. I wasn't inspired to it, it just came naturally - doing things for fun!
There aren't many FSers here (in fact, I think Adder is the only one besides me, and I haven't seen him in a while). I haven't got a signature move, but the one I've heard others mention about me doing is where I grab the bar with both hands, one foot on top of speaker stack, and the other stretched up so my foot is higher than the top of the lights on the machine. You need about a four-beat break to do that. _________________

Nobody more than me, though I kind of liked your last one better.
On topic, the only FS move I do is a really bad robot. Really bad. _________________

Oh, so you guys in Dublin usually play DDR with your hands ? interesting... could you post some vidz ?
....sorry, just had to say it
Anyway I suck at FS, I occasionally do some handplants or kneedrops when I'm on easier songs (less than 6 footers) or slide from Up to right on songs like Paranoia KCET or Trip Machine... But that's not really "style"... Wish I had some though |

Once upon a time I did Standard Candy Star on stealth doing a handstand through the whole thing. Although I got a big headache afterward and my arms were sore for about a week after that...but HEY, people loved it. _________________

I FS some times. I'm not good but I give it my all. Signature moves. Hmmmm. Let's see. Since I don't know what all the names of the moves are I'll have to explain it. When you play doubles and you kinda do a matrix walk but across the screen to the other side switching between the bars. Yea, that's my best explination. If someone knows what that's called post here and tell me. That is if it has a name. I wish freestyling didn't have such a bad rep around here. Is it like that around other places too? O, and don't pay attention to the signature. It needs to be updated.....Badly. _________________

I honestly don't believe I have a signature move when I freestyle. I just go and flow to the best of my ability.
I started back in the day around 2000-2001 ... downloaded vids of the internet of DDR freestylers ... A-Team ... Mel B. ... Kid Zero ... J Dogg ... hiDDenRage ... random Korean guys/girls ... Jenith ... DJ 8-Ball ... etc.
I watched them in massive AWE because I couldn't do what they were doing. But it inspired me to be like them, and if possible, surpass them. Stilll freestyling to this day.
I'm a mix of pop, lock, hip-hop, K-Pop, J-Pop, liquid, rave, & a pinch of breaker.
I only have one vid online, and it's my LTR performance from CBN last year hehe.
L8z!
