I don't know about everyone else but I skip a lot. (Hence the name) And I mean I skip whenever I get the chance to, on the street. at the mall... It's just fun and without a care if someone's watching or not, because it's funny and you're acting like a nut, no one's going to bother you when you play on the pad too E15.gif Anyway I was wondering if any of you guys skip. I believe it builds up good balance and lets you move quciker with your feet. E4.gif If you don't, give it a try, builds some more endurance if you do it a lot...and I mean a lot E13.gif

Mabye, but it's better than some of the other stuff in here recently.

I don't skip, but I make sure that my feet are going to go at the right tempo before playing a song.

Nah, my pre-game warm up is doing 10 sets of stairs. (1 set = going up and coming back down)

Stairs...skipping...kinda gives SSR a whle new meaning. E10.gif

I don't really skip, but before my first game or two of the day, I bounce from left foot to right foot, tilting my body only slightly to change feet.

Skip? I don't beleive I do, but, before everygame, I kneel down on my toes up and down. And on the pad, before the song starts, I remind myself how the steps go, so I practice the steps on the pad.

I agree, lately all the topics have been pretty bland and kind of boring. Come on guys!!!! Talk about interesting things.

I skip all the time, to work, on campus, on a dance mat. Skipping is the way to go, sure beats the hell out of running.

Actually i skip all the time. But people laugh at me cuz it looks funny when a big guy skips. Anyways i skip and hop around and stretch before i play. i like skiping especially at dangerously fast speeds down hill.

Well, that's kinda funny... I actually do skip and hop a little just before a song begins... Somewhat like Rabbit (Eminem) does at the beginning of "8 Mile", when he's in the bathroom, psyching himself up for his battle rap.

I skip down the stairs to the basement where my Playstation is with my DDR. I stretch a little bit before I play too. I love skipping (especially when I'm skipping class riiight.gif ) j/k
