What Do You Do To Put On A Show?

even if you're not an all-star DDR player, I'm sure there's some flamboyance you like to throw in there for when you want to impress someone. for some it's AAAing Afronova, but it always depends on who your audience is. some people are impressed by psycho freestyling moves, and others are wowed by a crazy-fast song and steady stream of "perfect." knee drops, spins, robot dance during R3...whatever. maybe this is similar to the "what's your favorite trick" thread, but it's still a fun topic I think. everybody's got a different style, so post what you do that puts on a unique and interesting show. I honestly don't do that much...well I do a few stupid things like on the easy orion, I swing my leg over the bar while spinning a bunch of times (on the repeated down arrows)...and then onnnn...well drop out I end all intense-like...I think it scares people more than wows them...but whatever. anybody do any backflips? never seen someone do anything that crazy myself, but I'm sure it's been done.

hmm...what the hell is that link thingy up there? for "DDR" I mean...someone tell me how to destroy it...or else it will destroy my mind...but not really.

Note: the Edit button is your friend...

I just play the game. Around my area, I'm right in the middle of a wide spectrum gap of players. Those who are better are infinitely better (AAAs on just about every song), and those who are worse are generally at the bottom end of Trick mode.

This sounds a lot like a pre-existing thread, but I'm not sure from where...

well, just because you're in the middle of the spectrum, doesn't mean you don't have some unique thing you do. maybe you figured out how to do some section of a particular song backwards or something. consider this a thread for "signature moves," regardless of your skill.

I play off-beat songs like Trip Machine: Survivor on Heavy.

yeah recently I've been getting the hang of turning backwards and some small spins (frozen ray/ cutie chaser...really easy) so yeah that's fun stuff...anyway stream is impressive, yes, but I'm tempted to say odd rhythms are more interesting, because then you're really doing some interesting things with your feet and body, and it's pretty obvious you know the rhythms are are going along with the song (like so deep). the sound of your feet complements the music, and that's really cool.

so what's a rocker's jump? like pretending to play the guitar and throwing your feet up in the air behind you?

heh another fun thing which you could do to be silly/impress...that I've never really done...would be using the bar to kind of kick your feet in the air or something...or for the jumps, you could do random spins in the air landing in the right place...if you know what I mean.

another idea...

say you're doing a crossover, for instance left with your left foot, down with your right, and right with your left foot...and the next arrow is up...so what do you do? either you spin yourself or....swing your right foot all the way around to the up arrow while keeping your left foot in place. I've never done this, but it could be very cool...

people love fast songs. I'll play Sakura, MaxX or Max 300 when there is a good sized crowd (heavy, hidden). Another fun way to impress people is freestyle or do doubles...

Basically anything that involves me facing away from the screen (Frozen Ray spins, EotC jump sequence backwards). Currently trying to memorize Let's Groove heavy.

I usually just do a players best non-stop if it seems hard. Yesterday we had one that was Paranoia Survivor, Rhythm and Police, I do I do I do, and Max 300........I failed it right at the end of 300, but it seemed to impress people.
