Nowadays, he says "I missed!" when he sees his DDR video and got Great. He may try to get AAA. It's up to him.
I assume 'double stepping' is a step to back to center position then move. He does cross-overs but his leg is not enough long yet. So he does double step in some cases. |
I could definately see him AAA many songs, and it seems like he would easily be able to AAA light songs...
Double-stepping is when you you the same foot to hit 2 consecutive arrows, like using your right foot to hit up, right instead of using your left foot to hit up, and right foot to hit the right arrow.

Does it mean use right and left foot to hit 2 consecutive arrows like '<-' & '<-'? If so, yes, he currently uses left foot twice in this case. I showed him by stepping left then right for the situation. But he didn't agree. He says "my way is much better". 
I'll wait and see for next opportunity. |

No - it's more like this...
Consider this step pattern:
... 
........... 
...
If you double-stepped it, you'd do something like this:
L
... R
........... R
... L
L
But if you did a crossover, it would go like this:
L
... R
........... L
... R
L
Crossovers are the best way to do steps like those. When mastered, they're easier to do than double stepping.

Passing max 300 heavy by 6 years old!! Amazing!! Metal pad with a bar is reasonable but 6 year-old kid can do it?? Just amazing!!
Why don't you upload the video? It should be very interesting! |

double stepping isn't as bad as it seems, I hate crossovers so I find myself double stepping instead of crossovers alot. I really don't feel like double stepping is holding me back very much, I have passed like every song in the game execpt for LoM, PS, PSM, and PSMO. and I have also full combo'd HVAM while double stepping the whole thing. but crossovers will porbably help him out a bit more. but I will go now and watch his new video.
-Ditto out

Let's also not forget that he's five years old, and quite small. He might be double-stepping out of necessity because he's so small (Heck, I'm 22, and I can't even cross over very well at fast tempos). Crossovers are a useful skill if you can do them (I hate spinning and likewise double-step HVAM), but I wouldn't actually worry too much about it on Standard. |

I read a thread about double-stepping and crossovers.
I taught Ryota about crossovers using AA Bob's chart. It was very helpful. He tyied both double-stepping and crossovers to see which is better. I'll be watching him and advise which is better per each cases. |

Hi,

Just I uploaded his new video.
http://tzwada.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2006/02/ryotas_move_6_l.html
But this is taped before we met. After that, he started to play new songs. I'm telling the songs you gave me the list and about double-stepping vs crossovers. I have no doubt he'll show me his progress soon. |

Thanks! I recall his first play was some around when I became 4. So, it's been 1 year and 1-2 months.
He never score AAA, so far. |
