jsmooth.. one of the top new school heads bringing the funkstyle crown back to the USA.. student of poppin taco.. also taught by Electric boogaloos.. amazing musicality (animation done to the music!) .. but the highlight of this clip is the finger tuts in the middle of the set.. he knows how to pace himself well and add variety and complexity in them.. !
