On Switching to Flatfoot

Re: On Switching to Flatfoot

I'm not too entirely sure on what's different between flat foot and the other styles, due to my being a Good newb. I can almost A Max Unlimited, and AA Rythm n' Police.

I know that when I do RnP, I don't bar rape, and I'm constantly crossing my feet over, (Right foot hits right arrow, then left foot hits down, then right hits left without my left foot moving at all). Would that be considered flat-foot or something else? :s Excuse my lack of knowledge.

And bar raping is OKAY, unless you do some really easy song, many good players ue the bar, I dont see how its possible for iamchris4life to do some of the stuff he does with no bar.
One person the is amazing with no bar would be pickles.

I don't think I need to "switch" to flatfoot, simply because my feet automatically make me play flatfoot when the song gets too fast to do with toes ><

Re: On Switching to Flatfoot

I play both :/

Kinda depends on the song though. Sometimes I use both for different parts of a song.

Most of the songs I play though I prance on the balls ov my feet. Also, I've noticed I tend to go flat footed when I'm knackerd lol.

Most people find that flat footing conserves your energy more.

I'm special though, and can move faster and conserve stamina more playing on toes. I only use flatfoot on slow **** that I want to PA because I can hear my footsteps a lot better.

Same with me.

Seeing that I still haven't learnt crossovers lol I usually have to use the balls of my feet as I find I can double step a lot quicker that way.

Your right though tibs I sometimes start flat footed on slow starting songs so I can store energy for when their song picks and I get on my toes.

Re: On Switching to Flatfoot

Well I think I've figured it out. I got to play DDR on at an arcade yesterday and I found on faster stuff I would hit the down arrow with my heel just by stepping partially on the bracket. I think my problem on my CF is that I don't have the brackets to guide by.
