snake

It’s been a minute since I’ve posted something new, my bad.  Anyways, check out this cat, some of you may have seen him before some may have not.  As far as I know this was his only vid, but he RIPS it on this one.  He’s an incredibly smooth flow and clean style.  A lot of his arm roll moves look similar to the ones guys from Japan have been doing over the last couple of years.

SNAKE : Who or what inspired you to start freestyling?
