Ok, thank you very much for answering guys.

Boppin Tran what do you mean by breaking down knuckles and wrist better? You're probably right bro.

Tried to watch Salah's waving tutorial, but dind't understand most of the French, great video if you are French thou. Been tryin to watch Morax's tutorial.

TETRIS thank you very much for answering Fella, really preciate it from a such experienced popper as you.

For the Elbow, try swinging it out without moving any other parts of your body, which includes your hands staying still (When i say still i mean in all dimension like miming, don't move foward, backwards, left and right.... etc. Just rotate that elbow out! like a circle you know what I mean (the same motion when you turn a door knob, you see how your elbow bends outwards?)? and for the wrist i notice your fingers bent inwards (That means your doing TWO transaction instead of one, it confuses ur wave bro) when you go from knuckles to wrist. Just keep your fingers straight in my opinion when you do this. Your transaction between knuckle and wrist when finished should look somewhat like a 90 degree angle.

I hope this somewhat clarify, my ideas seem to be everywhere. If you want msg me bro and i'll try to write all organize like an In Class Essay

if you can. go to homeland every monday. after hittin up homeland for 2 months. youll have the wave down for sure. just practice and practice with people that know how to do it. that was the best way for me to learn. doing what your doing is a great idea. do it. and have people critique and tell you what you need to change or whatever.

keep it up man youlll have it in no time ; )
