Hand keyed animation, animated with Character Studio in 3DSMax. This is from the breakdance game prototype I worked on. I animated moves in segments and put them together with transitions and lots of tweaking.
Before this project, I had no knowledge of breakdance. I watched lots of video and even took breakdance class.

Last threading sequence is taken from Bboy Ronnie from Full Force Crew. He has amazing skill. Also, very animated interaction during battle and fun to watch.
