[edit]Bellymill is missing in the list of the variations. --Salvatore Ingala 10:52, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
There are no sources for the claim that the so-called Black Kao Crew invented the windmill while there are plenty that attribute Crazy Legs of the Rock Steady Crew as the "discoverer." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.98.76 (talk) 07:29, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
- You may well be right. Do you have any sources you can provide here? Sorry for reverting your edits, if correct. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 07:36, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
If I listed all of them, I won't sleep tonight. Here are some, starting with Crazy Legs himself stating in an interview. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mu-xnSZCinU 3:56

No idea who the Black Kao Crew are/were. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.98.76 (talk) 07:43, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
The bots are still being revert-happy. Please validate your sources for this glaring error. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.98.76 (talk) 08:02, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
- Please feel free to add it again but please use WP:Citations - basically, put links next to it in <ref></ref> tags. The older bit was unsourced so really it shouldn't be being reverted back to; I'm sorry for the trouble. Tombomp (talk/contribs) 08:06, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.98.76 (talk) 08:08, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
The changes I've made are still being reverted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.98.76 (talk) 08:22, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
- They're being reverted because you're attempting to add YouTube as a source. YouTube is not considered reliable so you're gonna have to find something else. XLinkBot is designed to remove the link automatically and RC patrollers do the same. It might also help if you leave an edit summary explaining your changes because you wording (ie "the move was discovered") seems pretty dubious even if it's not.

Someone obviously thought it would be funny to change the history of this move to originate from Soulja Boi. Please respect the correct sources and change it back to Crazy Legs of the Rock Steady Crew. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.69.98.76 (talk) 04:31, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
Airtrack vs. Airflare
[edit]The two moves are 100% identical. There are some variations to the Airtrack but it is always an airtrack. When someone calls it an Airflare, it is also the same thing. Historically Airtrack was more popular than Airflare as a name, see this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8WZqGxokOM 84.112.136.52 (talk) 01:00, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
Airtrack
[edit]"You use only your hands and you hop from hand to hand in somewhat of a circular motion." "Some say that Air Tracks have the body traveling only on the X axis, while with an Air Flare the body travels on both X and Y axes."
It is physically and mathematically impossible to only travel on a single axis while in a circular motion. Try drawing a circle while only staying on the X-axis.
