It may sound crazy that I've been heeling 8 months and never tried crabwalk before, but the reason is simple: I tend to not want to confuse my old brain by learning too many new tricks at once, so if I'm trying to learn (say) 180s. . then during my practise hour I'll do them exclusively for the whole hour and again the next time and keep on doing them until I'm happy with them. . . for that reason I've never gotten round to crabbing until now. As it happens I think it took me about 2 months to learn 180s, and about 5 months to learn to Footy. . . so yeah, just getting round to the crab-type stuff.  Althogh I'm not entirely happy with the footy yet. . . so I don't expect my crabbing to progress much until I am: I've got to learn to footy better on my weaker leg, and to footy weave (preferably on both) - but I will do it. Sooner or later.
Obviously being the first attempt it won't be much good: I can see from the video that I'm doing many things wrong like leaning too far forwards etc, which is partly why I make the video, so I can learn from my own mistakes, and so I just wanted to share one of my practise vids, not sure why really, maybe just for posterity's sake, so I can look back in 6 months and see what it was like to be doing it as a crab-walk virgin lol.
Anyway, here it is. Obviously don't expect anything special for a first day.
