Windmill (b-boy move)

The breaker rolls their torso continuously in a circular path on the floor, across the upper chest/shoulders/back, while twirling their legs in a V-shape through the air.

[1] The discovery of this move is credited to Ken Swift of the Rock Steady Crew from Bronx, NY.

The stab position helps to keep the hips up high which aids in momentum and execution of the move,[1] especially during the first rotation.

Accomplished breakers may stab to begin the windmill, but they will perform subsequent rotations unstabbed (sometimes called a "forearm mill").

There are many variations of Power Windmills, some of the more popular ones including: The Halo is a move similar to headmills and air tracks/air flares.

However, there are distinct differences in that halos employ the hands for a part of the rotation, the point of contact changes, and the swinging motion of the legs remains critical in generating momentum.
