This is the closest to the Ska dancing I used to see in So Cal in the '80's. I love seeing it. Thanks for making the video!

@@pigmeatishambaconThanks taking the time to correct me! I forgot that! So I looked up UK Skanking this morning and it made me so happy to see a few more videos with dancing close to this one. I really miss it and I think it’s so awesome and fun! Hope your day goes as well as my morning has- and any more correction and advice- I’m waitin’!

Curtains drawn for that one I see mate? lol

Sam Gledhill yer but then posted it on here

This Kids's got the moves...........I say that for 2 reason's: He's moving to the music.(it looks natural) And most important** He's dancing like me, albeit ,,,about 30 years ago!! Rocksteady my friend and thumbs up!

This is pretty much how I learn't to skank in the school yard around 79 (UK 2 Tone). If you watch carefully, the most important part of this style of skanking is the little pause/pull-back that matches the ska rhythm. That part seems to be missing in some of the other skank videos, which just look like basic kicking without it. I was out recently with some of the younger ones from work and the band played some ska songs, so I started skanking. I don't know if they knew what the hell I was doing but I was the only one doing it. Got clapped at the end tho :) This guy is very good and I think I'll add a couple of his cool extra moves next time I get the chance :)

ignore all the negative comments, this is great - really enjoyed it - real authentic looking ska dancing reminiscent of madness and specials etc in early 80s - great moves - keep it up!

This is so good. In an odd way, watching it makes me feel happy about the UK.

I've watched a lot of videos of people skanking and this is one of my favorites. Hope you don't mind if I link to it once in a while.

Awesome! Congratulations. It's great to see a guy with rythym on the dance floor. I bet the ladies love it. Practice , practise and more practice leads to popularity on the dance floor, as well as being good exercise!

ahhh mate you made my day, love the moves and the music

Best ska skanking video I've found on the internet so far -- actually displayed some talent!

Nice job bro - the transition from .14 to .17 is priceless

Brother, this is awesome!!!

You feel the music, pal! Awesome moves! 🤟

Haha. Brilliant man. Never let them make you stop.

SO great!

best skanking ive ever seen!!! reminds me of the ska man

I know you filmed this nearly ten years ago, but just wanted to give you a 👏👏👏. Skanking caught popularity here in the stinky States in the 70s and 80s (I've always lived in California), and I can say without a doubt I wasn't skanking properly. I had fun anyway. Enjoyed your dancing!! You're adorable.

Dancing is a personal expression of how much you are enjoying the music! This is brilliant to see how much he is enjoying. Love it! Fuck the rest. THIS IS SKA ◽️◾️◽️◾️

So much fun, thanks!

Nice moves dude!! Awesome

This is so refreshing

You've got one of the coolest styles i've ever seen with skankin, keep it up.

UK style is very unique... i like it!

I love it!!!!

This is much more entertaining than it should be.

At first I was like “meh” but then I was impressed.

Love it!

Perfect!

This guy is Sweet! I like his style!

Well done! you made it in to my presentation on Ska. You win!

reminds me of madness and my friends and i dancing to their classic "one step beyond" in the streets of my city (cali, colombia) grat stuff man. keep on skanking.

I have been dancing ska for more than 5 years, I have to say is very hard to dance, but once you practice a lot ..to dance ska is like watching tv , you get use to it! hi from Tijuana!

Nice one mate - cheered me up no end!

that nutty sound! Muppett, love this! x

Yesss!!! just Great!

Fun moves, bloke got skillz.

fuck ya! being a raver and a junglist ska has always had a special place in my heart. takes me back to crusing on my skate and hitting up any spot that comes along my way. skanking >>> shuffling any day of the fucking week. cheers man.

This was nice man. I'm digging the style.

American Ska has it's charms, I like the brass in Streetlight Manifesto. But nothing can compare to the british second wave ska.

Not the track that I'd have chosen myself but i love your enthusiasm.

Top Top quality skanking!!

Good man - thanks for the memories
