Breakdancing question?

Question

Why am I supposed to only use the "finger parts" of my hand when im doing the steps (6 step, 3 step, etc.)?

Y am i not supposed to use the palm of my hand?

Explain to me plz (does it make it look better? cause i just started practicing and im a bit slow atm BUT using my whole hand is a lot easier and comfortable than just using my fingers. But the website im learning from said fingers only when doing 6 step, 3 step, etc.)

Answer 1

your supposed to use your fingers only because it gives you more momentum but if you move faster with your whole hand than go ahead theres no rules to that but it takes time to get used to using your fingers but youll get the hang of it eventually and another thing your not supposed to use your whole hand is that you may at some point step on your hands and that may slow you down.
