Is that really considered buckin? It doesn't really look like a defined style to me.
This guy here does a lot of the same movements but doesn't call it buckin. I see that kind of style a lot with the gliding and boogaloo-style arms but don't consider it buckin.

....that looks like some ol choreographed Hip-Hop R&B dance shit. His flavor is closer to Turfin, not raw ass Buckin.

More buckin from the M-town

turfin or buckin aint original dances anyway cuz most all the moves derive from good ole pop lockin and struttin. pop lockin originated in fresno,ca and breakin originated in the bronx. some of yall youngstas aint up on yall hip-hop history.

....Buckin doesn't come from Poppin, it comes from the Gangsta Walk. And there has never been a Poppin culture in Memphis.

OL' SKOOL Gangsta Walkin!!!
Early-90s video example of the Gangsta Walk evolving into G-Stylin/Jookin/Buckin. Buckin is not Poppin nor is it an "offshoot" of it -- it's a direct evolution of the ORIGINAL Gangsta Walk... born and bred in Memphis, Tennessee.
