Description
A tribute to Frankie Manning ambassador of Lindy Hop. Surely one of the most important dancers in the world of Swing and, for those who have been lucky enough to know him, an example of humility, sympathy and passion for life. Frankie takes his first steps inspired by the first generation of lindyhoppers, led by George “Shorty” Snowden and Leroy “Stretch” Jones, and then acquire his unmistakable style that will allow him to defeat his masters in the fierce dance competitions that took place at the Savoy. He traveled the world until his death bringing the swing everywhere becoming a source of inspiration and point of reference.
Foot measurements directions:
Foot length is more accurately measured when standing directly on a ruler or measuring tape.
Make sure you measure from the furthest back/central part of the heel to the end of the longest toe.
Foot width shall be measured by wrapping a measuring tape around the widest part of your foot, usually where your bunion joint is. Ensure you have your full weight on the foot for accuracy.
You may want to repeat the whole measuring process a few times to confirm your measuring results.
