dip-jiving

A kind of walking or dancing that is like crumping in motion. This term was originally used in "Maniac Magee" but no one knew what it meant then. Its the most gangster you can get without being gangster. Just bend, cross your arms, maybe snap your fingers, and keep walking.

So i was sitting by the door at a St. Annes dance last Friday night, and these two girls from Station came dip-jiving into the room thinking they were all gangster.
