   If you think the #Slickback move or challenge is the original, think again. A year earlier, in 2022, it was started by Jubi and called it the #JubiSlide float.

   Like many popular challenges and "games"/"toys" this year 2023, it was a rediscovery of a younger generation and revitalised it under a new name.

     @youronlyone That dance move has been around a lot longer than last year. I was watching Melbourne shuffle compilation videos 15+ years ago where kids were doing those same steps as part of their shuffle routines.

     Jubi probably didn't know about it when he made his dance challenge because shuffling comes out of a pretty specific subculture that existed before tiktok and what not so I'm not faulting him for taking credit for the challenge. Just clarifying that the move has been around longer.

     @Erzbet Oooh! Much appreciated. Yep, it's hard to find out content these days, especially before tiktok. (Even text search is so challenging if earlier than 2012.)

     Interesting though the dance step got twice the attention of today's tiktok generation.
