Crip walking is not a dance, its a movement of skills, and talent. Try looking at this site, its short but you will get an idea of it.
I suggest you don't attempt to do this, only the pros, and the rap listers do it. The dance has nothing to do with gangs, this movement was infulenced by break dancers.

The Crip Walk, or C-Walk, is a dance that originated in the early 1970s in Compton, a poor suburb of Los Angeles, California, (popularly referenced in rap lyrics). What began as a symbolic dance in the early 1980s in South Central Los Angeles, soon became a staple of hip-hop dance in the late 1990sOriginally, members of the Crips would use nimble movements of their feet to spell out their names or other Crips words (sometimes spelling out Bloods, the name of their rival gang, and then crossing it out). Many Crip gangs also use the C-Walk to celebrate the initiation of a new member. It is also believed that the C-walk was used as a warning, for example in the build-up to a robbery: The lookout would stand outside of the store and act as surveillance, while the robbers would await the signal—the C-walk. Typically performed to West Coast gangsta rap and G-funk, the C-Walk first hit the mainstream when rapper Ice-T performed it on stage in front of cameras in the late '80s. Later, rapper WC would follow suit and add to its popularity; however, he clearly let the public know that this was not a dance, as "gangstas don't dance", and that it was only meant to show love to other Crip members.1 The C-Walk was censored in the video of Snoop Dogg's hit single "Drop It Like It's Hot".

It is a new form of 'dance' that is done with flat feet and sideways, back and front 'walking'. It is not hard and you can YOU TUBE it and see it. Search for "Cwalk" or crip walking.
