Breakdancing is awesome. The old school stuff especially makes me laugh. This 30 something guy i work with used to be part of this crew called the Super Breakers or something (1981). They all had shiny jackets embossed with their name. He shows me all these old tricks he used to do. I love it. My favourite stuff is the toprock? stuff, with those real elastic band movements.
Apparently, its called Breakdancing, because in clubs when there was a break between records, dudes would just get down on the ground and start pulling these funky moves. Its also been suggested that James Brown is responsible for the start of the whole movement with his crazy on stage antics.
Yeah, it requires heeps of fitness plus strength. And yeah, be careful with those head spins dude.
