 Makes ya' wanna do head spins! |
| Representing the second most under-rated element of Hip-Hop ( the first being Graf Art ), The Official UK Breakdancing Championship delivers in spades. This video not only shows the heated nature of true hip-hop ( in the same way MC's and Dj's battle, and Graf heads compete to be kings ), it shows B-Boying is alive and thriving, not just within the confines of America, but across the globe. The camera work, quick as it is, capture all the movements of the various crews, though admittedly this approach seems akward at first. There is enough moments of amazing acrobatic feats that would make any hip-hopper get up off their chairs and say "OOOOOHHHH! ", yet this video is far from perfect. The music is dubbed over ( rather than use the original from the championship ), and it leaves something to be desired. And the battle between Germany and Denmark ,as it neared the end, starts to become over-stretched and tedious. I would have given this a solid Three stars, but I had to add another for that AMAZING battle between Japan and the U.S. ( a battle so furious that even the DJ exclaims "now THAT was a BATTLE! "-- also, peep veteran B-boy Crazy Legs and others on stage as they themselves are amazed at the incredible exchange of body rockin' moves ). At any rate, walk, don't run, and get yourself a copy of The Official UK Breakdance Championship, a worthy addition to any Hip-Hop collection. |

| This was pretty good. The previously mentioned fast cuts by the camera are present, but not as distracting or head ache inducing as made out to be by some. The music seems dubbed, but most of it is pretty good(old skool beats/scratching), but some of it doesn't fit in with the actual stuff going on onstage. As for the breakin', mostly amazing! Long sustained headspins, windmills, even some pop lockin'. The tape breaks down to crews showing their stuff in team segments, 2 battles between 2 teams, and a freestyle segment with individuals struttin' their stuff. You'll definitely find a crew or breaker here that you'll really like(the team from Denmark comes to mind)! Overall, very good. Buy it here as the price is comparable to most other places. The video has ads for other Manga releases too. |
 It's an ok, but you might like it |
| I bought this video for my husband and 2 boys and well to be honest the cameras (the people who recorded this) were moving all the time that it was giving us a headache. My opinion would be if you "really" want to learn/see breakdancing then get it but it isn't worth it. Looks like a dubbed video and mind boggling. |
