I stopped watching when feminism was mentioned..

@@thatcarguy6190 I think we shouldn't be so radical. The film is not about it.

@@RL-mm8ju lol and likewise i think the film shouldn't be so "Radical" Ironic really.... 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks for the kind words brother.

@@thatcarguy6190 I'm sorry you got upset about that. It's not about feminism (I'm pretty sure that word isn't actually mentioned int eh film, I could be wrong though I did write and direct it) it just leans into a bit about how its included as a gender inclusive sport, its nothing to get your panties in a bunch about.

Sbow us ur old videos airflares

@@ricHarder can u see what I wrote cause I can't see my response anymore? Anyways it's on tavla86 real deal family 2:33 I checked it now

​@@ricHarderdid u find it cause I wrote a long comment before the last one and it seems like it just disappeared ??

Its black culture not breaking dancing

@@1on1AllstarsGamesB-boying is more of a Latin American culture, graffiti was predominantly Anglo Americans, DJing African American, and rap was an African American thing when combined with the other 3 elements. The only thing that connects the roots of the 4 elements of Hip Hop is America.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, it's greatly appreciated. I think the radical changes are possible. Red Bull BC ONE has more than 3,5 million Facebook fans, surpassing more established sports such as the World Athletics (2,5M fans) or International Handball Federation.. I am not talking about Curling or Water Polo... That's not surprise, Breakdance is spectacular sport and this market is undergoing a stage of commercial transformation right now. Some street subcultures, such as skateboarding, surfing, have already passed the commercialization process.

I wouldn't be surprised that parkour made it to the Olympics. They already got American Ninja Warrior and that is basically parkour and calisthenics. A lot of people watch that

​@@bboyStuntZObstacle courses were a thing in military before even "Parkour" was coined. So it has high chance of growth all over the world if it becomes an Olympic sport. France would definitely push for it since they would get brownie points for inventing that sport.

I think the main reason is that coolness factor dies down once it becomes too wide spread. Somethings are only cool because they're niche. Skateboarding has become an Olympic sport and as nations start competing professionally like athletes do in other sports, the sub culture associated with it gets removed or changed. It's not some cool rebel culture anymore.

@@gabbar51ngh You already know

So havving an equal number of competitors is a bad t thing?

There’s not an “equal number” of competitively good XX’s in breakdancing. We have eyes 👀’s. No one wants to see a bunch of watered-down power moves with freezes.

Right!) But that's great, Breakdance is very spectacular sport + at last dancers will start earning money.

We use different terms like Breaking, Breakdancing, and rarer Bboying or Bgirling.

@@STEPPIX it's never been called bgirling.. I understand breakin thou..

Yes but google Breaking and try to find something relevant.

@@STEPPIX If You google "Breaking" now you'll see "breaking news", "breaking bad" and "breaking olympics". You should educate but not continue to confuse people. In the past breakdance (or weird word "breakdancing") include breaking, popping, boogaloo, locking, robot, kingtut. Now we have only breaking as synonim of breakdance, and many pro-dancers try to cancel word "breakdance" as old ancient termin, using only "breaking". But ordinary people are far from all of that and still think about breakdance like in the old days. They sounds similar, but has different meanings. If the video is called "breaking of a new era", then the title needs the same.

@@AlekseiLight Thanks for your strong opinion. We still use both terms - Breaking and Breakdancing, no crime in this to my mind.

Heehee

Hi bro, thanks for your interesting opinion! Serfing, snowboarding, bmxing, skateboarding have already gone through commersalisation process and do you think athletes suffers? + I don't think Hip-Hop is a sport.

@STEPPIX breaking has become more gymnastics than dance in my opinion ..I seen it go from Rock or uprock to a level that is amazing

@@STEPPIX A 'new era' is just basically saying 'it's ours now and we'll redefine it in a way that suits us', it's that (undeservedly confident and ambitiously tone-deaf) modern mentality that's killed the heart of the dance and separated it from its heritage, look how she (yes 'she') claims there's a feminist movement happening within the dance when - though there were always a handful of Bgirls around - the dance was primarily a male space and understood to be so, a tool to channel aggression creatively, like boxing, providing mentorship, apprenticeship etc. giving young men from poverty who were in many cases academically challenged or from bad domestic situations a sense of belonging, focus and esteem I've been around the dance for over 40 years, heavily active between 1982 - 2002, I saw how in the late 90s how all the old guard were ousted by the young ambitious 'dance teachers' that came and learned from them, I saw how they fiercely networked to gain funding to create their own soul-less events, how they courted corporations and dismissed/looked down on those who built this before them who saw the writing on the wall and tried in vain to maintain certain standards/ethics/unwrittens to preserve the wider culture, I heard the 'I'm not a 'Bboy I'm a this or that' from the lips of the highflyers in the scene preaching their disconnect from the culture, I saw the trailers of the latest hot guys with their EDM/Kpop soundtracks, I saw how the videos of the events were now being dubbed over with repetitive braindead copyright-free 'breakbeats' (which eventually replaced the original music we danced to altogether), eventually I saw it evolve from a scene where everyone once came together under one roof with one feeling to being in a Bboy jam feeling like I had nothing in common with practically everyone there, and now what? a dance that's been so prized away from the cultural herd that it's open to opportunists to nail whatever their political/gender cause flag to, an organic street dance that's now owned by Red Bullsh.. and Wack-donalds So now it's going to the olympics, and that wil be seen as progress, to who? maybe to those who benefit from that, back in 1984 the NYC Breakers challenged the US olympic team, but it wasn't just hubris it was these street guys saying we have everything you've got FOR FREE without needing to pay for your specialised equipment or jazzy arenas, it was a statement of a heart and soul operating outside of corporate control Am I bitter? I was for many years but you can only mourn the demise of something for so long before you just have to accept that what was the original beauty of something is never coming back and move on with your life Those who made it this far reading this will probably not like or get what I'm saying, most won't have even been born at the time when this dance was what it was, I can't/won't blame anyone for that, you do you and god bless but as far as I'm concerned I lived and loved the best times of the dance which - no matter how much money you throw at it will never be replaced
