Beatdown Productions ICE BREAKERS 2

 Kicking this article off with a little  media play  of a sick break battle in the dead of winter! Courtesy of the one and only Beatdown Productions Ice Breakers 2 is the much anticipated sequel to the original Ice Breakers event that smashed the 413 last year!

The Line up was different this year...No DJ Knowledge this time around but, there were three dance areas and over 20 DJ's!!! The waterfront was packed again this year! I began  receiving texts early on that the break contest was in full effect and I was running late (as usual) I scurried to get parked and in the door A.S.A.P!

DL Breaks pumped dope thumps out while dancer after dancer took their turn showing off their skillZ! Many breakers & poppers were present from the 5th Element Dance Crew! Black and white logo shirts littered the area, is was very clear that they came to break the ice!

Familiar faces littered the venue! Energy flowing within perpetual flow! What's the difference between break circles in the 80's & 90's to today? Most dancers are entrepreneurs now, equip with business cards in every pocket! I constantly hear people say.. " I had no idea break dance still existed " Really? Is the mainstream that out of touch with reality? It seems so! Mainstream trends are not enough to wake the sleeping giant! In the mean time these dancers there to put  in work!

Dance floors  have transformed  into  mobs of head nods and fist pumps! Freak shows of fashion and lots of toys! That has always been a part of our culture but not all it is made of. Some of us really enjoy dancing! The art of underground! Big Thanx for big vibes! The 5th Element Dance Crew was out in force. One after another bringing it to the break! Everybody was on point~

Cold night, hot party!  Hoping to see another event like this again soon!  Action packed dance floor all night! Video and stills courtesy of Naomi Gonzalez! Nice work!
Beatdown Productions, once again my very own 413 rippin it up! This event was about the dance!Thank You :)
