UNBREAKABLE 2010

The Bboy Spot Europe recently attended this jam and here is our short report on how everything went.  The event took place in Leuven, Belgium on March 20^th, 2010.  There may have been over 1000 attendees at the jam, making it probably the biggest bboy event in Belgium.  Besides the major and most attractive 1 on 1 Unbreakable World Championship that took in the evening, there were a number of other competitions during the day such as 1 on 1 Bgirl battles, Kids battles, Circle Princ qualification, and a Eurobattle qualification, which was taken by Rugged Solutions from the Netherlands.  Daytime competitions were accompanied by workshops with bboyz like Thesis, Kleju, or Gracie, that concentrated on different aspects of bboying, from toprock, footwork, go downs, thru musicality, transitions, freezes, to blow-ups, and power moves. 

The event took place in a sport arena with a setup stage, allowing everybody in the audience to clearly see what was going on at the battlefield.  For the evening 1 on 1 championship, the following bboyz were invited:

Thesis (USA)

Flying Buddha (Russia)

Nasty Ray (USA)

Bruce Almighty (Russia)

Kolobok (Ukraine)

Gracie (Spain)

Slav (Bulgaria)
