Baldy67 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Yeah Smac 19 were the best if I'm honest, but seen as I went out with a member of 'Street Crew' for a while, I'm a bit bias to them! I have a video of them all (that I recorded off the telly in '85! LOL) when they held the Calendar break dancing comp at Nelson Mandela building in Pond Street. There's just about every Sheff breakdancer on there either in a crew competing or in the crowd! I went through a phase a few months ago, playing it to see who I could spot from back then! My lad is into street dancing and I got the video out to show him that us 'oldies' have been there and done that one! And he was well impressed LOL! Those were the days! Still see quite a few of the lads from back then and they haven't changed that much (well some of em!) Hi footiefreak, any chance of uploading that video please? I could probably point a few out to you as i used to live nextdoor to Carlos and Andre from Smak19, i used to watch them practising on their back garden with the rest of them. Their older brother Denton was a podium dancer on Top of the pops aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindlessfish Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 hi all! has anyone ever heard of a crew called scratch mix?? my boyfriend claims to have been an 'amazing' breakdancer in sheffield back in the day, and I am dying to find some footage! would have been mid 80's as well. haven't seen the crew mentioned above though, he says their name changed a lot...sounds a bit like an imaginative crew to me, which would explain his dodgy breakdancing skills please let me know if you know anything! btw, what's this about tv footage??? anyway to upload that on here?

And, joining the clamoring masses on here, I would so love to see your video!! is there really no way? filming the tv screen with digital cam maybe? his 38th birthday's coming up and it would be such a perfect present... in any case, now i know they really did exist I will scour the internet! thanks!

olddayz Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Blast from the past! I remember scratch mix and the was scratch attack too. One guy had the fastest turtle in town! They were some of the young ones back in the day. Think they were both on calander outside the old roxy club. I remember the limit on west street too. smac19, steel city breakers and full force crew were older guys, remember yellow man the bendy popper and spanner who was wicked at locking.
