  • Evo has been an inspiration to so many B-Boys, and if you've never seen him, or never seen B-Boying at its best watch this movie.
    In the late 1980's B-boying faded out of Britain in a haze of inglorious mediocrity.
    A few battle hardy teenagers kept a torch burning into the 1990's, awaiting the
    opportunity to shine once more.
    Amongst such legends as Street Machine, and alongside the mythical Storm and Swiftrock, a humble, quietly spoken B-boy emerged and so began the revolution.
    Evo obliterated his opponents with a mixture of style, musicality and incredible power. He won three world titles and the reputation of British B-boying was taken
    to a new level.
    The DVD will remain on sale, and we urge people to support independent film making by buying it, but in order to guarantee that this documentary gets the audience it deserves we have chosen to put it out there 'officially'; removing the need to make illegal copies of it! ;-[
    "The guy that inspired a movement." Lonestar "I always tried to be as fast as him... but it was impossible." Storm "We were inspired by what he did. It made what we do today possible." Vietnam "He had it all. He had power, he had finesse, he had style."

    It's awesome to see that some of the unsung hero's of the B Boy world from the UK aka Evo and Second to none are getting their recognition that they truly deserve. They held on to the art form when it wasn't fashionable in the publics eye anymore. Not caring about what others thought and taking it forward along with Swift rock and Storm in Europe from the 80's into the late 90's developing and evolving it bridging the gap that so easily could have been void. Massive respect and props for keeping the UK and European B Boy flame alive. Peace

    I was in a crew with Evo in the early 80's called Supreme Team from Old Trafford in Manchester. Evo was always killing it in practice, him and another guy called Paul Brown were the best breakers I've ever seen up close, a shout out to Dizzy Lee and Antonaki from Supreme Team from Lazy D. 👍😊

    16yrs ago I saw this guy on clips of my bootleg videos in Seattle Wa. AnD I always said that was the best bboy in Europe I have seen at that time and never found out his name and now I can put a name to that bboy now. Love learning history and I knew one day I would find out. Great video and history to take in. Classic:)

    It's incredible how well-rounded he is. He's got all four elements of bboying and more, and he's great at all of them.
