I break, pop AND lock in Baja every chance I get. Last year, I threw down some cardboard squares just outside Coco's Corner and break'd for like, 3
hours in the noon-day sun. This year I am planning a trip to Mag Bay to break/pop/lock in late November...probably the best time to really do "the
caterpillar" or a proper headspin along that stretch of coast.
I usually screen Breakin' and Breakin' II the first few nights of my baja trips just to get flowing, then robot till the break of dawn, from TJ to San
Jose, hip hip hop and ya dont stop.
Will someone Please Define "Break Dancing": I am not sure if it is that stuff done by someone called Jackson{is that his Name} or is that the same
Guy/or Gal that got run out of the States for Molesting Little Boys???
As I don't watch TV, listen to the Talk Shows, or read Time Mag. I must be missing something!!
Breakdance(media coined phrase), also known as breaking or b-boying, is a street dance style that evolved as part of the hip hop movement that
originated among African American youths in the South Bronx of New York City during the early 1970s. It is arguably the best known of all hip hop
dance styles.
Breaking is one of the four elements of hip hop, the others being MCing, DJing, and graffiti.
The most current trend in B-Boying has been suth of the boarder, where rogue hip hop pioneers have been driving to remote regions of the Baja
Peninsula to Break Dance, do the Robot, and headspin amongst the giant Cardons of the Vizcaino desert.
on a surf trip last winter, just north of Catavina, I saw 12-15 teenage Mexican kids standing on a couple of cardboard squares, beneath a few massive
cardons, busting "el robot" to some old skool beats. Understandably puzzled, I pulled over to ask what was up...apparently they were two groups of
kids from rival desert towns (or maybe GN?) who gather in the desert on weekends to settle disputes - not with their fists/knives/guns - but with a
good old fashioned Brooklyn-style "break-off." Their moves, however crude, showed some promise and, despite the odd flare-up, the contest appeared to
be fair and peaceful. I watched for a few, threw out a vintage "Bula Ai!" and got back on the road.
I've since heard of folks seeing similar scenes all over - not only in Vizcaino but elsewhere: Mag Bay area, Puertocitos, East Cape (Cabo Pulmo) and
near Mike's Sky Ranch. Interesting how cultures bleed.
they do have a sort of team here and they have the rappers to go with it...i hang out with some of them so if you want to schedual a duel i'm the one
to call!!!!

Break dancing and rap music is banned in Baja. You'll be fined 150 pesos and three lashes with a rubber hose in some dark back room. Seriously...
Now.....the real music:
Well, East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the Southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I'm down there
The Midwest farmer's daughters
They all make you feel alright
And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls
The West coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a French bikini on Hawaii island
I'm lost by a palm tree in the sand
I been all around this great big world
And I've seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but I couldn't wait to get back in the states
Back to the cutest girls in the world
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.
My favorite was doing a back spin from a maniac or after an intense nickle (windmill) while holding my privates. I used to also jump with one foot
into the clasped hands of a partner and be able to back flip from it. I had a solid uprock and okay foot work. We used to battle quite a bit.
I once busted moves out by the pool at the El capitan to try an impress some females from Tecate...
