UK BBoy Championships - US Crew wins; BGirl sets Guinness World Record for 71 headspins in 1 minute!


At the Sony Ericsson B-Boy Championships in London on October 11, 20 year-old Roxy Milliner (aka B-Girl Roxy) set a brand new Guinness World Record with an astonishing 71 head spins in 1 minute by a female break-dancer.

The event was hosted by the original founder of B-Boy, 24-year veteran Crazy Legs and was won by US crew, Skill Methodz after 8 rounds of gruelling, high-energy break-dance battles. The UK crew, the Soul Mavericks (which has B-girl Roxy as a member) battled their way through the first round and won over the 5,000 strong crowd with their flares and freezes but failed to take home the coveted title. Morris from Flex Flav (a crew that auditioned for ABDC 4) won the UK Champs Solo Competition 1 vs 1.

BBoy Championship TV also has a number of videos worth checking out, as does the video viewer I linked to earlier.
