Shinjuku and Bboy styling
Started the day by hitting out to Shinjuku to see what all the fuss is about. And my god was i impressed. It`s like the best example of the Japanese modernisation phenomenon. The tall buildings and amazing skyscrapers. The shops that are stacked one on top of each other and accessed by elevators. Went to the NS building which is a building which is hollow in the middle, has a huge atrium in the middle?@and a sky bridge on the 29th floor so you can get a great view down to the ground floor. Was pretty awesome and I dont think my description is really doing it justice. After that I hit out to Shinjuku park and took in some of the awesome Japanese style garden layout. After that I hooked up with Joss in the hostel and we had dinner on the top floor of the NS building then headed down to a spot Joss had found out about where local bboys practiced. Was nice to finally see Joss` style. It was pretty crisp and he had a good move set. But next to the Japanese guys it was pretty hard to step up. These kids had some really tight moves. Their foundation skills were impressive and they had some serious power to them as well. I threw down a couple of sets but nothing was gonna even compare to what the guys were doing. Was a good atmosphere and actually found myself remembering why i did breaking in the first place. Was awesome seeing these kids just throwing down in the street, really throwing themselves into it and not giving a toss about who was watching or who joined in. Real good place to be. Definately a high point of the trip.
