Vegas Shakedown 10 is on its way and is becoming a very large event in both the Vegas scene and even the Utah scene. The Las Vegas scene has a very large and inviting scene. Vegas seems to be the center point for many mid west areas including California, Colorado, Arizona, and Utah. These events pull Bboys from all these regions into one location to battle and jam. The Vegas scene is really well known for the strong competition and drive they have for Bboying. You have a large array of amazing Bboy crews. These crews include Battle Born, Knucklehead Zoo, Full Force, Rock Steady Vegas, and even young strong crews like Runaway Tribe.
Another strong driving force to this scene is a man by the name of Vee. Vivek Narang is the one that runs the Vegas Shakedown events and really helps put the scene in a good position. Running an event like these is very difficult and for someone like Vee to really put the effort into strengthening the Bboy scene, he must be commended for that.
This not only affects the Vegas scene but it really affects the Utah scene as well. There are four crews that are registered for this particular event that are all Utah based crews. This is really great for the Utah scene because it pushes the Bboys here to grow stronger and push themselves beyond the state.
Though going to Vegas Shakedown is a little more difficult for those just wanting to watch an event like this, footage is generally posted on youtube the following week. Here are some clips of the older Vegas Shakedowns.
