		Breakdancing became very commercialized during the 80's, and slowly died away from the massive media attention.
		Even a lot of the breakdancers who have flares have what I call "cheated flares" If you are doing real flares, you will face one direction always while performing your flares..if you see the b-boy changing the direction he is facing constantly while he is flaring he's doing an easier, cheated version of the flare.
