My first recollection of Giz was i believe 98 or 99 at Shockwave nightclub this was battle of back2basix vs my boys from fragg illrockz .. But mann that battle was overshadowed by Giz in the cypher.. Def the highlight of my night!
Gizmo is magic on the floor. I remember you guys breakin on stage at the MCI talent show in like '93, it was amazing! Yo Flex, what's the black dudes name that used to break with you guys? He used to pull that string puppet/marionette move where his body went all limp...pure steez. Thanks for the posts. Peace
I was told by a friend of his that he once went to a hiphop club in 1995, only blacks there .. some people started breaking and Gizmo, Phillipino guy with long hair just started ripping everybody left and right, than he had to run for it cos the black dudes were gonna beat him up for coming to "their" hiphop club and acting "black" or whatever, hahaha..
@Johnny8109 The same thing happened to Evo from the UK , years ago. I heard the black guys there were telling him he had no right breakin, because he was white. Evo the went on to win the UK Champs Solo title 3 times in a row.
One of the best to ever lay sneekers to floors! Gizmo was without a doubt a true pioneer in Canadian Breaking culture, wish there was more videos out there of Giz & BTX
yo flex! whats up! i hope everything is going well with you. you guys were the shit back in the day. too bad you guys aren't around as much or maybe you are. kind of fell of the scene. still love the dance just getting old and my skills were never that good! lol anyways video is dope. you guys were the most original crew i seen when i first started out. is this dvd the same one as the vhs? vol 2? is there any bonus footage?
Rspect! Canada legend for sho! kids now days need to do more research less copying lol ;)
God bless!

I wonder why there aren't any canadian bboy crews in the international competitions...
Cause gizmo is from toronto, and there is some pretty kickass bboys in montreal and vancouver.

I heard someone say Remind got his style from Gizmo. I'm not saying I believe them, I just heard it. I'm one of Remind's biggest fans.
