www.thesnuffgrinders.com: Crew of bboys, capoeiristas and Norwegian acrobatic dancers based in Oslo. The old Norwegian dancers used to spin on their head 100 years ago, calling it to grind snuff (tobacco.) This move is also done in capoeira and breaking, ergo the name. In the movie: Bboy Arctic (Knut Eric Rundereim), Bboy Lucky Lars (Lars Aastebøl), Sua Phimsim Rusten, Torkjell Leira, Torkjell Børsheim, Ulf-Arne Johannessen, Andras Ljones and Andreas Bratlie. Choreographed and directed by Hallgrim Hansegård (www.laus.no) from FRIKAR dance company (www.frikar.com) and composed by Ljones. Light design: Lars Erik Bratlie.
