Recap of ABDC 

If you missed ABDC last night, shame on you! Last nights season opener of ABDC was a roller coaster of emotions. The show started off slow with a performance from Hype 5-0. The crew let their nervousness get the best of them, so they didn't perform as well as we expected. Their performance was followed by Heavy Impact and they started picking things up a little. It wasn't until Atlanta's own Jungle Boogie hit the stage, when the crowd and the judges finally woke up. The crews high energy and smooth animalistic foot work showed why they are one of the best. Poreotix and Static Noyze carried that energy on with some break through performances. The show however ended with a heart break when Atlanta's own Swagger Crew was sent home. The crew put their heart and soul on the dance floor, but that just wasn't enough for the judges. Even though they got sent home, we are still proud of Swagger Crew. "Swagger Crew!" "On Deck!"

Here are some pics from last nights highlights.

Representing for the east coast are Saltare, Blueprint Cru, and Static Noyze. Last but not least repping the west coast are Poreotix, Heavy Impact, and Hype 5-0. These nine crews are amazing and this season of America's Best Dance Crew will definitely be one of the best.

Take a look at some of the best routines from the top nine crews.

Swagger Crew

Swagger Crew is definitely the crowds favorite right now! Their comedic dance style and clean moves makes them stand out. It will not be a surprise if the crew makes it all the way to the finals.

Jungle Boogie

Jungle Boogie are animals on the dance floor! This group hands down will be a tough competitor for all the crews this season. Their swagger and confidents shines on stage. They just have to stay focused and they will make it to the end.

Saltare

Saltare was a huge surprise! The fuse of jump rope and dance makes them one of a kind. Even though their jump rope tricks were amazing, they will definitely have to step up their choreography.

Poreotix

You can only say word about Poreotix... HOT! Out of all the crews this year they are the most creative! The combination of comedy and dance makes them one of the tough competitors this season, but we shall see.

Heavy Impact

Heavy Impact representing for the big guys! They definitely surprised the crowd. Their smooth groove and unique musicality should keep them around in the competition.

Hype 5-0

Hype 5-0 smashed there routine! They came out hard right from the gate! They should have never been in the bottom 3! What was that about? They will rep hard though for Hawaii!
