My little brother, Pablo Flores, was the first b-boy on earth to do multiple air flares, in 1998. Luckily, there were video cameras present the day he learned them at practice. Here's the footage, courtesy of Charles Montgomery of Climax/Soul Control.
The vast majority of today's b-boys, who aren't even aware of his existence, are unwittingly carrying on his legacy. We all miss him terribly. RIP, little bro.
