Crews
Like season 1, nine crews were selected in this season of America's Best Dance Crew, as opposed to last season's ten crews. The nine crews were not divided into the usual four regions (East, West, Midwest, and South), but each crew's banner still listed where each crew was from. It was also the first season that showcased a crew from the Caribbean. Team Millennia, who was eliminated during the season 2 casting special, returned this season as one of the nine official dance crews. This season also has a heavy cross-over with So You Think You Can Dance. Quest Crew's Ryan Conferido was a season 1 finalist, Hok and D-Trix (Dominic) were season 3 finalists. Also, clogger Brandon Norris of Dynamic Edition was heavily featured during the season 3 try-outs of SYTYCD and performed at the season finale. Judge Shane Sparks has also judged and choreographed for numerous seasons of SYTYCD. Also included are the Beat Freaks, which consist of a group of professional dancers, namely Rino Nakasone, formerly of the Gwen Stefani's Harajuku Girls, and Teresa Espinosa, formerly one of Britney Spears' dancers.

Famous quotes containing the word crews:
“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
