This event was HEAVY, carlos took the win over mechanikool in the final, but there was some dope dancing overall and lots of variety throughout the whole jam. Dope exchanges after the comp too, was cool getting down with carlos and a couple other london heads, some craaaazy shit.
More people def need to come to the next jam up north, lot of people said since this one they're gonna try and get to as many more as they can.

ill rep oop norf for sure next time if poss! sounded dope matie!

however, for the sake of getting lockers attend, they do need to change the format of having popping & locking in the same battle tho.
if they want to maintain the "funk dance" format with lockers and poppers together, then they gotta play some locking beats at the very least!

if they dont fix up, there will be no lockers traveling to the event...and that is a shame for all!

maximum boost to them for putting on the event that wasnt bboy biased. a welcome change!

They did vary it to a degree, by the end of the quarters i think all the lockers were out so from there on it was just a poppin comp, i agree than next time they should seperate the two, not really fair on either party especially to the lockers and poppers who got a bad draw on music.
Other than that though, everyone I saw dance repped well, can't wait for the next one!
