boty:

2. Incredible Syndicate (Geislingen) |
|
Headlines: |
the open air event took
place on a fair ground, the warm & sunny weather created
a nice athmosphere.
in the crowd were different b-boy circles with famous
southern b-boys like the "south side rockers" or "active
artists".
on stage the judges speedy, crok, paulo, carlos and tuff
kid first proofed their skills and competence.
then altogether 15 crews from all over southern germany
performed.
the first round was overshadowed by a serious knee
injury of "mauro" one dancer of the "bionics" crew after
doing air twists.
after different freestyle raps of "mc rené" and a rap
showcase of "spax" it was battletime.
in the first semi final battle "incredible syndicate"
won against"stylissimo" the second semi final battle was
won by the favourites and local heroes "rocking attack"
from stuttgart who battled against "the bandit crew".
the final battle between "rocking attack" and
"incredible syndicate" featured some incredible power
move combinations and one hand ninetynine variations and
finally was won by "rocking attack".
we feel very sorry for the injury of "mauro" and want to
excuse that it took so long till the ambulance arrived
to bring him to the hospital - hopefully he will get
better soon and rock the floor ! |

|
Headlines: |
14 crews came to battle
for the berlin b-boy championships and for the two
qualifying places for the national battle of the year.
two female guest crews, "first ladies" from berlin and
"wild baby crew" from moscow also took part.
the berlin title defenders "five amox" also took place
as guests cause they already were qualified directly for
the national battle of the year.
in the final battle the "five amox" won against "mission
impossible" which later on were disqualified for the
reason that it was a mixed crew consisting of different
crews and some of their dancers already took part in
other national battle of the year eliminations before.
for that reason both crews who were in the battle for
third place now are qualified for the national battle of
the year 2001.
"spinning locks" and "8 point 7" from berlin will
represent berlin city at the national battle of the
year. |
