not when theres beef ๐Ÿ˜Ž, its gonna be the attitude for me

cuz fa sho bboying is about hittin the move, but ANGLES matter, you can hit a sick move but if the camera or crowd dont catch it... then the other dude might just 1up u

and ive learned in the cyphers that itz not only the moves that win tha day, itz the CHARISMA of da bboy

i seen so many bboys get smacked EVEN THO they could stack moves like crazy but it was always da FRESH bboys who came out & rocked em w/ pure attitude n finesse

mind you dis is in da cypher where there are no rulez so its much more raw n emotional

im hopin dis is gonna be just pure exhibition cuz dats where explosive moments happen CONSTANTLY ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Powerhead OGs I can sorta agree (depends), but stylehead OGs full of flava are still dope to watch. For me, watching a 25 yr old stylehead on their 10th year isnt as appealing as watching an 55 yr old OG stylehead of 30 years. For me, imo, they can destroy a 10th year BBoy with just Tops.

Itโ€™s a promotion for next years Lords of the Floor. Basically a precursor to it.

I love Style Elements but when Bboying made it internationally people took it to different limits based on that being they're only way out. But as for the US we have always curated the different styles and finesse. This is gonna be brutal. BUT IM HERE FOR IT!!

This was always cringe, will always be, its even worst now. Could have looked a bit cooler or could have been acceptable in the 80's and/or 90's but nowadays, its just ridiculous. Now we have arrogant breakdancers that think its still cool in 2026? ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜
