First guys of m180 at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="67">1:07</a> - <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="72">1:12</a> killed it :D Sick !! Both sicks crews !! This battle had so much energy and flavor!!
@erhsbboy That's where we disagree. Bite has lost some meaning over the years because the dance is so developed. Very few Bboys actually have moves that are completely original. It isn't like how it was 20 years ago when crews like Battle Squad kept developing new moves. The current age is more about refinement and sequences. As a result when a Bboy flips a move they deem it theirs. That sequence is what they call their own and that's why they'll call bite on it. Otherwise who can call bite?
@escierda I completely agree, I've watched alot of Rivers battles and their moves are always in flow with the music. Imo I could hardly see any musically in their sets this time.
@axiz177 Fair point but crew battles were originally battles with a few routines and bboys doing solo sets. I've seen many crews who just come out and do routines which sometimes covers up their actual individual ability. If you watch 'battle of the year' it has the showcase first (to show the crews routines) then the battles. When it came to routines Rivers won that hands down but there's no rule about if you do more routines you win, it's all about who's got the moves. Both crews were dope!
damn... crowds these days in the mid 2011's are wack as hell.. after seeing this again after few years it almost made me cry how hype the crowd was... good battle
@erhsbboy Plenty of people use the pose but not the entire movement. It's not that just. People call bite when they see their own stuff used by other people. Original or not you always show people that's what you're known for. How many times has Born called bite for a mill to sidechair spin? Plenty. Was he the first to do it? No.
Why were they calling bite on that move? Born isn't absolutely the only person who does that. I've seen alot of people do that same move where they roll out off of their backs or shoulders onto one arm.
mk900505 is right. They were saying he bit Born not Physicx. I suggest watching more of Born's sets to see what they were talking about before flaming someone without knowing where the move comes from.
is that bboy ducky in the crowd infront of th e dj that gets pumped up at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="37">0:37</a> and at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="206">3:26</a>? haha thats awesome
great vid but @ <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="239">3:59</a> was the hardest bite on born ive ever seen. That was a harder bite than the guy on youtube callin himself the next bboy born
well guys, judges who are alot more informed and more educated about bboying and people who have sacrificed more for the dance have said that Mind 180 are the winners. Occasionally, judges fuck up but i dont think they screwed up this time. Mind 180 is good. Riverz also did rly well. but Mind 180 was ill as hell.
