man very very close if only thesis did a little bit better in his second set it would have been a tie. But I think these judges are giving more points for dynamic vs beat hitting. Thats why Neguin won. Their first set was pretty much tie but neguin did more dynamics in the second while thesis did more beat hitting. But man close battle respect to both dope ass bboys.
IMO tie though Thesis is normally way sicker then this, but he is constantly changing it up and tryn new things. Neguin was.....well Neguin, nothin new, just sets done with speed and precision.
@expiredperson Even Thesis himself would disagree with you. If you think that Neguin was "just jumping around", then you need to prehaps check your eyes.
I'm not sayin' that thesis is weak cause he is not ofc... But when you watch his variations of treads and grabs, every single set is like "Duh... i saw that already" he should show so more foundations
Man, the biggest differnce between Thesis and every other bboy is, that Thesis isnt freestyling. His whole set is a combination of lots of other little combinations. Nothing against combinations... hell no but those combinations should only sometimes be done in a solo. If u dance free u dance a lot more to the music...
In my opiniong thesis lost, thesis didnt do much to catch my attention except for the beggining but it was all down hill after that, b/c neguin just killed it after thesis' first set.
@sirshaunathan : Yeah Neguin did hit plenty beats, but nothing on the level that thesis hit. Thesis hit pretty much every beat his second set, and neguin only a couple beats were hit, even his ending didn't hit beat (of course in my opinion) however he was more dynamic. So I can say this was favored more in the dynamic aspect. My opinion of course. Every judge gives more props for certain things. A power head might give more props for power than a styler will.
If id known a quick six step to a roll back would take it i would have entered my kid sister.. thesis didnt look as entergetic wich was the only flaw i noticed..
Neguin only won because he had the perfect set of judges.. all foundation lovers... none of which represent abstract bboying... it's a shame for thesis' sake..
