    It’s over, top 3:

    1st choreo cookies
    2nd the company
    3rd kaba Modern

    dont know what DVP united got but being there and performing on that stage for Australia is a win in itself!!

  5. Drumstick says:

    ah you beat me to it rob! :)
    Yeah I can’t wait to see the footage!

    I liked Spike’s Facebook status though: ” If we win, we win. If we lose, we drink. If we drink, we win.”

    Hey guys!! Michelle reporting from San Diego, the competition was amaaazing, everyone’s jaw was on the floor, especially by the end of Choreo Cookies. A lot of people thought 2nd and 3rd placings were questionable. A lot of people thought Common Ground and Formality were deserved of those rankings.

    Everyone was SUPER friendly and down to earth, we saw/talked to heaps of true inspirations like Mari Martin, Shaun Evaristo, Erik Saradpon, Keone Madrid etc…

    DVP United got an average score from the judges of 83.7, with Ronnie from Super Crew scoring us the highest score of 92 Woooo!!!! Not exactly sure where that leaves us standing ranking wise, but I’ll try and find out ASAP. We’re on such a high!!!!!

  7. Drumstick says:

    oh SWEET! thx for the update Miche!
    gaaaah I wish I was there :(
    Ronnie = Legend :)

    Party it up and soak up as much as you can! can’t wait to see you all when you get back!

  8. Whyteflame says:

  9. Lucky says:

    hey all! sorry your posts weren`t getting through. I`ve got heavy spam protection and the system assumed it was spam because of the link. All good now! I can`t add it to the playlist yet though coz I`m in a short time internet cafe in Japan :s
    can`t wait to see you all again soon!!!
