Boogie Frantick vs Kite SEMI FINAL Popping Forever - Summer Dance Forever 2018

[@stepxstepdance]

Will go down in history as one of the best battles in our community

[@emadgholam9370]

Uhmmmmm, no it wont. Was a good battle, but far from the best.

[@tomstervelo]

@@emadgholam9370 and which is the best?

[@beanseason6515]

​@@emadgholam9370 still waiting on that answer

[@devonschwartz5353]

Daam Kite was waiting for a funk song to come on at the start, Frantick was destroying him on popping and animation but then Kite destroyed Frantic on funk and groove. He’s high energy too where as Frantick is pretty chill. Good to see a clash of such different strengths and personalities.

[@fuelbot]

Man, the energy in the room this year seemed incredible.

[@smoothcriminal28]

Two of the world’s best. Frantick is an artist, best slo-mo in the game, one of the strongest and cleanest hits ever, and imo the best solo performer in the popping world. However, Kite was simply extraordinary in this battle. Some of the best sets I’ ve ever seen. He was especially otherwordly after his Samurai performance with the sword on the floor. His dancing from there on was simply unbeatable.

[@mkulikowski]

Ozzy Salah would beat them both and of course Ryan Future Webb

[@Arnoboy93]

Michał Kulikowski I don’t see Salah winning against either of them. Back in 2008 maybe.

Wow merci Québec love Canada 😮

[@ladhahalisi]

Kite's 3rd round was too dooooooope! the samurai character was so unique, the flow was so good. I only ever see a popper play out a character/theme like that when doing creature or robot/animation. He even looked like he was about to throw in some samurai capoeira for a sec there

[@IknowThings1]

Paul Mhaiki look at 2014 Nelson vs ness. Only Nelson can dance to the 3rd songs. Bada$$!!

[@skokag]

Samurai capoeira? 😂😂😂 there’s nothing like that in Japan, plz learn more about each

Kite is my favourite but boogie frantick was just awesome

[@philipezra8671]

This is one of the best battles I have ever seen. Boogie frantic man 🔥🔥🔥 I haven’t seen many get inside the beat with such technicality, Kite has been great for years with his fast feet. I know it’s not the done thing but we should invent a special and rare draw give it a name when2 dancers kill it beyond I know I may be chatting shit 😂 I’m excited though

[@venturefray]

Both of them are equal, it depends what style of groove you like more. Tbh I prefer frantic’s. It looked more on lock and more familiar. But Kite’s definitely very strange one but also really cool!

[@apap9193]

Boogie frantick took it

[@noikfkzn5305]

what i like about okland bogaloo is there is a story to tell inside the popping like thats the point bro originally. frantick won for me

[@michaelverzosa106]

If I was Frantick, I would've said that Kite was dancing more than popping.

[@krazmozamarripa2545]

Agree ...kite ALWAYS gets wild I hate to say it but I can’t see the HITS in between sometimes. So it begins to look like ALL STYLES dancing instead of popping but what do I know

[@marcomo2533]

Just keep it dance. Dance is greater than anybody. Greater than boogaloo, greater than any other popping locking house... whatever, dance is first.　──Skeeter Rabbit

[@jspright5226]

Surely Dance > Popping. Not to undermine Popping, but no matter the dance discipline, the dance, and therefore music, always comes first.

[@jeffhsu8130]

Then Kite said so its Summer dance forever，Lol

[@michaelverzosa106]

Frantick would've won if this happened in the US. These hosts are tools.

[@lifetv7515]

Que power, el summer dance es un gran evento 💀💀💀

[@gianlucafonseca6017]

For me frantick took clearly first and second...kite on third. In the extras no story, kite took the win.

[@Amdecreations.]

Gianluca Fonseca I agree.

[@jingli4379]

the 2nd round from frantick is amazing!

[@Sticcz85]

FACTS!!! Frantick won the first 2 rounds clearly. Then Kite smashed on the 3rd hands down. Then the extra rounds Kite smashed again. I felt like this whole thing was messed up cause in one way Frantic won (if going by the first 3 rounds), but in the same token he lost overall (Kite won 3 rounds out of the 5 rounds they danced).

[@GoldenCobraDJ]

i think you're completely right Glad Kite didn't forfeit ....he still had the fire in him

[@SerpentineWisdom]

I think when people go to judge battles like this or battles in general they don't take into account fundamental things that they should be taking into account. This is DANCE. Popping/Animation/Hip Hop comes from the groove. The bounce. People see clean moves and assume because "so and so" had cooler looking waves, and his robot looks better, and his dimestops are more noticeable that he's "better." You need to first understand dance. Who had better groove? Who had more feel? Who appeared to be more connected to the track rather than coming off as doing a rehearsed set? Who displayed better rhythm? Who had better connection between moves? Who had less resets? Who has a larger foundation of style? Who had less boring rounds? There's a LOT of basic things to consider. Just cause your animation technique is clean and you do a cool concept doesn't mean you win against an insanely skilled and foundationally developed dancer. I do enjoy the both of their styles but you gotta understand WHAT IT IS that you're judging before making judgements AS IF you know.

[@paharnickrb]

Frantick doesn't do sets and has a much more complex approach to the rhythm than meets the eye. In my opinion Kite only killed the 3rd round, the rest being debatable. I don't like at all the way he uses his hands in the second part of round 4.

[@SerpentineWisdom]

@@paharnickrb I didn't say Frantick did sets...I said "coming off as doing a rehearsed set." I worded it like that for a reason. Those mean two completely different things. And the rest of that was just opinionated which I can't knock you for.

[@paharnickrb]

It's all good.

[@frexxdancer]

Popping doesn't have an specific bounce. I don't want to spend a lot of time explaining why, try to search the history of this style and then you'll find out a lot of things.

[@SerpentineWisdom]

@@frexxdancer I'm aware of the way it works and I'm aware of the foundation of it and how it started. Thanks for the tip tho😊

kinda thought it was more of an allstyles song than a popping song but still both dancers coped so i aint mad hahaha

[@leihu6591]

first song pls

[@123JumpingJacks]

Not sure how this went to a third round. Frantic was a clear winner. Kite pops while looking down. Shoulders droop. Even danced ahead of the songs at times. This did not seem close to me.

[@emadgholam9370]

Kite was teaching popping to the world when Frantic was still a junior. The top 10 poppers all took on kite's style in popping. And kite is still in the top 3 of poppers where as frantic could never even come close to the top 10. He's good, but frantic very limited moves and styles. No rolls, no good boogaloo's etc etc.
