[@IconML]

morris are you kidding?! Kid Davids style and variety killed morris's generic moves that have been over used for years!!

[@victorprom2268]

[@luis210990poppin]

[@thestEEZ25]

Does anyone know what kind of shoes kid David was wearing during the interview?

[@VincaniTV]

Dope cant wait to see the rest

[@markoumarouan4300]

that shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit kid david winner --'

[@Mr23markm]

Amazing!! Get this on tv!!!

[@GroovMovz]

Been waiting a while to check this out, dope battle and there is a nice energy to this event that allowed the contestants to really get into it. Can't wait to see more of the battles, the lineup is no joke.

[@allvariant1263]

-,-" morris suck, kid david was the winner.

[@harrisongabriel]

Where can u find this song

[@gervinrodavia8513]

DOPE! I'm gonna wait for the next one!

[@waves1532]

can someone tell me the name of intro song?

[@AtulIngle267]

name of the 1st battle song pls...

[@luis210990poppin]

haha.. looks like david shining this time.. as he said before.. " winning isn't everything but shining is." lol.. yea, i'd love to agree with all of you guys.. it seems that david won the battle for me.. Damn! he got style u know.. that thing ain't shit...

[@BboyNetwork]

I got a question about the challenge rounds. Will there be a time where the competitors got to do a challenge that might be outside of their area, such as rocking?

[@SwaggSteppin]

does anyone know the track in round 3?

[@6Sambora]

Sick battle :) good job DS2DIO

[@GnarL33]

Haha when the camera zoomed out the dam lights killed me, but dam that was a pure battle

[@akin5124]

dope battle i like what you all are doing for the bboy scenes

[@giordanoprashant]

plz sumbody tel me what is the song name at 12:00 minute??

[@dtejada11]

Can you turn the lights on? I can not see anything. thanks

[@chino314sg]

When was this? Someone tell me please

[@tiisetsommotlana7920]

this was an awesome battle

[@umarbashir123]

good shit i loved both

[@RandyFM92]

thats so amazing !!!

[@bigchunkyboi]

whats up with lighting? it starts messing with the video in the third round :(

[@crashcrew673]

Songs?

[@UChinGC]

LOVE THE CONCEPT!!!!!!

[@kidalvaro7924]

[@The99thKingsJester]

just amazing... took my breath away

[@megawakim]

i love this show!!

[@actionstyleusa23]

Awesome

[@Flashlegz]

[@donovanramires3215]

0:40 name of the song please

[@fanadejet]

Really AN AMAZING saison !!! it'll be a powerful competition !! i love it

[@Deusgaudio]

[@xbishux]

Oh fucking this is amazing! Can't wait for the episode.

[@AztecaJose]

I need some sunglasses to watch this, mad shiny!

[@freepopjorge]

AWSOME!!!

[@fishznchip]

is there gonna be a second season of this?

[@Daraka.]

I think it's refreshing. I would definitely like to see what they do given more time. I understand that this forces them to give it their all from start to finish. It's more about precise moves that show off their mastery of their craft than a performance. Episode 2!

[@nosoydev]

Sick!!!

[@Maximuspyridius]

What is going on with the lighting? You can barely see them?

[@JustJenniferStyle]

Thank you bboy vicanati for showing me this

[@alofish]

yep!

[@DukesTheKid]

How the hell did he win?

[@peenutt0630]

One thing is for sure,, this show makes King of the Floor look like a PBS Special

[@snmaniac]

top bboys are from usa?

[@shoyo024]

first song please

[@bboydreaded]

Classic, i like it. the feedback by the judges is an awesome idea. Agree with them or disagree. at least you get an insight into what they were thinking. all are legit breakers and to know how they see whats going on, is helpful and educational.

[@artembart]

I looking this show first time and i like it.

[@Hysokaofficiel]

What a wonderful feelings when i see no dislikes , this is real hiphop.

[@framingan]

Also, where is thesis?

[@prelovedxgood8949]

respect for those who create this channel

[@rolycaosds]

thats are amezing bro make it the arena colombia

[@thewhizkid3937]

This was a good battle.

[@jbbjerrall]

Wait a minute El nino, Gravity , Kid Glyde, Morris and Kid David played in Step up three though!

[@skyhigh95b]

That was amazing!!! I understand the judges decision about Morris, but I thought that was a really tight n close battle that could either way no matter, I can't wait to see the next episode :D

[@KokuRou]

Hip hop became politics. I dont even care if this starts an argument. Majority of American battles that nino is in he ends up winning. Kid David should've been the winner here, no hate for Morris, but on a real note, more variety more footwork last i checked was a lot better than varieties of flares windmills and headspins.

[@rondremolo5052]

tell that to pocket, all he does is airflair combos and people lose their god damned minds...i agree with you tho, its sad when people cant appreciate all the intricate movements dancers like kid david do

[@Jswift703]

besides the short timing, this is a pretty great way to get breaking certified as a professional sport

[@eljefe114]

So crazy. David is a homie from high school and we still kick it. Marin loves u Dave. Peace

[@hungbe80]

Since we got the cast of "FRESHEST KIDS, we need all Instructors-ZULU GREAMS how to Break Dance, and Mike Garcia;D

[@PainTheKid]

how do you set a time limit on the bboys and expect them to show their full potential within that time limit?

[@MrMooPow]

I wish this was on tv!!!

[@Deathmetalfiend]

I completely agree with ya on this one!! These bboys needs to get paid for their hard work and dedication as well!!

[@JitterStaticfLoor]

Why do they have a time limit? It doesn't feel right

[@Alchovi]

I dont like the talking befor the battle, but the Idea of the random Challengeround and the cool Sci-Fi-Atmosphere through the robotic voice etc. is fantastic!, love this. Want to see how the show is when i´m 20 and if its for bboys all over the world :)

[@Integrity]

Dope concept. Lighting was sick but got in the way of the overall feel and moves. Nonetheless...sick

[@Igni_kybalion]

That floor would trip me the fuck out if I was battling lol

[@MrJayOkane]

Sick

[@ruselinio]

i liked so much and i agree with the decision of the judges.

[@ToonTVDerek]

wahhhhh i was def pulling for Kid David! lol but Morris def did his thing out there, i was like WTF! when he did that elbow halo at the beginning lol

[@IrishKatieKatz]

This should be on tv :o

[@NinoZozobra]

wicked

[@Deadfish102]

There have always, and always will be battles. There have always been tournaments, crews, competitions, etc. It's part of the culture.

[@bucsao123]

Interesting!

[@jimmy1392]

[@kadenstevens1273]

Damn *my friend* YOU STLOE MAH GOD DAMN MUATHAR FOCKING JOB

[@TaNgoLeMa]

This is the type of thing we need in New Zealand

[@kibyparkerdejesus4261]

da hora mano '

[@FITTinIT]

more bboys ! :p

[@zannne3]

Luke & Landon sent me to check out your channel!

[@Lexpimentel90]

What type of shoes is Morris rockin?

[@PhilosophyG]

the love, knowledge and understanding for this art will become universal. And, hopefully with that, will come more respect for the local scene from WoD. Of course, this is all completely ideal, and the only way it can be assured is if we, the true hip-hop culture, can stand up and make an impact on commercial handling. I agree that nobody should be pushed out, and competitors/locals should actually be priority. I'm sure that if the venue was unlimited, that wouldn't even be a question.

[@bboykhaire]

I think this is one of a good way to help Bboys in their area of expertise. DS2DIO give a way to all bboys around the world to be seen through this kind of battle. Its not easy to make this happen. Recording, video and picture editing, music arrangement, crowds, judges, and even put 8 of biggest name in bboy history together. Do you ever watched anything like this before? yeah, no! So just shut up and enjoy this.
