I love the fact that people like Damian/Dave/Milan etc have stepped up their game enough that they can challenge Vasek, but the man is still due some benefit of the doubt.

From what I understand Vasek is all up in football freestyle right now.

Can you say $$$$$$$$$$$$$

So....maybe not so #1 this year.

David is on fire and expected to stay that way this year.

Should be very, very interesting.

It's kinda funny that the reigning world champ is essentially the underdog

his form in the major tournaments this year hasn't been great. You look at the routines from Todexon and Euros and it looks like he hasn't practiced so much.

However, he always comes out with something special for Worlds.

I think people were saying the exact same thing last year, especially considering he wasn't Reigning World Champion- Routines, for the first time in a long time.

It seems really surprising though, people are still very quiet across the internet about this worlds.

Also, Rush are playing in San Fran the Monday after Worlds. I hope Ted F. will be going.

What's people's predictions for a final?

For mine:

Vasek, David, Honza, Milan, Jim Penske, Damian, Juho, Phil M

Will be very interesting.

Can't wait to have some burritos and beer. Coming up soon.

People think Juho owns. I don't think he'll make it to top 40.

I'm flying out to San Francisco tomorrow and I'm going to bring an appropriately altruistic and alluring apple sauce amulet.

Ah I see, Juho isn't registered. Maybe Norek will take his place in my finals prediction.

Just looked to see if the Oakland Raiders will be playing that week, apparently the preseason starts then, but they're playing away.

This thread needs more hype.


And more burrito talk.

Last time I checked, Phil M was pretty damn good at routines. Finals in 07, 08, and 09 if I recall. I wouldn't count him out either.

yop that's right, he hit it at worlds in berlin.
It is in the video feeling worlds.
But dont ask me which move it was. :P

and yes it is nice that there is good amount of european freestylers. :)
I guess there will be a good battle between:

david
jim
norek
milan
vasek

It would be so awesome if there is a live stream from the finals like last year at berlin...

Yeah it is weird to leave Annsi, Bevier, Phil M and a lot of otger people out. Is it me or are there a lot more "world class" people going this year?

Can somebody link to the 5 dex? Maybe somebody can do it in a sick 3!

Hey Circle Semifinals? How are you doing? How many cookies would you like with your glass of SHOWDOWN.

We've got
Anssi, Norek, Damian, Clavens,
Gatesman, Bevier, Weber, Penske,
Somolinos, Lon, Bujko, Benda,
Landes, Morrison, Paakkonen, Antikainen,

Like, holy mother of the former prince of Greenland. Killer. All of those players are just brutal. If anyone is interested, I'm sure we could make a support group for the other 24 competitors. We could even have wristbands.
