Well done to all.

Interesting to see a mix of the old and new school in the Champions JnJ placings.From what little I hear it seems like there's a movement back toward the dances roots in the competition scene at the moment.

Of course, this is just me reading between the lines of a few off-hand comments I've heard on-line so I could be well off base.

They just make it look so easy and are having so much fun at the same time. That definitely had the "wow" factor. :clap:

Got the same impression, the forum I read referred to it as a 'west coast swingers' versus 'westies' battle :)

Personally, I think a lot of the top winning routines now are so abstract you could make an argument they should be disqualified on the grounds of not being west coast. *shrug*. For better heads than mine to decide :)
