The highly anticipated annual event, which took place at Ergo Arena in Gdańsk, Poland on November 6, saw the world’s best breakers go head-to-head in front of thousands of spectators and online viewers tuning in from across the globe.

I feel it is not just the belt, it’s not just the title, but what I am representing on the floor, the values and morals. Thank you everybody in the room for giving me this energy.”
B-Boy Amir added: “I felt the power in my soul and in my mind. And I am glad that I could show that power here, on that stage.”
