You either love APD's style or you hate it. Personally, I hate it. None the less, congrats on executing what you do and winning first place.


My concern with this performance is APD does the same thing year after year. Always predictable. Guy standing on another guy's shoulder on one leg, with the rest of the team revolving around him with sapps. 30 seconds later a platform holding up another stunt. 30 seconds later a car gimmick involving a steering wheel. 30 seconds later a gimmick in which one side pauses and the other does a move and vice versa. Lastly a big stunt with one guy climbing his way up.


Once again like I said, i may not be a fan of your style but I respect that you guys do what you love. But if you told me this was Bruin 06, I'd believe it... or Blowout 08...or Fusion 09. Same moves, same stunts, same outfits, same everything. I think it's time you guys challenge yourselves some and do something different. I personally can't watch any of your performances because they are all the same.


By the way, any reason why your dholi doesn't wear a bhangra pugh?

it would have been interesting to see how APD would have stood up against heavy-hitting guys teams like those that performed at Elite 8....personally i dont think theres enough variation with there moves to hold up against those teams; it seems like alot of their moves are 2 cts of punjab and then 2 cts of some other move like jandu sangha. nevertheless applying to a toronto comp would challenge APD. do it.

+1 ^ Totally Agree with you

Also 1:40 standing on the stage before performance (although 1 min was for the sheyar but still), 25 seconds cheering for Lakers (I'ma laker fan too but this is a Bhangra competition), 35 seconds driving a car (This is not 2003/Khalsa Junction Era), and last 50 seconds on the 3 man tower. That 3.5 mins out of 8.5 mins of performance. Also all the steps for saap segment were super simple. Alot of repetition of steps, and just 2 main formations that I observed. Also why doesn't the Dholi wear a bhangra Pagg with Turla? Overall I would like to see more Bhangra in the performance @ a bhangra competition.

P.S. Loved the voice of the singer in the begining [got lots of potential] and the mix was sick. Congratulations on the 1st Place.

Yeah, I prefer it rather than getting it in the eye. Not sure why you like it on your face so much - it's a bitch to clean up.

That performance completely solidifies why apd is the best team of the 2nd half of the season. They never seem to disappoint! I can’t to see what they bring for next season!

haha I believe he's already proved his great potential with his new songs/album with DBI and concerts at bhangra comps like Fusion 2010. DJ Sandhu, I believe, is what he goes by. I'm a fan of the voice as well...
