dhamaal segment was fuckn ill

 

[Mr Sandhu]

amazing energy
but one thing you should fix is tie your chadaras a little better (pinning it more efficiently), i saw too much leg for my liking

 

[dheerja]

First of all, I loved the intro video. I was lol-ing in the audience.

You guys have improved 100 fold from your Burgh performance. The dancing caliber has shot up, everyone has awesome energy and channels it well. I was going to write which jodis I liked best but I ended up listing them all Nice. Pretty clean too, and formations were unique. I wish you were competing at Blowout, but hopefully you'll continue to apply to competitions after Bayside!

• Sweet intro stunt, I love your logo.
• Girls are awesome at katos! Great form!
• That line formation during the props segment where the girls weave through the guys line is awesome and looked great even from my awkward angle in the audience.
• Girls keep going strong with the khunde segment, impressive form. I didn't really like the fast spin you guys did in the choreo though. The rest of the choreo is so nice to Lagdi Yaari and the spin just seemed forced/random.
• I really really liked the choreo at 3:40, but I wish you had spread out the moves a little more. There's some unique footwork in there that would have had more of an effect if you had spaced it out and repeated.
• When girls are doing forceful arm movements (sammi, traveling across stage with arms out in front), keep it more graceful. Those moves should be light and graceful, not harsh.
• Yasaswi(ne) you killed the jhummar.
• Love love love the jhummar. Clean up the betkas and it will be wonderful.
• Really wish I was in the balcony to see Gal Rangleh because I couldn't see the domino effect that well. SICK.
• Eek too much leg from orange/blue during the lehria, but nice segment.
• Daler Mehndi! Sweet! (Bhangra Fever memories)
• Song after Daler Mehndi didn't really hit as hard as the other segments. Especially on the jugni, could add something else to the mix or change up the choreo so it drops better.
• YAY for You Make Me Wanna Shout! Been wanting to do that for a while, it was adorable.

Congrats guys and see you at Bayside!

Why thank you JMK. Except by the time I got to this vid I had gone a little insane at work, so excuse the weird vocabulary and random fragmented sentences.

I like rolls, especially buttered. Now I'm hungry again...

dheerja seems overly random today
she was hungry for some polish food, now rolls.

HI5 DHEERJA KAUR!

 

[Jabar Jung]

Mostly what dheerja said.

Jhummar was nice.
Didn't like daler mehndi on lehrian...

AND the song Gal Ranleh punjab di song...i always keep my ears open when i hear gall rangleh punjab di...So far none of the teams that i've seen used the full chorus line. Props to ABC and recently husky bhangra for not using it.

Firstly, Swi big ups to your team man...you guys have come A LONG way in the past year and a half - 2 years...

Couples thingss:
-First, one thing ive noticed about you guys at fever and your past few videos is that you guys are SO CLEAN....your formations werent out of this world or anything but i really am impressed at how clean u guys keep your formations...these days on the circuit if you just simplify a little bit and clean up, you can place at almost any competition and this routine is the epitome of that...well deserved to place

-Having said that....you guys REALLY need to learn how to tie your chaadre correctly...seeing that much leg for the lehrian and for the portion before and after it really really takes away from the performance....when tying it pull the front down...waaaaaay down...cuase honestly that entire segment all i could focus on was how much leg was being shown

Overall great work man...im really looking forward to seeing u guys again soon

-Ahmad
