Word agreed how this didn't place and I recorded it from the balcony to try to get the full effects of the formations. Seeing it live, the formations were on point and it baffles me how they didn't place

you guys consistently had one maybe two guys out of formation. That shows a lack of focus for individual dancers more so than a lack of team execution. But, you're only as good as your weakest links. Good performance, could have been third seeing as how nypd was way more sloppy.

I don't give feedback on BTF, but since i have seen you guys go to comps non stop, and you should be placing higher at some comps. Here is the reasons I think you don't....
evaluate your chero. Think about what you think is sick, and what actually come off sick from the viewers point of view. Also think about where you are putting gimmicks, or hard hitting parts in your dance, because somethings its doesn't hit hard, or comes off "different". And last, just because something is harder to do in a set, doesn't mean people will appreciate it. It clearly needs to be shown and not hidden to get the message across.
you guys have a lot of talent, and gurjeet is just to sick. But someone just need to restructure you set. If you think about what i said above, i have no doubt you will rip WBBC

This set had some of the sickest moments I've seen in a bhangra set in god knows how long:
1) "Jatt Kudiyan Toh Darda" khunda chaal
2) Kuldip Manak (I think) at the beginning of katos
3) laung gawacha jugni
That being said, I think you guys need to focus your time on dancer quality and fluidity. Many of your dancers are way too robotic for your signature fast paced, "in-your-face" style... Also, formations need to be a little more crisp (the balcony view of this routine was a bit less forgiving).
Furteelay Shokeen is undoubtedly on its way to the top of the Bhangra totem pole but its just the little things you guys need to work on in order to become unstoppable. See you in Jersey!

Another sick performance...i think your kaato segment was the best of all for sure.
Just one suggestion since no one has brought it up. It was pretty evident that the blue and red jodi were upfront for almost the entire dance. Next was yellow and green/black was in the back for most. Idk if judges keep an eye on these things too but i would have liked to see more of a variation throughout. In the view that mariam posted the 75% of the dance is red and blue in front. I've always had the thought that strong teams have the ability to show all their strong dancers.
Congrats on a great performance though. Can't wait to see you guys at WBBC
