9. Procedure of Break Dance solo competition
a. FIRST/PRELIMINARY ROUND: Each group of competitors begins dancing together in the preliminary round with a one-minute ‘warm up’ performance, which the judges do not evaluate. They then dance (not more than 3) fi rst 40 seconds period. When all dancers fi nish, they start to perform the 2nd period of 40 seconds in the same order. The fi nal performance gives the judges an opportunity to compare the dancers. To avoid any risk of injuries, judges shall walk around the competition fl oor during the fi nal presentations. Best 16 competitors will be qualifi ed and continue with battles (knock out system).
b. Qualifi cation: If there are 18 dancers or more in the 1st round, adjudicators should qualify the best 16, which they divide into 4 classes/categories (A=best, B=2nd best, C=3rd best, D=4th best). For those whom they want to qualify, they use the following point system. The adjudicator gives the best 4 dancers 4 points, the next best 4 dancers 3 points, the next best 4 dancers 2 points and the next best dancers 1 point each. For those whom they do not want to qualify they give 0 points. According to achieved summary of points the RANKING of the 16 best dancers is made, in which fi rst four dancers belong to A class, 4 next to B class, 4 next to C class and 4 to D class. If there are more than 20 competitors in the 1st=preliminary round, a Supervisor together with a Chairman of Judges may decide to ask for additional crosses for dancers on fi rst next position after 16 best dancers (cross means placement on the 17th position and is taken into consideration in case of tie).
c. BATTLES: In the 8 battles that follow, the dancers from A class will battle with dancers from D class, and dancers from B class will battle with dancers from C class (1st in a ranking from group A with last from group D, etc….). Neither dancers, nor adjudicators will be informed who belongs to which class, only scruteneer and Supervisor (Chairman of Judges) will be informed. List of battles will be published. After 8 battles, those who are winners will battle in the next 4 battles, and afterwards in last two for 4th and 3rd as well as for 2nd and 1st place. All adjudicators´ decisions must be also in written form and signed.
SECTION 8: RULES FOR IDO DANCE DISCIPLINES
Ranking after the 1st round:
1A 5B 9C 13D
2A 6B 10C 14D
3A 7B 11C 15D
4A 8B 12C 16D
SPIDER of BATTLES:
If there is 10 to 17 competitors in the 1st round, adjudicators will qualify only 8 dancers, 2 of class A (4 points), 2 of class B (3 points), 2 of class C (2 points), and 2 of class D (1 point). Then in next round there are only 4 battles (A1/D8; B3/C6; A2/D7; B4/C5). The winners of these four battles will go on to two battles and fi nally will be one battle for 1st place and one battle for 3rd place.
If there is less than 10 competitors in the 1st round , adjudicators will qualify only 4 dancers, one of each class and then there are only 2 battles (A1/D4 and B2/C3); followed by battles of the winners of previous 2 battles (one battle for 1st place and one battle for 3rd place).

TEAM BATTLES
1. Number of Dancers: 3-7
2. Music: Teams may use their own music in the fi rst round. Organizer’s music in Break Dance style will be used in the fi nal round.
3. Duration of Performance: 150-240 seconds (2:30 - 4 minutes) of each team’s performance may be danced using the team’s music. The “Semifi nal-Battle” (3. and 4. place) will last about 5 – 10 minutes. The “Final-Battle” 10 – 15 (20) minutes, according to the Supervisors decision. The last minute will be announced.
4. Tempo: No restrictions.
5. Typical Break Dance Elements: Same as for Break Dance Solos, plus: Acrobatics should have some style continuation. Choreography for the exhibition to the team’s own music must be a clear performance of a team, not just a demonstration of unrelated solo performances. Musicality, diffi culty of movements and fi gures, originality and team variability will all be highly evaluated. Synchronized movements, shadow standing, mirror positions and smooth transitions of these components from one into another, along with choreographic variability and work with space will also be evaluated. All typical elements of Break Dance should be performed – Styles - Pop Locking - Power moves – Electric Boogie.
6. If one team disturbs another team’s performance or endangers another team’s safety, a loss of evaluation points will result.
7. The fi nal ‘battle’ portion of each contest shall consist of individual performances of dancers from the competing teams in which each dancer must dance his or her solo part at least one time, and the team’s performance will be judged as a whole.
8. Based on the fi rst round results, the Chairman of Judges will determine the order of “battles” between 1st - 2nd ranked teams and the 3rd - 4th ranked teams.
9. All other rules are as outlined under BREAK DANCE SOLO.
10. Procedure of Break Dance Team competition

Only the 4 best teams will battle to the Organizer’s music (3rd. against 4th and 1st against 2nd)
If there are more than 8 teams in the 1st=preliminary round, a Supervisor together with a Chairman of Judges may decide to ask for additional crosses for team/teams on the next position after 4 best teams (cross means placement).
SPECIAL NOTE FOR BREAK DANCE AND ELECTRIC BOOGIE:
