Good job, but I'm curious, did they let you bring in a PS2, TV, game and pads? It just seems a little off...

Good for you! I was thinking of freestyling next year for the talent show at my school, but i probably will wimp out ('%5E%5E;') But my friends and I were thinking of starting a DDR club at school or out of school anyway. Anyway, you're very brave to go up in front of everyone like that, as people are so judgemental about things they dont understand or cant do.
again, good job

Ive got an update!

So today my school had underclassmen awards (they gave out scholarships from organizations and subject awards and stuff like that), and after the awards we had the "review" of the talent show. A few people were asked to perform again, including us. So we peformed again, except this time in front of 5 times as many people because all the teachers and all of the underclassmen. We were a huge hit, we had other students AND teachers saying how amazing we were all day, it was great

.

...and just so you know how we set it up because somebody asked that....we went on the stage, set up a digital projector on the floor, plugged in the video to that, set up a portable projector screen about 10 feet away, hooked up the audio wires to the gym's sound system, and we were all set to go. It was no problem for us to bring in the Playstation 2, the projector and the screen are school property so they let us use it. Even though this is a catholic high school, they're still VERY open to everything lol.

Since we go to a catholic high school the people that attend it aren't as judgemental about everything. Most people that go to our school aren't devout catholics, we just go there for the education and enviornment because it's much better than a public school.

Also, I did this because of a few different reasons. It would be fun, thats a given. My friend I did this with would have never done this but I was brave, and sometimes I feel bad for him because he's just not well known in our class, and I wanted him to get some attention because whenever we're together I usually get the attention, so I'm just being a good friend. Lastly, I wanted to show people that DDR is not always just a bunch of people moving their feet really fast and sweating.

I agree with you whole heartly. You will never get an adduance if you just go by the steps. you need to make it interesting. By the way. what types of freestyle moves did you do? I'm just curious. and and before i forget. Kudos on 4th place.

I should've done this before lol

Think Ya Better D - pad switching, spins, couple of handslaps nothing too big

Let's Groove - WOW, we had so much fun with this one. Since most of the judges would be adults we picked this song because it's a remix of a song they all would know. We had lots of fun doing all these disco moves and stuff, opposite spins, drops, and doing pars of it backwards.

AM-3P - I took J-Dogg's routine as a base and altered it greatly and added stuff to it. For those of you that never saw it, it was filled with sliding (for lack of a better term), pretzels (if you know what they are), huge handslaps, and some backwards crazy stuff that you need to see for yourself lol.
