IBE takes place again in Heerlen (Netherlands). One reason more for many B-Girls to make a trip to the Netherlands in order to take part in the international 2vs2 B-Girl battle to represent their crew and their country.

A little bit delayed, at about 15.30 the Host „Swifty“ starts with the preselection. 34 duos, i.e. 68 dancers start the race. At first there are some show battles in which the judges Carlos (Netherlands), B-Girl Roxy (UK) and Kevin Gopie aka Renegade (UK) choose the best 8 duos for the KO rounds. You can see a lot of known faces, among them also Paulina from the Breaknuts from Poland who exactly one week ago won for the second time the 1vs1 B-Girl Battle at the Outbreak Europe. Other heads of the scene such as Angel (UK) or Jilou (Germany) were present either. DJ F Twice took care of the music at the crowded IBE City Stage.

The first battle was between the both power women Twister & Bellota from the Fusion Crew (Colombia) and Angel (France/UK) & Paulina (Poland). Here the experienced B-Girls Angel & Paulina could clearly convince the jury and won with 0:3. In the second battle the US-Americans Crissy B & Anna Ortega aka Lady Fury encountered the European representers Stormy (Belgium) & Xenia. The both Californian girls could prevail only very closely and won in the end with 2:1. However, in battle number 3 between Soe & Alicia (Belgium) and Momo & JK47, the Royal Beans from Canada as well as in battle number 4 between Mira & Happy and Bo (Netherlands) & Jeskilz (France/USA) the decisions were absolutely clear and for this reason Momo & JK47 together with Bo & Jeskilz made their way in to the semi final.

Strong semi final battles followed in the round of the TOP4. In the end there were tight 2:1 decisions in the favor of Angel & Paulina as well as Bo & Jeskilz who after a short break danced for the crown in the final of the 2vs2 B-Girl battle at the IBE 2016. After 2 runs per dancer the decison for the jury and the audience was explicit and thus Bo (Netherlands) & Jeskilz (France/USA) fulfilled the jump on to the victory podium.
