From July 27th to August 12th Mantis and and Flonetik visited Paris, Slovakia and Netherlands to attend two of the most well know breaking events in Europe, known as Outbreak and the Notorious IBE. They also took time to visit family and friends. Big shout outs to B-girl Hurricane who invited them to her practice spot just outside Paris and to Willy from Soul Mavericks who brought them to hip hop Huis. Mantis was the runner up in the finals of the “Return of the B-Girl" Battle at IBE versus B-Girl Mad Max who won first place, congrats to them both!
Kid Break and Styleski took the win at several competitions this summer.
