B-Boy Gravity of 5 Crew Dynasty and Dynamic Rockers is Red Bull BC One 2013 North American champion and has qualified for the world finals in Seoul, Korea in November.

He defeated Lancer of the Calamities Crew in the first rounds to face Jeremy of Havikoro Crew in the quarter finals, graduating on to Flexum (Knuckleheads) in the semi finals to win against Ben (Knuckleheads) in the finals.

“I knew I had the title in round one of the final battle, to be honest. I did everything I was supposed to do. B-Boy Ben is nasty, I felt like he was trying to strategise on me so I had to strategise more and throw my best tricks at him, said Gravity after his win. ”

Gravity joins Arex of the South American qualifier in the world finals.

“I didn’t get invited to the World Finals – I earned it – and nobody can take that from me,” Gravity continued. “I’ve got a couple of months to prepare and I’ll be working double time but I’ll definitely be ready. Now is the celebration but the moment I’m back on home turf, it’s time to work.”

The judges for the North American qualifiers were Pelezinho, Wicket and El Nino.

Afterwards Wicket commented: “The level of competition tonight was intense. Basically it came down to who was hungry and who was consistent throughout the whole night – and that’s why Gravity won.”
