Event Content

Showcase

This showcase will feature the amazing techniques of freestyle footballers and basketballers, and a worldview created to match the music. In addition to current members of Pelusa, a variety of performers from the scene will gather to perform.

Battle

Battles are the most common content at freestyle events. This event is held in the form of an exhibition battle, with no winner or loser. It’s a HYPE MOMENT-like content where each person competes in the freestyle they want to do, regardless of winning or losing or making mistakes.

The Best Hyped Trick

Anyone at the venue can participate, and the player who excites the audience the most will receive a prize. The content is based on simple rules. There are no restrictions on the technique or genre as long as it is within 15 seconds. The skill and courage to make a decision within the time limit will be tested. Who will create the HYPE MOMENT?

Organizer Comments (Manato, Mahiro)

We are a freestyle football and basketball circle called Pelusa. We usually practice once a week and perform at events.

This will be the second time the event is held following last year’s HYPE MOMENT, but this time the aim is to create an event where people can simply enjoy freestyle, rather than comparing themselves to others in terms of winning or losing.

I also hope that this event will encourage people to become interested in freestyle and start dancing.

I hope that both those who know freestyle and those who don’t will come to the venue and help make the event a success!
