Generally people don't judge between styles because everyone has their own opinions on the "better" styles of dance. For instance, personally I believe if someone can lock for a long period of time and keep it interesting (not repeat the same flow of moves everytime) it is a lot more fun and entertaining to watch than breaking or just hip-hop. Also, whatever you see in the scene is completely not popping or locking, it's a mix of a shit load of different old school styles. A lot of people in the scene now do a lot of body waves, glides, and tuts; all of which are their own style. If you acually come across someone who knows their "dance", you will see popping: a quick flex (pop) and release to the beat of the music generally done with their forearms, biceps, and shoulders. Everyone just seems to mix in waving, tutting, gliding, railing, ticking, and strobing; for croud interest and becuase it just shows what you can do. So what Cheez said

is acually pretty close, but seriously now... none of us should be rating eachother in dancing anyways. Who is to say what someone is in terms of a rating level? Like is there this "super giant dancing scale of power" I haven't been informed of?
