WJF 17 has concluded! Very special thanks to our Las Vegas based hospitality team that arranged ground transportation and nightlife activities for our competitors — Joe Fisher and Noah Schmeissner. Thanks also to our judges starting with our head judge, Josh Horton, followed by Vova Galchenko and Dan Brown. Dozens of new moves were added to the move database this year and we'd like to thank Bart Hoving, Eivind Dragsjø, Josh Horton and Vova Galchenko for evaluating and scoring all the new moves. Thanks to our three venues — the Plaza Hotel, the Chuck Minker Sports Complex, and Notoriety, our amazing competition theater — and of course thank you to all our competitors for training hard and traveling to Las Vegas.
