[ptwist]

more authentic body movement but it dont mean its better...he seems to be a bit all over the place...if he can control it it would look much better

[sharowsky77777]

whit The name of the song is? como se llama la cancion???? plissss

[Kolliflauer]

wow, the choreography is off the hook! no wonder they won second. i'm not sure about jhesus, there's something less than perfect about him but maryelis is one hot firecracker! girl can dance! well deserved.

[Kellichu]

Also, Jhesus Aponte has MUCH more authentic styling and body movement than Oliver, and if you want the truth his timing is better too....but you can't walk into a competition and just start social dancing.

[Kellichu]

I think a lot of people are confusing club style and performance salsa. Jhesus Aponte is in every way possible an amazing dancer - possibly better than Oliver if you really get into it, but that's arguable. I've seen him do some amazing stuff, but this performance was lacking. It looked very sloppy and it wasn't nearly as clean as Oliver and Luda.

[johnnymorocco]

OMG, Olli is so much better than Jhesus it's not funny. Timing, footwork, leading technique, body isolation, spinning and styling, he has it all over the rest of the competition, give the judges a little credit, they know what they're doing. I think he will reign for a while yet. If you want to watch 'original' salsa go watch vids from the 60s and 70s, no one dances competitions like that anymore, least of all those in the finals of the World Champs. The world has moved on and so has Salsa!

[RUBENLUNA2006]

Jhesus is an average dancer, looks heavy at times (sec.51-55) mediocre for a world championship. Oliver is without question THE ONE. It is true that Luda is not the Best female salsa dancer but, she follows perfectly well.

[tanja0322]

I liked the performance...it seems to be going more into the ballroom direction though...not so much street style anymore...

[MiguelonAngelito]

They are elegant but I think sometimes their choreography does not match with the music at all

[amorette23]

Maybe you're right. Jhesus did look a bit weird but I was talking about the choreography and the fluency. I saw you replying on the semifinals of Luda and Oliver. It seems you liked it but the only person that danced well was Oliver cause Luda dances stiff as hell on that routine, sorry

[krewej]

Well the female partner looks pretty well,I admire her dancing,she looks really very very hot,but jhesus is totally terrible-an antithesis of a good male dancer:)))actually i saw him on other videos and he doesnt look that totally bad,but here its awful sorry

[LatinTop10]

Great... put it to my website: c-salsa.blogspot . com

thx

[amorette23]

I know a lot of people won't agree. But this is what salsa is all about!! Dancing fluently with not TOO much spins and acrobacy. Nowadays it's like the more you spin the better, who faster who better.

[salsaandrock]

This team represented New York very well. They are beautiful dancers.. they just appear more like social dancing. But don't hate just because they don't have luda's ballroom lines or emily and juniors speed. Super mario is right they are very trained and respected salsa dancers.

[calidanza]

They even get any position this time. They seem completely untrained, even more if to compete. At least for this level of event.

[supermariocanada]

In wat sense.... they are very trained dancers and have a style like no other

[calidanza]

ahora si que esta peor !! Now is worse !!
