In addition, if there are not enough Bgirls, there will be a mixed category for adult professionals.
There will be exciting prizes up for grabs, including 3 medals in all categories, as well as a cash prize of 500€ for each winner of the Bboy and Bgirl Pro categories and the opportunity to participate in Extreme Barcelona.
