0:05:45 > 0:05:47Nice performance.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Loving you on the side there, OK? It takes a lot of strength.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Some people don't know about it.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55It takes a lot of strength to hold your body up and spin in a circle
0:05:55 > 0:05:59like a washing machine and hold it there, OK? Very, very good.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01CHEERING Little bit of criticism.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05There are some routines that could've been a bit tighter, a bit cleaner.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Some of you were throwing moves away,
0:06:07 > 0:06:10especially when it comes from the wrist downwards.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11You can clean those up a little bit.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14You made a little mistake at the end of the flip.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17But, I like the way you thought, "OK, hoi, boom, land it."
0:06:17 > 0:06:21And you just stay on the floor and style it up. No-one knows, OK?
0:06:21 > 0:06:22All right?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Guys, very, very good performance. Very good.- Thanks, Turbo.

0:07:06 > 0:07:10For me, when it was the locking at the beginning, it gave me chills,
0:07:10 > 0:07:12cos you'd catch the "ding-a-ling, ow!" and that stuff.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16And I loved that. It's the little detailed bits I love.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Just for me, when you mix the routines together,
0:07:19 > 0:07:21try and blend them so they all link,
0:07:21 > 0:07:24cos it just went from one track into another.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Other than that, I really enjoyed it.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28- CHEERING - Excellent. Very nice.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42I love the whole fact you made us...
0:07:42 > 0:07:45You made me smile in the beginning, when you turned her around
0:07:45 > 0:07:49and you had everyone thinking, "Oh, what's going to happen?"
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Yeah, just bring back more fire next time.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55I would like to see more fire if you guys come back next time.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58OK, great. Good comments. Thank you, judges.
