TOURNAMENT RULES
Format Teams of two compete head to head in a single elimination bracket. Each round, both teams perform their dap and are scored by a panel of three judges. The highest score advances. Lose once and you're out.
Scoring Judges score each dap across three categories, each out of 10:
Execution (0-10) — Was it clean? Did both teammates hit every beat without fumbling? No hesitations, no missed connections.
Style (0-10) — Did it have personality? Creativity and difficulty count here. A basic handshake won't cut it.
Sound (0-10) — Did it hit? The clap, the snap, the smack — judges are listening as much as they're watching.
Maximum score per round: 30 points.
Rules
• Each team gets one attempt per round
• The dap must be completed within 10 seconds of the signal
• If there is a significant fumble, the team gets one re-do — but judges may deduct up to 2 points
• Teams may use a different dap in each round
• No props
Finals The championship round is best of three. Both teams must introduce at least one new dap they have not performed in the tournament.
Tiebreaker In the event of a tied score, each team performs a single dap judged only on sound. The cleanest and loudest wins.
Prize The winning team takes home $200 in D for Dapper store credit, bragging rights for a whole year, and a very special surprise prize.
