Amazing times man.

I didn't make KOS 2 due to an exam the next day (should have just bunked and not missed out on the event of the century!!) but I saw the warm ups that morning and spoke to players I thought looked incredible.

The atmosphere then was nuts. It was the same as Streetfighter II in the early 1990's. I feel blessed to have experienced both scenes.

Did try to revive KOS with IV and V at Las Vegas Soho in the early 2010's, had some entrants from the old days but it was really hard to get new people into freestyle as it had long died by the mid 2000's.

Amazing article considering you're young and weren't around at the time - But it's 100% accurate. Respect.
