"Mi just feel happy, happy, happy!" said an ecstatic Damion 'Clubs' Smith of Card Unit, as he exited the stage after the group was declared the 2010 Red Label Wine Dancin' Dynamites winner on Sunday night at the Limelight Complex in Half-Way Tree.

His partner Rory 'Spade' Brakenbridge was also excited as he described the moment as a dream come through.

"Mi happy ya now, yuh zeet! Mi dream finally come through, is like mi wake up and right yah now mi out deh," he said backstage as friends and fans tossed both dancers in the air.

Earlier that evening, high energy continuously surged throughout the audience - some seated while others stood - as suspense ripped through the venue and etched anxiety into the faces of the dancers as they awaited host Jenny Jenny to make their fate known.

Before that, the stage was greased by the slick moves of the dancers as it was make-or-break night. The votes came in as the dancers projected their hearts and souls from the stage to the television screens in their final attempt to impress the viewers.

In the first segment, Xcalade Dancers were in throwback gears dancing to MC Hammer's hit Can't Touch This. Card Unit was a 'royal flush' as they commanded attention, smoothly break-dancing to Chris Brown's Transformer. Target Dancers put in a great performance, dancing to Omarion's I Get It In, and Untouchable Squad was their usual dramatic and hilarious self as they once again did a dance off to a Justin Timberlake hit, trying to win over a mannequin they brought onstage.

final showdown

In the final showdown, Target Dancers faced Untouchable Squad and Card Unit faced Xcalade Dancers. At the end of the first round, judge Orville Hall went with Target Dancers as he said, "There is a spirit that you dancers dance with that comes from within". He told Untouchable Squad that only one dancer got his attention. For the second round, it was Xcalade who he said "rose to the occasion".

Judge Kerry Ann Henry went with Target Dancers for the first round and Card Unit for the second, but not before informing Xcalade Dancers that, "I tip my hat to you but I have to give it to Card Unit".

Adding a little spice to the evening were performances by 2009 Dancin' Dynamites winners Unlimited Dancers, Baby Tash, members of Shady Squad, To-Isis and Ding Dong and the Ravers Clavers.

After Card Unit was declared the winner, the audience went wild, flocking the stage with arms outstretched wanting to congratulate the duo.

Card Unit won $500,000 cash, a Sharp component set, Red Label wine, American Airline tickets for a four-day-three-night vacation at the Hilton in Washington DC and LIME Sony Ericsson W 200 cellphones, as well as computers to the winners' primary school. They will also take part in the 'Battle of the Five' finale at Mas Camp on May 23.

Christopher Clarke of second-place winners, Target Dancers, said: "It's a happy feeling, but this is not the last ah Target, because I want the people to know that we have a lot to offer. We have our own productions, rhythm and dance that we are putting out."

Tripplx X from Untouchable Squad which placed third, sought to advise dancers that if they decide to enter the competition next year, they must be prepared to dedicate all of their time to it.

"You have to married the competition, because it is demanding, mi a tell yuh, but still mi haffi thank it because now mi fitness up deh now," he said

Despite placing fourth, Xcalade Dancers were optimistic, as they still exuded a lot of energy backstage saying, "Jamaica look out fi wi next year, because wi coming back full force!" said dancer Carey Cunningham.
