because they own at life and if your one of the only corps doing something (out of the top 10) you may as well do it right

Well SCV has always had a cymbal line. And if you are one of the few who still do have a cymbal line, and you really preform for the crowd, you will be well known. Another fact is that it seems like the cymbal line does many visuals and does them openly for the crowd, not behind the line during a break.

The top few corps strive to be the best at everything they do. Why wouldn't SCV have a great cymbal line?

I know that, they have a cymbal line, most people don't, and that is the reason why they do cymbals great. But is there any history behind it? As in why do they still have cymbals if most people don't?

Because they've got such a history of good cymbal players always showing up at SCV camps. So they just choose to keep that tradition going strong...And since none of the other top corps have a cymbal line all the good cymbal players try to find a way to get to SCV camp which means they have a deep pool to choose from and always get insanely good people for their line
That and I would imagine the entire drumming community would hate SCV if they got rid of their cymbal line...
