Red Bull BC One World Finals Will Be Streaming Live From Brazil On
December 8, 2012
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The world's
most prestigious breaking championship heads to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on December 8, 2012 and fans worldwide can catch all
the action streaming live at 2pm
PST/5pm EST on
Redbullbcone.com. To make it to the Red Bull BC One World Finals is
an honor reserved for only the greatest B-Boys in the world. Each
year the competition gets tougher and tougher, resulting in the
most physically challenging power moves, jaw dropping freezes and
technical footwork with creative and diverse
combinations. This annual series features 16 B-Boys competing
for the coveted title that honors the extraordinary skills of
individual breakers.
Among the 16 finalists, four will represent the U.S.A. – including this year's North American
Regional Champion DomKey, Vicious Victor, Kid
David and 2011 World Champion Roxrite, who will return
to defend his title. If Roxrite secures the crown, he will be the
first B-Boy in history to win the Red Bull BC One World Finals two
years in a row. But he's up against, among others, this year's
youngest dancer, 15-year-old wunderkind Issei from Japan, who recently won this year's R16 in
Korea. This year it's anyone's game, with a highly competitive
roster rounded out by Arex (Colombia), Sunni (UK), Junior (France), ExacT (Russia), Differ (South Korea), and Hill (Mexico).
Stakes are at an all time high, as the competition will
eliminate one dancer each round until the best dancer is left
standing to claim the title. Judges score the B-Boys on their
battle strategy, power moves, dance foundation, fresh routine, and
overall style. This year the panel of judges, include: Red Bull BC
One All-Star Neguin (Brazil), Red
Bull BC One All-Star Taisuke (Japan), Moy (USA), Niek
(Holland), and Storm
(Germany).
DJ Skeme Richards will lay down the battle music and Brazilian
rapper Dughettu will MC the night. B-Boy legends Kwikstep and CROS1
will provide their special blend of color commentary for thousands
of worldwide fans watching the live stream at Redbullbcone.com.
