Breakdancing debuted in the Olympics last year, while street dancing in general is making its mark in reality-competition shows – now these talented Hongkongers are giving it a new image
Among the 16 contestants at The Burrow in San Po Kong in April, the race for the crown came down to the sultry shoulder rolls and eccentric arm twirls of Chlorine, a whacker repping the red team, and the dips and twitches of Wing, the popper in blue.
The two teams’ flags fluttered over the rambunctious crowd of students and dancers, both aspiring and accomplished, as they raised their colour to cast their votes. By a narrow margin, 23-year-old Wing, or Chow Cheuk-wing, took home his first Red Bull championship. Sporting a basketball jersey over a checked shirt, a grey tie and dark jeans with oversized pockets, Chow was elated about this unexpected win, an impressive step up from his results last year, when he was voted off in the quarter-finals.
