Olympic breakdancing

He's getting the attention he wanted. He knew how this would play out

A bit of a shame that Raygun is getting all this (mocking) attention, cuz I (as someone who doesn't watch breakdancing) thought India, 671, N i c k a & Ami were all really good.

The women's bronze handball match between Denmark and Sweden was easy on the eye.

Gianmarco Tamberi still suffering from kidney issues probably won't do well in the final later.

Final of the pentathlon today at 1210 EST - I’m telling you it’s a great format and worth a watch.

I didn't even know there was a pentathalon. I only knew of the triathalon, septathalon, and decathalon.

 

[whtascene]

The B-boys so far are impressive.

Kurt Angle would be proud of this German Suplex.

You missed biathlon (my favorite Winter Olympics event).

Fencing
Horse jumping
Swimming
Shooting
Running!

The format is great - the first 4 traditionally give you your handicap for the final run - so the leader goes off first and then it’s a chase.

This one seems to be some sort of hybrid running and shooting - I think it’s like the biathlon where if you miss you have to do a penalty lap

I'm always waiting for these weightlifters to snap their shoulders backwards lol

I swear I remember that happening to some Korean or Chinese dude in 88 or 92

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

I'll know for future Olympics I can cross Judo and Taekwondo off my list of events to tune into.

 

[shogun]

I just read breakdancing won't be back for the 2028 games. SMH. Instead they're adding squash, cricket, lacrosse, baseball/softball, and flag football.

Didn’t even know the gold medal basketball game was today. Too many other real events going on

 

[Sinner]

The physicality of these b-boys is really impressive.

 

[QU!K]

I thought Victor lost against China

The young Aussie Mackenzie is killing this Rockwall

yeah Breaking was just the cultural tie in event that France chose like Karate was for Tokyo, Flag Football will be the cultural tie in event for 2028
