“I’ve been a part of the Red Bull Family for more than 10 years now. Throughout this time, it’s been an amazing journey and a great experience to see how much Red Bull BC One has grown. I competed at the very first BC One World Final back in 2004 and haven’t missed a year yet,” said Ronnie Abaldonado, a Red Bull BC One All Star and Athlete. “Every year, from competing to judging, and now co-hosting, I’ve witnessed so many historical moments where legends were born. Through all their dedication, Red Bull has built this platform for these world-class B-Boys and B-Girls to showcase their passion through breaking!”

The art of breaking was cultivated and inspired by the growing hip-hop culture on the streets of New York City in the 1970s. Since then, breaking has become a cultural movement that spans communities and engages new breakers every day across the globe. Throughout the years, key figures of the breaking scene have become influential names in pop culture and hip-hop including, Red Bull BC One All Star, Richard ‘Crazy Legs’ Colon. ‘Crazy Legs’ daily efforts to showcase breaking as a means of self-expression has also allowed him to help other communities including his recent relief efforts in Puerto Rico, and around the world.
