The winner of the pre-qualification duel advances to round robin group A. So INDIA or [https://www.teenvogue.com/story/manizha-talash-afghanistan-breakdancer-olympics TALASH] had do three rounds more before round robin shortly afterwards. NOT a good concept and schedule planing. At the last round Talash carried a light blue cape with the print "FREE AFGAN WOMEN" and [https://nypost.com/2024/08/10/sports/refugee-breaker-manizha-talash-disqualified-at-olympics-for-free-afghan-women-cape/ got later disqualified for it] - seriously. However, the activism of the "Lion Girl" causes countless major newspapers across the globe, [https://www.faz.net/aktuell/politik/ausland/drei-jahre-taliban-in-afghanistan-selbstmorde-unter-maedchen-nehmen-zu-19910040.html such as the FAZ in Germany], printing articles about the situation of Afgan women. So Talash might say you could disqualify me a thousend times and I would do it over and over again. Talash had hardly a chance against the pro dancer India, but concerning to live the ideals of the hip-hop culture she is really a big one. Like B-BOY LEE said: "It is not you have to do like this and that, because that is right." In breaking there is no right or wrong.

====The Unique Seine River Opening Ceremony  7.30 p.m. CET (10.30 a.m. in Los Angeles)====
As anticipation builds for the world's most eagerly awaited sporting event, Paris 2024 President Tony Estanguet has announced the start time for the historic Opening Ceremony on the Seine.

[https://olympics.com/en/news/paris-2024-start-time-opening-ceremony-seine PARIS 2024 REVEALS THE START TIME FOR THE OLYMPIC GAMES OPENING CEREMONY ON THE SEINE]<br>
[https://olympics.com/en/news/whats-new-paris-2024-opening-ceremony PARIS 2024 INNOVATION: THE UNIQUE SEINE RIVER OPENING CEREMONY UNVEILED]
Eight-time Olympic gold medalist Usain Bolt was on the boat of the French delegation on 25 July 2023, sailing on the Seine for the presentation of the Olympic and Paralympic torch for Paris 2024. He was impressed by the experience and talked about the thousands of spectators who would be there a year after.

“I think it’s gonna be one of the best, if not the best Opening Ceremony. Imagine everybody standing outside, across the bridges cheering people up. It was never done before…”

The parade of athletes, which traditionally takes place within a stadium, will be held on the Seine, with boats for each national delegation equipped with cameras to allow viewers watching on TV and online to get a close-up view of all the action.

Winding their way from east to west, the 10,500 athletes will cross the centre of Paris - the main home of the Games, where they will showcase their sporting prowess over the following 16 days. Throughout the Opening Ceremony, athletes will appear on stage alongside performers in line with Paris 2024's goal of hosting a Games that is created for and by the athletes.

The parade will end its 6 km route in front of the Trocadéro, where the final elements of the ceremony and the celebratory shows will take place.

So we hope Logan will not get seasick and do throw-up in front of one or two billion TV watchers after boarding. Indeed over a billion TV watcher were confirmed. <ref>[https://www.nbcnews.com/sports/olympics/olympics-2024-opening-ceremony-watch-start-time-rcna163453 NBC - 2024 Paris Olympics: Céline Dion, boat parade and more highlights from the opening ceremony]</ref> ABC News stated 1,5 Billion TV watchers on the Opening Show.<ref>[https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory/olympics-opening-cermony-latest-french-rail-network-sabotaged-112297976#:~:text=One%20of%20the%20most%2Dwatched,is%20on%20the%20low%20side.

====How breaking is judged and scored in Olympics====
An odd-numbered panel of judges score each round and each battle, and judge breakers’ performance based on five criteria:

*<u>Technique</u>: Certain moves have certain criteria, such as keeping feet flexed versus toes pointed on many moves, Edra says. But technique also includes the judges’ view of how athletic the breakers are, and how well they control their bodies.
*<u>Vocabulary</u>: Breakers must perform a variety of moves in multiple positions—both in down rock and top rock—to score well here.
*<u>Execution</u>: While this may sound similar to technique, the World DanceSport Federation rule book says that on execution, breakers are judged on how cleanly their moves are performed—that is, they don’t mess up—and how distinct one more is from the next. The moves should flow together, but not blend together.
*<u>Musicality</u>: Here, breakers are judged on their ability to not just perform incredible moves, but to dance—staying on beat, and timing their moves to the music.
*<u>Originality</u>: Louis believes this is the most important criteria. “Having that personal style is what sets people apart,” he says. “I could learn every move out there, but it’s about what can I bring to the table? What can I add to breaking?”

Instead of assigning a number to each of these criteria, judges use a digital slider, sliding towards the breaker who is winning the head to head matchup in that category. So if Breaker A is performing with better technique than Breaker B, judges will slide the slider towards their side—either a little bit, or all the way.
Each of the five categories accounts for 20 percent of the final score. Based on the balance of the sliders in these five criteria, one breaker is declared the winner of each round.

====The Olympic Future of Breaking====
Unfortunately, it’s already been announced that there will be no breaking competition at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.  But a successful run in Paris could pave the way for the sport’s return at the Brisbane Olympics in 2032. Baseball was left out of the Paris Games, but it will be back in the 2028 Olympics.

The Top 7 are qualified for sure, if they don't break contigent limits. E.g., just two Japanese can go to the Olympics, even when AYUMI, AMI and RICKO repped the Shanghai competition. Or just one qualificant from the USA, CHN and AUS more are allowed, because the B-Girls SUNNY, 671 and RAYGUN take already a spot for their countries. 

Logistx was after the OQS Shanghai 2024 fourth in global standings with 38 points<br>

and she got fifth after the OQS Budapest 2024 with 36 points, leading to 74 points total and final fifth place, because although SYSSY had 74 points too, due regulation the Budapest results are preferred on a draw, made SYSSY fourth, she didn't need the host spot and SENORITA CARLOTA as next french in line got qualified. The Universal Spots are deployed according rankings, because every NOC claimed one, of course. Later it got public, B-Girl [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manizha_Talash Manizha Talash] got invited to join the 16 female breakers as [https://www.tiktok.com/@bbcnews/video/7371763062094712097 first Afghan B-Girl] who had to flee from the Taiban to Spain.

First 16 are qualifed for Round Robin. <br>
Just 10 B-Girls - LOGISTX, RIKO, KATE, SYSSY, AMI, AYUMI, YING ZI, VANESSA, STEFANI and ANTI - were qualfied in Shanghai for Round Robin as well and have best chances to qualify for the Olympics seven OQS Spots, if they finish the course not disqualified. Except the Ukrains STEFANI and KATE, who finished 9th and 10th, all advanced to the quarterfinals in Shanghai. And they can only be two Japanese qualifing due contigent limits. SISSY is the only french, and gets definitely more points total than SENORITA CARLOTA and is qualified by the host spot for Paris anyways, if she doesn't gain one of the seven spots. As to remind, there are two more spots assigned by the Tripartite Comission after OQS ended. So except one Japanese they are porperly already all in. <br>

AMI won the 50 points and the OQS Gold medal against AYUMI with 2 wins, who got 45 points and Silver. Both finished with 95 points total, but AMI ranked first because Budapest's result is preferred on a draw. Rico got third with 41 points and got Bronze, and LOGISTX was fifth place with 36 points this time. Huge shout out for B-Girl RICO (17), who got twice third, is third in final standings, but didn`t qualify due contigent limits. Of course, it hurts.

===Preparation, Lifestyle Change of Olympic Breakers and Culture Change of Breaking===
The Dance Magazine brought a great cover story by Jennifer Heimlich - [https://www.dancemagazine.com/breaking-2024-olympics-paris/#gsc.tab=0 Breaking New Ground: For the First Time in History, Dancers Are Competing at the Olympics] - with some interesting insides. Some Quotes:

====Resources====
Despite any debates over authenticity, one thing is clear: The Olympics are creating a high-performance support system for top-ranking breakers. The highest scorers from qualifying competitions are now part of Team USA, and have been flown to the Olympic facility in Colorado Springs a handful of times for training camps. They’ve been given strength and conditioning coaches, sports psychologists, dietitians, and health-care coverage. Some have also received grants, like the one from the Women’s Sports Foundation that Chang has used to rent studio space so she doesn’t have to dance outside. “There’s a lot of different resources that we, as breakers, have never seen before,” says Louis. 

That said, because breaking is brand-new to the Olympics, the infrastructure and monetary support lags far behind more established sports like rowing or swimming. “They’re being treated like the world’s greatest athletes. We’re being treated more like very talented dancers. That’s the disconnect right now,” says Ivan “Flipz” Velez, who will be the judge representing North America in Paris. There’s reportedly been some scrambling involved as WDSF figures out the details of breaking becoming an Olympic sport. Dancers say they had to stay flexible and adapt quickly to changes as organizers decided exactly what the judging system would look like, how music would be handled, and what type of floor would be used. 

====Lifestyle Change====
Many of breaking’s Olympic hopefuls have already seen their lives change dramatically. Montalvo shares that he’s had a slew of press requests and has sponsorship deals from major brands like Red Bull, Delta, Comcast, Jack in the Box, and Athletic Brewing. “There’s a lot of media that wants to know what breaking is all about,” he says. “This has been the busiest year of my life.” 

Choi says that juggling appearances and events along with corporate partnerships and media interviews has actually made it tricky to prepare the way she wants to. “It’s been really amazing but also challenging, because I know I need to be focusing on training for the Olympics,” she says.

Even dancers who didn’t know whether they would qualify until June upended their lives for the possibility. Chang says she stopped working as a restoration ecologist to pursue breaking as a career. She now dances with her crew two to three hours a day, five days a week; cross-trains for an hour four days a week; does biweekly sessions with a sports therapist; and joins regional competitions for practice on some weekends. In addition to physical prep, Louis shares that he’s been studying his past competitions to analyze his strengths and weaknesses, dissecting videos of competitors, and watching footage from the 1980s to diversify his arsenal of movements.

====Culture Change====
Of course, some elements of a traditional battle have been tweaked in its translation for the Olympic stage. Most notable is the more regimented scoring. “In cultural breaking events, it’s based off of opinion—it’s super-subjective,” says Montalvo. But at Olympic competitions and qualifiers, there’s a structured points system. That rewards a slightly different strategy, Montalvo believes: “You have to be more explosive from beginning to end, getting straight to the point, doing big moves on the beat, ending off with a big freeze. And if you’re too complex, really being super-creative, I feel like you don’t get too far.” Because judges are ticking off particular boxes to tally the score, dancers need to be well-rounded, whereas, Louis says, in other competitions a breaker could just do one thing really well and win with that. 

Po Chun Chen, aka “Bojin,” head of the breaking division of the World DanceSport Federation (the organization helping to oversee breaking at the Olympics), acknowledges that it’s been a challenge to balance the sport and the culture in a dance form started by oppressed people looking for a way to freely express themselves. “We cannot lose the original soul of breaking, which is the freedom,” he says. One way in which the WDSF is attempting to honor the hip-hop roots of breaking at the Olympics is by starting out the competition with the judges showing off their own skills in a cypher as a way of celebrating the culture. Though the practice would be unthinkable in figure skating or gymnastics, “this is our culture,” says Chen.
