Red Bull Breakdancing Contest Barcelona 2011

July 19, 2011 by Luke Norris

Breakdancing will never get old for me. B-boys just seem to be getting more and more tech with their moves. “Teatre Grec hosted one of the most prestigious B-boying international events. More than 1,400 people have attended Red Bull BC One Qualifier and witnessed the victory of the Portuguese Lagaet, who has already ensured his participation in the World Final, where the best 16 B-boys in the world will compete on November 26th in Russia.”

Since branching to Hong Kong. You soon realise when space is measured by square foot not square metre. Space is a luxury. Lucky for my business, as long as I have a laptop and WiFi I can pretty much work from anywhere.

Taj Reid

We all have our ‘must haves’ when it comes to travelling. For me I seem to travel with more and more I.T. equipment. What started off as just a mobile phone is now an iPhone and a Blackberry, a 15 inch or 17″ MacBook Pro, my iPad, chargers, Leica ‘Safari Edition’ camera, Burton travel hoodie, tracksuit pants, Monocle notepad, magazines, two packs of cigarettes, a spare lighter, business cards, sunglasses, lip balm, passport case and Beats Headphones. All this goes into my LV carry-on wheelie.

Here’s some highlight shots from the interview. Including Taj Reid, Mike West, Kevin Poon, Jarrett Reynolds and Frank Liew.
