no he didn't. people in this comment section have 0 breaking literacy. hong10 has never done a elbow 1.5 catch to halo, or a headstand baby hold, hong10 always has his hand down when he crosses his leg like that. i mean.. lithe-ing was not doing original moves, but he wasn't biting hong10 either. people are so dumb its sad

@@dagger_wristhe was responding

@@dagger_wrist arm wrapped under leg into back rollover and hold pose into airchair(lithe-ing touched head so not exactly airchair) is 100% a combo that belongs to hong10. small things like hand placement might be an argument against biting a freeze, but this was a 3-4 move combo

@@gracadulo6111how is he responding if it was the first round? Hong10 didn’t even go out yet 😂

Hong10 looks tired already in the third round. He quick take a drink after finish 😂

it's time to drop separation and embrace unification

@@zan7838 unification of what? Biting and copying? Breaking is in its essence originating and expressing your own movements not who can copy the best.

That’s what we call answer. He responded well.

@@gracadulo6111that’s a bite bro

​@@Shamrockavellieum he's saying he can do his moves. It'd be a bite if he did it against someone else. Get a clue.

@@buddyboye4203Not true at all lol buddy been biting Hong 10 for a while now. He uses hong 10’s stuff all the time. He’s a big ass biter he doesn’t even change shit up he just flat out bites whole ass sets. Stop defending this shit.

@@buddyboye4203 Not a good response. If he could respond with something similar but his own would be a better than literally doing Hong 10’s combo lol

Exactly, just like figure skating, skateboard and gymnastic. You can do a triple axel, well I can do a quadruple axel. You can do a tre flip down a 9 sets, while, I can do a Nolie tre flip down a 10 sets. Double back flip on the gymnastic floor, please, I can do a triple black flip with a half twist.

O cara morde vários movimentos mano, arsenal só se for dos outros

can you please let everyone know what you got those information from? i see there is some bite from the chinese bboy, but not surprise because biting exist since the breaking was born, but could you please tell everyone what source told you the chinese government force the olympic society to give up their standard over somebody called liter ing, not hong 10. KZfaq is a place for free speech i am not against you, but hopefully what your saying is not from a high school drop out, our some housewife or janitor, or just anybody wanting to disgrade the olympic society. please show your source. yes you!

I can see Robin throwing that shit entire day

Where are you getting your information from? The judging system used for breaking in the Olympics has been public knowledge for 2 years now and is comprised of 3 categories: physicality, originality, and musicality. I'm not giving an opinion on the judging for this battle, but the result could've been Hong 10 took originality, and Lithe-ing took physicality and musicality. The people who created the judging system (Storm and Renegade) have emphasized before that while originality is important, it is only 1 aspect of breaking, especially competitive breaking. There are other factors, like physicality and musicality, that are all equally weighted.

that bite-ling dude, he legit bit every top bboy lol. He didn't even use his move, he is like Kakashi from naruto. Just straight doing signature from other bboy to the top lmao. Even bit Lee's move during the final.

I would think Olympic scoring would be different than other BBoy battles as they have their own governing body to break down the criteria. Since Olympic is a sporting event, therefore, we have to look at these competitions in the frame of a sport than art. I would think that they might score similar to figure skating where there're the technical points and the components/performance points. Probably the same in the floor exercise of gymnastic. In figure skating, the skaters have to perform necessary moves for the judges to grade objectively like how one skater execute the triple axel, if not all skaters won't take the risk of trying to do a quadruple to score higher than those that only can do triple or double. Therefore, if there're no set standards for technical scoring in sports, then the skaters, gymnasts and Breakers will just move well with the music with no one attempting to do hard moves. Therefore, to answer your question and looking at examples of other sports that have artistic merits - I think originality might be part of the scoring system, but, to point again that it's a sporting event, then they have to see how well a human body can achieve in their absolute movements with their execution. I think recent skateboarding being part of the Olympics can also be another good example of how to score. Overall, a move is original when first done by someone until it becomes an established vocabulary of set discipline. I won't go into deep on how Breakin' takes a lot of moves from other discipline too. But, we have to look at this from a lens that we have to judge and score this as a sport than a dance competition.

Breaking should always be about originality. Represent who YOU are. That would be the highest form of Breakin is what you contribute to the culture, i.e. originating moves, style, etc.

thats why bboys like Hong-10, Luigi, Crumbs, K-mel, etc are respected and legendary.

@@UbePapidifferent competitions have different rules. originality is important , like R16 there are 5 parts for judgement. maybe we don't know the standard of this competition. please tell me why Ami beat 671 on Red bull final stages? red bull has their rules.

bitething won't be legend lmao. There are ton of cats like him. They just quit.

😂😂😂😂😂

Era pra ser 3x0 viu e ainda tão dizendo que era pra hon10 ter ganhado 😅 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I mean it is Olympic. Originality isn't heavy weight. Dynamic is. Liting is perfect for Olympic since he is very dynamic and technical. Olympic is heavy toward the sport and athleticism. Can't deny he took a lot of signature from other bboy tho

These haters were generalizing, calling Litheing a biter and ignoring his execution, technique, variety, performativity, and musicality.

@@DayeNi because he is a biter. You Chinese don't have eyes?
