Call for participation: Red Bull BC One E-Battle

Participants can access the competition's website from 7 August and submit their breaking videos to participate in an online battle that will be judged by Russia’s b-boy Aslan, Finland’s b-girl AT and France’s b-boy Lilou.

The event will be hosted on www.redbullbcone.com, and anyone will stand a chance to be in the Red Bull BC One World Final.

“We have no clue when the next face-to-face battle will take place,” South African b-boy Man Like B said. “We’ve been training and now here’s another platform made available to showcase the experience and knowledge we’ve gained while waiting to battle. I’ve done a few online battles and I’m not going to lie, it’s not what we’re used to, it comes with its difficulties but also a lot of benefits at the same time.”

For the first time in Red Bull BC One history, the winners of the E-Battle – including one b-boy and b-girl – will be flown to the 2021 World Final host country and awarded a guaranteed place in the next Red Bull BC One World Final line-up. Additionally, the winners will receive Technics SL-1200/1210MK7 Direct Drive Turntables.

The application period is set from August 7 to 31, and the top 64 b-boys and b-girls will be announced on September 7. The competition will run from September to October, with the Red Bull BC One E-Battle World Final set for October 24.
