I still haven't seen any video of this momentous occasion.

Get caught doing what? What loop am I now out of?

The Olympics committee is cracking down on piracy and even taking down people's phone recordings of their TVs. This is the best thing we have of this video.

Thanks so much for this! Glad to have finally seen it!

You know...the thing is that without context it's really not the worst thing in the world. She clearly has more breakdancing ability and knowledge than the average person on the steet.

But it's certainly odd...it's like she didn't get the memo that she was supposed to be doing tricks in her routine, and the few she attempted had poor technique and were not executed very well. It's like someone pitted some random kid from the high school track team against Usain Bolt. It's like...ok...compared to the general population who isn't trained in track and field, the high schooler has some knowledge and ability. But compared to an Olympian? Why are they even up there?

Except my comparison in this scenario is a bit ironic considering all the kids wiped the floor with her.

All in all a confusing as hell scenario.

I haven't really found a good clip of the match but ozzyman has a review of her performance. He showed most of the "good" ones.

Man the one on the right just hunkers down in the middle of the trail, no roosting! And they taste dusty when they fly up and hit you in the face while you're mountain biking at night.
