And although he didnt win, his performance thrust him onto the global breaking stage.
Suddenly, he was flooded with invitations to compete in tournaments all over the world.
Montalvo knew if he wanted to succeed, he had to go big or go home.
I want viewers to see how exciting and dynamic breaking is," he explained.
“I want viewers to feel excited when they watch it and see how evolved breaking has become.
TheOlympic breaking competitiontakes place in the newly transformed Parc Urbain La Concorde in the heart of Paris.
The dancer with the most points wins.
But these are not the same moves that kids from the 80s grew up on.
In fact, one of B-Boy Victors signature moves is thebackflip flare.
