His moves have a high degree of difficulty and are always very clean. He represents two crews: Full Force and Super Crew. Being the veteran of the RED BULL BC ONE, RONNIE is the only B-Boy competing for the 4th time! He won 2nd place at the RED BULL BC ONE in Switzerland in 2004, 3rd place in Berlin in 2005 and 2nd place again in 2006 in Brazil. RONNIE was living in Guam when he first saw breaking. Growing up, he watched his older cousins perform in the late 80's, but he didn't start B-Boying himself until the mid 90's, while living in California. He was first motivated by watching his cousins from California practice, but most of all he was inspired by watching his older brother Rodolfo and RONNIE's goal was to be as good as him. When his family moved to Las Vegas, Rodolpho stopped dancing, while RONNIE kept at it. In addition to B-Boying, RONNIE is an artist who loves to draw. He's interested in pretty much anything that enables you to express your creative individuality and is a big fan of Hip Hop because it's a culture of self-expression. The members of Full Force are like blood brothers with a lot of history beyond breaking. They have been representing together for almost 12 years and are still going strong. Their logo is a tree symbolizing the crew as family because, like the tree, they continue to grow with deepening roots. RONNIE is inspired by all B-Boys that are passionate about the dance, not just the best ones, but also kids practicing on a street corner. These are the B-Boys that motivate him the most because they remind him of when and where he first started and of the journey he travelled to arrive where he is today. He is inspired by passionate people in general and by all people who do their best in any arena. RONNIE's dance style is well rounded. He combines all the elements of breaking into an integrated set. His signature moves include different variations of freezes and intricate footwork transitions combined with power moves. RONNIE's battle strategy is essentially to stay true to himself, doing what he does best, the best possible way he can. He feeds off the crowd's energy in the hopes that they feed off of his. RONNIE expects this year's RED BULL BC ONE to be the most important 1 on 1 competition ever. Unlike the past years, this year's competing B-Boys had the chance to already battle on the RED BULL BC ONE stage in the qualifiers, soak up the amazing energy and know what's awaiting them. Therefore RONNIE expects it to be more balanced than in the last years. "It's kind of funny that I am still here. I am the only B-Boy that has been representing every year. So either people want to see me lose because they're tired of me, or they finally want to see me take first!" RONNIE sees being part of the RED BULL BC ONE for the 4th time as a blessing. He will definitely give his all and is going to battle to finally take the title home!
