That's the original source.

 

The orginal article is very lacking in details. They've never reported on the subject before that. Paris 2024 was/is still interviewing IFs for inclusion. They get the date of the reveal wrong (21/02). 

 

I would still wait for a few days/weeks before starting a new career in mass murdering if I was you.

 

 

Damn it. I was just getting ready

Oh dear!

Replace breakdancing by squash and I’m very happy.

 

Not surprised to see climbing, surfing and skateboarding are favourites to survive, I think all three are extremely likely to be included in LA too.

I'm not fan of including any dancesport, but if you had to include something, Standard and Latin would be much more fitting for the Olympics. 

I’d take breaking over that (just because it’s way more exciting to watch)

It's sort of an equivalent of stuff like big air in the winter, where it's more about 'having fun' in their hipster baggy pants - or at least that's how they make it look - than about actually competing. Noooo thanks.
