I just feel that it is way too subjective and hinges upon the viewpoint of the judges. Any other opinions?

It doesn't really feel like it fits with the "Olympics" type of activities, to me, since it's more of an art/expression form than, say, sprinting, or archery where you're competing with measurable numbers.
Idk, just how I feel about it. I agree, seems like it would be too subjective to actually measure in a competition

Its definitely a sport, just like similar sports, ice skating, ballet, and martial arts specifically katas.
these sports require a-lot of practice, strength, and skill. plus with their competitive nature while being physically demanding give it all the qualities of a sport.
I think the real question was whether it should be an "olympic" sport

I'm a breakdancer and figure skater. I do consider breakdancing to be an expressive type of sport, but I honestly do not know if it fits the parameters of an olympic sport where everything seems to be super technical. I do enjoy watching breakdancing competitions and they tend to judge real-time based on musicality, creativity, and solid fundamentals. Under fundamentals, you have subcategories such as footwork, power, and top rock, etc.
Even among breakdancers, the argument of what constitutes fair judging is one that has lasted for a long time haha. Honestly, I often think figure skating can afford to be a little less technical, like giving some more consideration to non-jump elements. It's kind of like judging based on who has the best power moves over good musicality. TLDR Breakdancing is a sport, sorry I got long winded there ;P
