A B-Boy representing the XVII Generation crew.
Born and raised in Barcelona, Spain but now living in Warsaw, Poland, Johnny Fox is a member of the Spanish crew, XVII Generation.

Influenced by his father, who he describes as an old school B-Boy, he started breaking at the age of 13 and has developed a style he states as elegant, elaborate and fluid.
Taking his breaking name from the combination of his real name, Jonatan, and the fact he believes he has the personality of a fox, Jonny won the 2019 Legits Blast online solo competition and the 2018 Warsaw Challenge solo competition. He also claimed second place with his crew in the 2021 3-on-3 Floor Wars competition.

Living his life by the philosophy of ‘passion, perseverance and sacrifice’, Johnny works as a pre-school Spanish teacher and is a regular contender in the Red Bull BC One E-Battle, having made it to the top 8 for a third straight year.

You will have your e-card as an app on your phone. Which includes your photo, ID number, nationality, division, D.O.B, age group, license expiry,
federation details, link to contact your federation admin, and a barcode.

Why do I need an E-card?
To enter WDSF events you

need a min number which is an ID number.
You will be able to use this e-card to enter events online, and when you arrive at the event your barcode will be scanned.
