“I don’t know what it is about us white women and being attracted to breaking,” she added.
“I think even if it went to the second or third, that it still would have been a white b-girl representing.”
“That’s something that we’re always reflecting on – how can we get more people into breaking?”
Despite her performance being poorly received at the Olympics, Raygun says she qualified to compete by winning the Oceania qualifier, in which she didn’t know the judges beforehand.
“I was super nervous about it, to be honest, because even though I’d won all these competitions in Australia I was nervous about winning this one because it was all new judges.”
Although she is confident in her skills in Australia, she was aware she’d struggle against other countries’ dancers at the 2024 Games.
“As soon as I qualified, I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, what have I done?’ Because I knew that I was going to get beaten, and I knew that people were not going to understand my style and what I was going to do.”
She went on to lose all three round-robin battles, with a viral Change.org petition being created accusing Raygun of having “manipulated” Olympic qualification processes.
