Beijing Company Launches Video Series Showcasing Youth in 4 Sports
China’s New Power highlights breaking, skateboarding, rock climbing and surfing through footage of athletes and enthusiasts captured over nearly a year.
How we reported this
A Beijing company has launched a short video series that documents Chinese youth pursuing breaking, skateboarding, rock climbing and surfing.
The project arrives at a time when interest in these sports continues to grow among younger residents in the capital, offering viewers a direct look at training routines and personal milestones rather than polished highlights.
Local production and reach
China Interactive Sports Technology Invention Co., Ltd. coordinated the filming from its base in Beijing, sending crews to city streets, training sites and coastal areas. The resulting material focuses on unscripted moments such as repeated attempts at new moves and the satisfaction after completing them.
Footage includes Beijing-linked production values captured with cinema-grade equipment, showing athletes and everyday participants side by side. The series avoids heavy editing to preserve the sequence of effort and outcome.
Athletes and stories featured
Among those shown is Liu Qingyi, who integrated elements of traditional movement into her breaking routines after earning a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics. Speed climber Wu Peng appears after setting an Asian record of 4.77 seconds. Skateboarder Zheng Haohao, the youngest competitor at those Games, is also profiled, along with a seven-year-old climber known as Doujiang and an office worker named Azai who took up surfing.
Additional scenes record skateboarders practicing in Huizhou streets. The material was gathered across roughly twelve months by a dedicated documentary crew.
Viewers can find the videos on the English-language site of the Chinese Olympic Committee as well as YouTube, Twitter, Instagram and Reddit. The company has stated that the clips are intended to convey straightforward determination without added commentary.
Residents in Beijing can access the series directly through those platforms to observe the documented sessions and decide whether similar activities suit their own schedules.
