A number of the team members originally performed with the SickStep dance troupe, but later joined other dancers to form Quest. D-Trix and Victor Kim are also part of the world famous b-boy crew Flexible Flav which recently won Freestyle session in 2008 and placed second at Kb-boy World Masters in Korea in 2008.
Five out of the ten active members of Quest Crew have appeared on So You Think You Can Dance. Crew member Ryan 'Ryanimay' Conferido appeared on the first season as a finalist. He was eliminated in the fourth week. Steve Terada, Victor Kim, and Hokuto 'Hok' Konishi had all auditioned for the second season. Steve and Victor were both eliminated in the early Las Vegas rounds. Hok nearly made it to the top 20, but was only in the United States on a student visa, and was ineligible to be employed which led to his dismissal from the program. After obtaining a work permit, he had returned for the third season along with Dominic 'D-Trix' Sandoval. This time, both made it to the top 20. Hok was eliminated during the fifth week of competition and D-Trix was eliminated in the seventh week.
