given your choices, i would say wu shu, but that depends on the region it comes from.
for my money acrobatic skills are most clearly demonstrated by the brazillian art of capo wea.
i am certain i have mis spelled the style..no disrespect intended!

Wushu, also known as modern wushu or contemporary wushu, is both an exhibition and a full-contact sport derived from traditional Chinese martial arts. Created in the People's Republic of China after 1949, wushu has spread globally through the International Wushu Federation (IWUF), which holds the World Wushu Championships every two years; the first World Championships were held in 1991 in Beijing and won by Clark Zhang.

Wushu is composed of two disciplines: Taolu forms are similar to gymnastics and involve martial art patterns and maneuvers for which competitors are judged and given points according to specific rules. The forms comprise basic movements (stances, kicks, punches, balances, jumps, sweeps and throws) based on aggregate categories traditional Chinese martial art style and can be changed for competitions to highlight one's strengths. Competitive forms have time limits that can range from 1 minute, 20 seconds for the some external styles to over five minutes for internal styles.

Either Capoeira because it is a martial art diguised as acrobatic dance or Wu Shu because it is martial arts fused with gymnastics...

If you want to do the coolest stuff just do gymnastics, you will learn how to do all of their tricks better than they do.

wtf is Hwa Rang Do? probably proper ninjustsu because the climb walls learn high jumping and flips, even how to jump off an opponents back and flip over behind them, but shaolin kunf fu would **** on all three as far as acrobatic feats go
