New vid up on MTBCut, completely unwatchable though. Oddly once on littermag they seem to work fine, but litter doesn't have this one up yet :(

Yep mtbcut says I need to do this thing and the next.
You do it and then it still doesnt work.
As said it works fine on litter...

Flipper-lying down even for karting pics!

Is there a 'sunday fanboy' item I can use for being a flipper fanboy? Like, should I buy a certain tripod and rave about it incessantly? ;)

Thanks litter for posting his AND SVENs pics.


Litter made a funny:
Rando is not sure how his new proto Giant is going to perform this weekend since the finals are not going to be held on a Sunday.


And Anneke is not wearing the EC edition THE lid anymore? such an unimportant detail, but I notice things like this.

So the finals are advertised on freecaster as being 18:50 UK time. I presume that means the actual racing will be starting at 19:00 yeah? When will it be finished? Trying to plan my evening around it if possible.

No rain this morning! Ground is dry, so it doesnt look like it rained overnight. Calling for thunderstorms today, but currently it looks promising. I should have some interview clips up in an hour or so.

on a slightly unrelated note, I have decided that cam mccaul is the best interviewer ever after watching that, you can never quite tell when he's making fun of the guy.

"so almost as much as a human head" "yah, well, some people have bigger heads..." "a human head weighs at pounds mark."

awesome, mad props freecaster

OK. So Freecaster is officially the coolest thing to happen to downhill racing in a long time. The coverage they're providing is amazing. I would love to watch a coursewalk for every race. Great idea and great work to those involved!

Being too lazy to scroll through all the posts, can anyone tell me if it's usual Sunday racing or is it today in just under 4 hours?

All right, need help, stuck at work and all the sites that show the race are blocked, not worth trying to hack in. Please keep the updates going throughout the race... PLEASE!!!

the freecaster clock currently says 3hr:40mins till start, funny because I leave for whistler in 3hr:40mins. Good thing I got my laptop to sync with my mobile phone for some high speed internet goodness.

When I try to open the freecaster page for the live broadcast I get this "Fatal error: Call to a member function xpath() on a non-object in /usr/local/apache-2.2.8/sites/freecaster.tv/_g_xml_core.php on line 18"

EDIT: It works now. Weird.

No crazy lead by anyone, disappointing.

I was about to say "how can it still be going on", but then I remembered that (oddly) the quickest go first in qualifying. Tight at the top eh, and presumably that's how it'll stay wityh all the fast riders having come down already.
