Them skin suites are looking better and better :huh:
Haahaha, actually I agree! :biggrin: Poor dude, he's got his signature shoes that don't colour coordinate that good as it is, now them pants too.. He's one of our biggest pro's, but he looks like everyday Lars from around the corner.

That green TLD suit with a flash onnit is quite cool in its own way. Sam oughta sport one this weekend. :thumb:



Gotta say, this race has got me more pumped than the fact that I'm going away for some three days of resort riding this weekend. :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:
I know, bringing my notebook cus there's no way that I'm missing this..

Still loading, but i heard the start of Dethklok - Thunderhorse. This video is leaps and bounds ahead of any other wc video so far this season.
awesome thanks for letting us know what the song was, I was wondering who it was!

yes the course looks savage, and the irish guys seem to be going pretty good, one on the yellow DHR! and ben reid, holy crap, how he turns his bike like that is unreal!

can't wait for the race!!!!

Was anyone else blown away by the MTBCut footage???!? The quality kind of sucked, but the footage was insane. Peat makes an amazing save at around the 1:00 mark, and then that footage of Kovarik around 2:01 was just nasty . . . really gives you a sense of the speed and violence of it all.

The sole east cost gravity nominee, Geoff Ulmer is out. Broken collarbine and concussion training in Pila, Italy.
Wow. I feel bad for Geoff, has to be super rough. He's such a good guy and was always super nice when I hung out with him and his old man. My condolences Geoff!

Freecaster's vid is professional enough to be wrapped up and sold. Absolutely awesome.

Kovarik in the MTBCut vid is unreal. Such style.

Any bets on whether Hill will use the berm after the floating drop?

This track looks mint. I love wide tracks - line choices galore!

Nope, works fine on Mozilla Firefox. Perhaps Freecaster only works for people who can spell?
Don't be hard on the youth, they have enough pressure today; gotta have the right cloth brands, hair doo, generally know wverything that's "in", go to school. It's a hard life... ;)

Works fine with Opera too. I mixed FC up with MTBCUT who only works with IE (at least on my dodgy notebook).



That MTBCUT footage from day2 was really good! Some guy told me some time back that Kovaric ALWAYS runs short sleeve shirts, and true to his prophecy he destinguished him self on the track in one. Very stylish in baby blue. :clapping:

Certainly freecaster's vid visual quality is SO much better than MTBCut - freecaster I can watch fullscreen without thinking much of it, mtbcut is pretty bad in a small window, terrible fullscreen.

now if somone could just figure out a way for me to record the live broadcast so I wouldn't have to miss the darn thing!!!
No worries. Freecaster will replay both the DH and the 4X, plus we will post highlights and clips on the best runs. But live is live and if you want to share it all, we will have a live chat that allows everyone to cheer on and liaise with Rob and Tim in the commentary booth.

Live Chat! Awesome, another cool new feature. Hope it doesn't slow down the feed or anything like that though...

Really cool support from the guys at Freecaster, the mediatisation of this sport is definitely going to go further with guys like you! Cheers.

oh wow...if you click on the link on Freecaster for the live feed, it issues the countdown AND shows me the start time in Eastern Standard Time. I friggin' love technology!!

I've got an S-video cable for my laptop to flatscreen TV, but the quality of the image sucks. LCD TV is a long way off in my future.
