@mattp she didn't have a bad day here but clearly wanted more. Turned in too quick at 4 buoy and caught it on the way back by. Stopped so hard bent the mikro-just. Plate didn't move though. Testament to the product. Get after it again tomorrow. Alejandra skied really well so congrats to her.

and this is how I feel about most webcasts.

the work of http://www.webcast-tv.com/ is the one notable exception

@gjohnson I am aware of her accomplishments. I don't think the average baller knows who she is yet. She's a very nice and very accomplished young woman.

@rockdog I can't say for sure what is going on at Moomba but typically there is not a hard line to any ski site so the webcast is pushed up by cellular data signal. At a crowed venue signal is shared by thousands of people and we get crap.

 

In other words most ski sites simply are not wired for high speed internet and the cost to bring it in is not small. We can not seem to get most events to buy the ad fee version of UStream - how are we going to get them to pay for a cable?

 

Guys like @Kelvin make it work for events like the Malibu but it would cost money no one wants to pay to really do it right.

Who are you pulling for? I want to see everyone ski well but it makes it more interesting if you are cheering for someone.

 

my list:

1. Vaughn

2. Howley - got to cheer on the hometown boy

3. Winter

4. Asher

 

Anyone know why Detrick is not there? He would be #2 on my list.

someone will post soon, but only big time surprise was JT missing his 12M pass. Feel bad for him. Great guy. River skiing, you never know. Especially that river

Nate, Corey, T-Gas, Will, Freddy, JMac, Joel Howley and 1 more that I'm just blanking on right now. Sedlemajer?

Watching so many gates pulled in the finals is tough to watch. Completely changes the feel of the competition. What if a missed gate in the finals was a 3 buoy penalty or something. Would keep it a lot more interesting. Would have liked to see how far down the line ALL of those skiers could go in the finals, regardless of a missed gate. Great skiing by all.
