Baller disland Posted March 9, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2017 Maybe its me but somethings wrong with the web cast. It seems they have overlapping commercials with water ski adds mixed in with the generic Ustream ones. Its so bad its pretty much un-watchable.

Baller ColeGiacopuzzi Posted March 9, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2017 I'm stoked that Moomba as a live stream. I totally understand that there trying to give a lot of screen time to the sponsors, but like @disland said its almost unwatchable. There showing the same loop of sponsors between every slalom pass or trick pass... Radar Skis Follow Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MrJones Posted March 9, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2017 Watched a very little bit at work this afternoon. Seems every time I clicked in there was an ad on so I gave up. From past webcast I assume ads mean that it's down time between events. I understand there strategy, but I don't think it's going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skier2788 Posted March 9, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2017 They are playing commercials all the time. Between passes during passes.... All the time. If you pay I think they go away. I just turn it on and listen to the audio. It's great! Superchicken wins Moomba with 2.5@38 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhofert Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 It has been playing much better for me after the break. Still dont care for the commercials. This being my first time watching I would really like a bit more in the way of coverage, replays and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller aupatking Posted March 9, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2017 Maybe they're listening. It's been good as it gets later. Don't know what it takes to run a replay, but sure would be nice to have a replay or two instead of immediately cutting to commercial. The sponsors are getting plenty air time. They cut almost immediately to ads after a fall. I guess that's part of it, but I hope we get some replay in the big rounds to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Kelvin Posted March 9, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2017 Don't hold your breath on anything changing for the big rounds. The Moomba webcast hasn't changed in several years. Looks like they are trying to do an HD feed this year without also sending out lower bitrate video. That's gonna increase the dropouts for many viewers.

Baller Edbrazil Posted March 11, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 11, 2017 Nick Parsons just missed out, based on how ties are resolved. (Without runoffs, but by seeding, perhaps needed because of time restrictions on use of the river.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Bill22 Posted March 12, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 12, 2017 @ALPJr I am surprised no one has commented on that tie with the men being equal to the course record, also held by CP.

tbrenchley Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Has the rule changed on exit gates or am I not the only one scratching my head that Winter got scored 5.5 after trying to take that hit out the gates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 13, 2017 Author Administrators Share Posted March 13, 2017 Pretty happy to see T-Gas win. Those conditions don’t look bad but I am pretty sure it is super challenging out there. Gates and one ball from the bridge end seem super hard. Whitney seems to have used some strategy to take 39 from the other end to get an easier one ball for the win. On the other hand the two ball from the other end eat a number of skiers including @FWinter.

Baller JordanOz Posted March 13, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 13, 2017 Freddy smashed the course record for jump, was awesome watching it on the bank! The crowd went nuts, which was great considering that about 30% were from the skiing fraternity. Really is an amazing atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller rockdog Posted March 13, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 13, 2017 And Jacinta, 4 years & 31 consecutive victories. Unbelievable! 3 jumps, 3 course records. Great slalom final, felt for Jmac, long way to come to misgrab a handle on a relatively simple pass, he was pretty filthy. And as always, come the big show and TGas is ready to go, he has a great ability to thrive under pressure, lots of experience I guess goes a long way, great champion.

Baller Stevie Boy Posted March 13, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 13, 2017 Good Scalp by Tgas, nice to see that it's not all about one skier, the top end scores look really close, should be a good competitive year for Mens Slalom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller wtrskior Posted March 13, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 13, 2017 Pretty sure Jmac got bounced around coming into the course at 11 and didnt get the gate approach he wanted. You could see the boat porpoise about as he was pulling out. He doesn't switch up his equipment too often and posted online this winter he was still dialing in his pro build.

Baller auskier Posted March 14, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 14, 2017 @Splasheye I asked Freddy about that. He said he thought he had 3 over 70m at a UK event a number of years ago, but not as far as his third. It is probably the highest totaled or averaged distance for a single round of jump ever.

Baller Edbrazil Posted March 14, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks to @auskier for the input. Not an easy project, as scorebooks don't tend to show all 3 jumps. And, sometimes when a jumper kicks a big one, they'll come in and pass on taking another. Somewhat related, from the Old Days: Back in 1964, Joe Cash told me about when he was skiing at Cypress Gardens in the 50s, the jump act would start with a single by each of the 3 jumpers. They were also measured, and he said at times the sum of the 3 would be over 400 feet. That was when the record was under 140'. He said it was nice in tournaments, so he could get wider on the boat without the other 2 guys there. (Maybe Mike Osborn & Buster MacCalla).
