[Ali]

is there somewhere to read event timings for each day?

[Horton]

@Ali you can find everything from that giant red link button at the top of the page, but the answer to your question is the link below.

It's interesting that while it is the TWBC crew doing the boardcast there isn't any logos or mention of TWBC on site, must be an agreement between them and IWWF?

Thanks to TWBC for bringing world-class production quality to all Series-Groupings at the World tournament.  Their timing of live, double replays and back to live is perfect every time and Toni's observations and commentary are better every year.

TWBC brand is so strong now, they dont need any logo's

[Horton]

I am speculating.... they are under contract from IWWF and self promotion is not part of the deal ( as if they need to self promote )

Production value on the coverage today is at a new level. Great job, WBC!

[MISkier]

Simultaneous Trick and Slalom was awesome.  Fast-paced and action-packed.

Would be nice to see the split screen used for interviews as well.

Did anyone else see someone chopping weeds on the shoreline during the men's series 1 prelim??  Odd time for landscaping work!

[Wish]

@Web yes..yes we did. Really bizarre. 

[75Tique]

Of course it goes without saying that the TWBC coverage was top notch. But it was over the top impressive when they started to cover two events simultaneously, obviously unplanned and a result of the weather delay. Tony and the broadcast booth didn’t miss a beat and extra kudos to the “guys and gals in the trailer” who did all that production without a pause or glitch. Well done!  

[rawly]

Like how Tony used moto lingo when one of the men in the trick finals landed on the crest of the wake and he referred to it as  CASING IT. Words just roll out of his mouth and he sees so much and describes it so well.

If you didn’t catch the change…

 

 

 

[Horton]

So men's jump is midnight PST?

[APB]

I’ll have to rewind the webcast and take a look.  Either it was needed to clear paths for skiers walking out of the water after a fall or it’s a great cover activity when removing one of those non-existent gators that every Florida ski site is devoid of.

[MichaelGoodman]

Looks like where he was chopping weeds may have been

for the path the jumpers were taking.

[Cooper_Trelawney]

@MichaelGoodman that makes sense.  I'm sure they planned to jump the entire tournament facing the other direction like in 2021 but when the wind came up out of the other direction,  they starting jumping on the west facing ramp so the jumpers could have a headwind.
