Cross Country

Go Boyd!

Go Boyd! Love Shamwari! Big sigh of relief they got home safe.

Can teams have scouts on course giving info on the track or can only the riders report back.

What’s up with the team standings? We seem to have moved into second from 13th. Just behind NZL? Somehow that doesn’t seem right…,

How wonderful for Boyd!

Andreas might have missed a flag at a skinny. He looked great as far as I could see on the fei feed.

wow that is a tough blow

on the live scoring there were a few jumps that didn’t have checks for Andreas Ostholt

Paul Tapner/Kilronan jumped around great. Dag Albert is jumping around well too.

People that are watching: what is the video like? Is it like the coverage from Rolex where you get to see every jump? Do the commentators know what’s going on?

For the first time since WEG started, I am okay with not having live video. Not sure I want to see this :no:[/QUOTE]

Watching it. Really not bad to watch. Riding well for the most part. Falls not super scary. More drive bys and just horses getting tired but many are finishing decently.

Mark Kyle is doing excellent commentary. Much better commentary than typical Rolex/USEF live feed. Most fences are shown and the quality is good. I have an HDMI cable hooked up to a t.v. from my pc. Quality is much better than previous fei feeds. Selena O’Hanlon on course now. Took the long route at the corners (number 4, I think)

lol and my feed just froze…

Selena O’Hanlon is missing a check mark. I hope she didn’t miss something

Agreed, the course isn’t actually riding as “scary” as possibly the live score may lead you to believe. Loads of run-outs, few riders popped over the shoulder, only 2 not nice falls that I’ve seen.

You get to see the 3 water jumps for most riders, and the beginning and end of the course plus a scattering of other jumps depending on how many are on course, have been a few moments when there’s only been one out because the others have retired.

From FEITV?

I’m enjoying the commentary (and the grasshopper). I’m watching on BBC and getting some buffering but not sure if that’s me or them. Lots of good fences but not all of them are shown.

Now Ostholt is back in 5th.

andreas Ostholt is back in 5th.

Now they’re showing Ostholt as being 5th again. The scoring has been wacky all day…
