Pretty sure that's blocked here  (and I don't need it since I pay for the sports channel  )

Great silver for Roland, now I need to forget this race as soon as possible.

in the Countries where the TV networks bought the TV rights it's geo-blocked (actually, here the link's not even visible)...

we don't even have a commentator! our TV is not showing this race live...right now they're showing yesterday's PGS!

They are showing the PSL on RAI sport WEB

Loginov really deserved today's win...

and this silver medal is a good result for Fisch, but still it leaves some kind of bitter feeling, given the enormous advantage of the blue course over the red one...

I just watched raiplay and there are 2 streams of yesterday's PGS...

raisportweb's streams are just unwatchable (what are them? 240p? maybe not even that )...to me, they don't exist...

but for me that's never been a problem...I have sat TV and many other sources to make up for the Italian TV absence (and/or disasters)...

One of the two paid sports channels here shows basically all World Cups in snowboard and ski cross, plus has full rights for these entire world champs

The more i think about it the happier i am with the tanking of the german girls in this event. Ironically the competition was so weak that Hofmeister still won a medal despite trying everything she could to not win a medal. If Germany would have swept this then some people might have asked for PGS/PS to be removed due to lack of competition, but now that we have seen that very different athletes win medals in PGS and PS, PS might be brought back to the olympics.

I believe IOC will prefer more events with aerial tricks which are supposedly more fan-friendly
