  1. When interviewed Sara said she has worked hard for the jump from zero in the last 4 years, and the support from people around her made her continue. So she apologized for failing to meet the expectation and disappointing her supporters. She did not say anything about quitting. Kasai said that just by looking at her he can feel her regret and understood well that feeling. Not much reaction in that show because the TV station which broadcasted the ski jumping competitions is not the same where Kasai was invited. But generally the Japanese public are supportive to her, and media was busy with the mixed team disquaification
  2. Yes it is. A free Canada VPN is actually enough but a paid VPN offers more stability in streams
  3. I decided to pay for a proper VPN and install CBC Gem (free) on my TV. Quite good for me. You can simply select the date and watch any missed events. The only missing thing is the medal ceremonies
  4. Maybe anyone is interested from what I watch in Japanese TV recordings: Noriaki Kasai is the special announcer here and he visited the ski jumping venue, surprising Ito Yuki and interviewed by Polish TVP in the process. When Kasai met Kobayashi Ryoyu who just finished his training, his advice to Kobayashi was 'go back with ease, drink some delicious miso soup and eat dry natto for energy'.
  5. Yeah the biathlon mixed relay yesterday shooting graphics were like on and off quite a few times (and giving a hard time to the CBC commentator)
  6. Damn that was some crazy s**t! I was convincing myself that he won't make it, but boom there he goes Congrats
  7. Any idea when the medal ceremonies will start? Is it tomorrow?
  8. My aunt just reported that my 90-year old uncle thought the Olympic cauldron got technical failure Welp, he watched it on a small tablet so pretty understandable he couldn’t see any flame
  9. Well Mr. Zhang, you did not lie. I’ve never seen a fire that small in an Olympic Cauldron
  10. Now waiting for the cauldron that Zhang Yimou described as “unprecedented in the Olympic Games” but he ended it with “I hope you like it (the idea)”
  11. It’s already 8 minutes… This might end up as human right violation
  12. The choice of classical pieces as parade music made me think that this is some Japanese variety/prank show
