If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

pdr4332 149 Posted May 7, 2020 #5 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I was not able to watch the last few races before it was taken offline. I planned to but it was the height of the coronachaos...

They can close off the tracks to spectators, and probably follow social distancing guidelines well. pdr4332 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

dcro 10,179 Posted May 7, 2020 #7 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Yeah, there are only like 120 serious lugers in the whole wide world, so you would hope at least they should be able to keep it together. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If storage was such a problem, one could easily put it on YouTube. Besides, if you can't pay for a couple of terabytes of storage, what on earth are you doing as federation? No, FIL scores major points in terms of the way they broadcast things during the season, but they lose half of those points with stuff like this.
