Tomorrow´s dynamic competition web stream: [ame="http://www.ustream.tv/channel/aida-team-freediving-world-championships-2010"]AIDA Team Freediving World Championships 2010 on USTREAM: AIDA Team Freediving World Championships 2010 in Okinawa.@@AMEPARAM@@cid=4738834@@AMEPARAM@@4738834[/ame]

Aaaagggh! So exciting. Good luck to everyone but especially to Greg & Kevin, and to my friends Junko and Ben!
 
The live streaming is already an excellent progress, but what is missing is some commentary - you only see an UW video with a silhouette of a diver, but often have hard time to guess who it really is, and especially you do not see what card he got, and what the result exactly was. And at the statics you practically saw only one person from the four competing at the same time. As I told, I am already very much thankful for this, because it is exciting anyway, but it would be perfect if someone could add a comment to it. Technically it is easy - there is a chat near the streaming window, so they can type the comments directly there. I am sure there are plenty of people in the pool who'd be happy to take care about it, if someone asks them.

There is another possibility: even if they do not find anyone willing to comment, and do not want to do it during the competition, at STA they pulled the camera out of water and placed it on the table of the IT people. Unfortunately they did not think about telling us anything in English, although we could hear them speaking together in Japanese. And they could have just moved the camera a few inches more so that we could look at the screen of their computer with the ranking. It was a terrible feeling knowing that the results are so close, but you had no way to tell them to turn the camera a bit. So perhaps this can give them an idea, and if anyone in Okinawa reads this, please let them know!

Thanks!

Holy Samsonite!!!!!
Denmark has Jakob at 208, and both Rune and Jesper has bettered Stig's old Danish record to 229!!!!!
Ryuzo is at 203, Guillaume is at 175.
Now I have to wait two and a half hours for Shun, Katsuya, Morgan and Frederic to see if that takes home the gold...

I don't believe it!!!
 
Denmark can't kick a soccer ball, but they can dive worth a crazy!
I don't believe it!
