Yeah, they've really taken the bull by the horns this season. They've always had exceptional coverage in the past, but I felt they were a step-or-two behind Vital with the overall package. They've changed my mindset drastically this year. Thanks, Pinkbike!!
Props to Pinkbike for really raising the bar in regards to WC coverage. They've always been the gold-standard in the slopestyle comps, but were a little behind with WC coverage - not that their coverage was horrible, but other sites seemed to be a step-or-two ahead. If anything, Pinkbike just hit the nitrous boosters and dropped the others violently. Good to see, as this benefits us the viewers.
I think, we need to give thumbs up to RedBull too, regardless of their screwup during the coverage. They were working in pretty extreme conditions and managed to recover pretty fast. Keep the coverage coming, RB!
And thank you, Pinkbike. This was awesome.
I think Claudio is finally getting his rhythm in the commentary department. Keep in mind he's managing a race team the entire weekend, so he can't prepare as well as Rob can. The amount on knowledge Rob and Claudio possess is mind-numbing. Advantage - us.
