Typical Epic TV coverage. More marketing and fluff than actual racing footage. Don't expect any better from the highlights package every night.

YouTube coverage has been good, excellent in fact.

Was just thinking why Nino is wearing rainbow stripes as XC World Champ, but Lakata only gets rainbows on his sleeve as marathon champ?

Should switch over to the youtube lifestream, even had a section with the e-bikes riding behind the leading woman and showing the single tracks.

What is the link to the live stream please.?

For those that have DSTV and could compare it with the youtube live link, how did they compare, or was it basically the same feed?

Because Epic is considered XC not Marathon.

Is it just me but does it sound like that commentator on TV pronounces Anika's surname as Langval... Or is my hearing going?

Yup, the announcer kept saying it wrong. Even one of the guys on TV kept saying Langval.

It is the correct way of pronouncing her name.

 

They did a whole "how to pronounce her surname" video before last years epic.
