Baller ScottScott Posted May 12, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 12, 2019 Did they start earlier this year? 930 am and 1st round woman already done.... When Nate set the pending world record it was starting to get dark, I'm not sure it will go that late this year.....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Zman Posted May 12, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 12, 2019 Totally awesome webcast! Cameras on the water, in the boat, in the air and shoreline! Nice mix of guest speakers to go along with good job by Tony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted May 12, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted May 12, 2019 I'll add to Zman ...not only that many cameras and angles but great work moving between them all seamlessly to keep the viewers interest way up. Each year it just gets better. Well done!!! Still wanna know how that water cam tracks considering it's a split second around the ball. Oh and totally agree with Tony on the big presence of Conelly. What a come back from almost none not that long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller APB Posted May 13, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 13, 2019 such a great event! the webcast quality was so rad. i will say the pull meter didnt really do anything for me..... the skiers dont really seem to care either. chatting with the skiers throughout was great. i would still love to see the w's prize $ be the same as the mens. $2500 each would be so easy as well as respectful to the women's field. that runoff was so good.

Baller dvskier Posted May 13, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 13, 2019 Agreed, this was the highest quality web cast that I have seen. Excellent commentary as Tony actually knew what he was talking about. Very well produced, I imagine it was expensive as they obviously had a lot of bandwidth available.

Baller Kelvin Posted May 13, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 13, 2019 Having produced a number of webcasts myself, I can definitively say Tony and Vincent put in an incredible amount of time, effort and money into the Swiss Pro Slalom production. It has to be a labor of love to put that much into the broadcast!! Hats off!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller BlueSki Posted May 14, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 14, 2019 We skied in the cold and were home in time to watch the finals. The webcast was a great way to end the day. Well done to all involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted May 14, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted May 14, 2019 I felt bad for Tony there for a little while. His assessments of skier technique, equipment, and style was met with an apposing view and I have to say correct analysis from Drew Ross. Hats off to Drew for knowing his stuff and sharing his thoughts. Very knowledgeable and could easily be a good choice for announcing future events if he so chooses.

Baller TonyLightfoot Posted May 14, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 14, 2019 It's cool. At least we got a conversation going and I do acknowledge that Drew is a lot closer to the coaching and technical scene than I am, so an opposing view works out just fine. We've got a bunch of great events coming up and it was an absolute blast to pull off this one. On reflection (and this was my major takeaway) I was actually pleasantly surprised that the skiers I spoke to were up for answering some difficult questions about their performances and careers in general. Maybe it's about time that tournament water skiing fully embraces that media culture that has been a part of major sports. Glad you enjoyed the coverage. We (Vincent, John and Myself) are planning on adding more innovations to our coverage of tournament water skiing, so keep watching.

Baller Ed_Johnson Posted May 14, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 14, 2019 Thank you Tony so much for such great coverage. Especially loading it to U-Tube so we could review it on TV at our convenience. I would have missed it otherwise. Really enjoyed it and always learn something in the process...Thanks Again !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Andre Posted May 15, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2019 Greatest.....skiing.....webcast......EVER!!! Congrats to all involve especially Tony for more then 11 hrs of commentary.Not an easy job to do!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller LakeOneSkier Posted May 15, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2019 With yet another cold/rainy/windy Chicago day and day 2 of foot surgery recovery, I woke up in a crappy mood. But it could not have worked out any better; I spent the ENTIRE day with @TonyLightfoot and Swiss Pro Slalom on the big screen. Thanks guys for all your efforts to share some great skiing with us!

Baller Zman Posted May 15, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2019 @TonyLightfoot What are your upcoming webcasts? Awesome job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skiinxs Posted May 15, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2019 I agree on that being the best skiing production I have ever seen, even going way back to the network produced "Hot Summer Nights" shows. This is certainly on the right track to make it back to TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller APB Posted May 15, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2019 I agree a very good 30-60 min broadcast could be made from that webcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller chris55 Posted May 15, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2019 @TonyLightfoot I started watching from the beginning, I live in Geneva and the whole webcast was really really great and "man alive" !!!! finally we had some great interviews with skiers. It was really nice to hear more about Dane etc...and the mix between you and Drew was awsome too, it was "organized" Drew would say !!!! Super job and looking forward for the next ones Quality was really good here in Geneva !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller TonyLightfoot Posted May 16, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 16, 2019 A lot to unpack here - Next webcasts: U.S. Jnr. Open + Pro Team Challenge - Oconomowoc, Wisconsin (June 28-30) San Gervasio Pro-Am - San Gervasio, Italy (July 5-7) Malibu Open: French Edition - Lacanau, France (July 9-11) Those are the ones that are confirmed at this time - more will be added when details are finalized. Thanks for the compliments - certainly makes a change from what I've had to endure in recent years. It certainly helps when the task of setting up and running a webcast of this nature is done by a team of great folks (Vincent, John, Charlie, Greg, Ricky,Noah - apologies if I left anyone off), leaving me to actually focus more on my commentary and on-screen graphics product and less on troubleshooting. Speaking of Hot Summer Nights - we are compiling the footage as we speak and are aiming to have the footage re-aired on a major satellite sports channel in Europe, so be on the lookout for that in the coming days/weeks. Thanks again and keep on watching!!! Tony Lightfoot TWSBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller disland Posted May 16, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 16, 2019 Couldn't agree more regarding more skier interviews with real questions. It gets boring fast when its one big never ending advertisement and puff marketing piece (aka The Masters) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller TonyLightfoot Posted May 22, 2019 Baller Share Posted May 22, 2019 Hey, guys. I just got done appearing on the Streaming Idiots webshow hosted by Tom Sinclair - a popular show among those involved with producing live webcast content. The discussion was all about the recent Swiss Pro Slalom and the innovation used to pull it off. Check it out at: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
