Olympics 2024

Outside of anything involving a horse this must be the worst ‘sport’ of the whole games.

Fantastically boring. Impenetrable scoring. Lovely backdrops.

I have said it before on here but I just don’t get the appeal of surfing, but I get it even less when you sportify it with judging and shit.

I “skate” with a couple of surfers at work, carving a 3ft mini ramp on a surf skate looks unbearably boring.

The Wave in Bristol have just had this made…

Going there in a couple of weeks so will be sure to check that out!

Yeah they’re all raving about them when there’s no surf, a friend of theirs has one in the garden.

Tom Schaar at 8/1 seems a decent bet if anyone’s having a flutter…

Will this be on BBC?

I’d think so as there are British skaters involved. Which is all they really seem to mostly cover at this years (because of the Discovery+ deal?).

Hmmm can’t find the heats on iplayer. Bet they are only showing the finals (if a British skater makes it) FFS!

If you want to watch the whole thing you need Discovery+.

The BBC will show bits of what they can I guess.

Obviously some random Japanese girl has absolutely killed it from the get go.

You’re run is over as soon as you bail which seems harsh.

The BBC said Sky Brown’s heat is at 12.30 so they might show it then.

I really struggle with the park judging. Sakura did the best first run but scored down to Cocona.

Cocona’s wallride to end her second run was so sick!

Also, it’s currently on Eurosport 2.

Yeah that was amazing!

I thought the same, scores seem a bit random

These ramps are fucking massive. Some good shit going down here.

That 540 was absolutely massive!

Great im watching someone talk about a final thats in like 8 hours fuck this

On IPlayer now.
