Is it geoblocked in America???? Please please no, I have to see it!!

Wonderful news! I used to watch Russian Nationals last years but this time will be more interesting with Ted because I don't understand any Russian at all. Let's hope he will be working for many years in the future, and not only during Junior Grand Prix Series. He really deserves a monument.

No, only in Japan because they'll have a different broadcast.

Krasnoyarsk by the end of December shouldn't really bother him, as a Canadian he is used to cold winters.

That would be true if he were from rural Quebec. However, he lives in the Vancouver area, which has one of the mildest (although also rainiest) climates in Canada. The coldest months are Dec/Jan with an average low temperature of +3 centigrade and an average of 15n days of rain per month!

It does snow occasionally, which causes traffic chaos as few people know how to drive on snowy roads.

How wonderful! This is a great gift for the holidays :love:

With the ISU streams and the RusNats broadcast, it finally feels like figure skating is embracing the 21st century.

I hope someone will archive it somewhere so I can watch it (I will not be able to watch it).

The last two years all of the women (almost) skated lights out-I hope this doesn't add too much pressure to the ladies. Still, very excited for Ted Barton and Russian Nationals coverage.

Noxchild · Dec 15, 2019

Hurrah! Looking forward to a stable stream and Ted's kind words. I cannot imagine how Russian Nationals will turn out yet, but I've got my popcorn on hand

Awesome!

Fantastic idea, and I love Ted's commentary.

readernick · Dec 15, 2019

That is great because all the Russian commentators (almost all the commentators in all languages) speak through the performance. Ted knows when to stop talking. I wish he would commentate Japanese and American nationals, too.

I wouldn't describe last year's LP at Russian nationals as a "lights out" performance. The senior ladies just survived their LPs, only the 3A skated well. However, I think the 3A, Med, and Tuk are likely to out out great performances this year. I don't think an international stream will add any pressure.

Wait, does anyone know how/where we can watch it in the US? On a YouTube stream? On NBC gold pass? On broadcast tv?

Considering they’ve aired all the other streams on the ISU Skating channel on youtube, if I were a betting man... :agree:

What is that World Wide Stream? It’s not going to be on NBC Gold?
And if it’s going to be a live stream wherever it’s going to be on, is it going to be recorded for later viewing?

Live stream (RU and EN) will be at the Russian 1tv website (already scheduled). I don't know how about 1tv Youtube Channel, but definitely not at ISU Channel or NBC. Ted was invited by 1tv to make English language coverage, it has nothing to do with ISU.

For real? Hhhmmm... I am surprised. But yes, I understand your point. The website isn’t geoblocked? Can they unblock it partly for the stream? And how “safe” is that website? Do people need to load their browser with ad blockers etc.?

I really really hope they will link to a youtube stream (mostly because it’s easier to stream on my telly, *grin*).

Safe? This is the website of an actual TV channel, not an illegal streaming website that many of us (and also many skaters, judging by their social media posts) had to rely on in the past.

Ted Barton will cover Russian Nat on world Wide stream!
