Thank you so much Ted, you already have given the sport so much and yet selfishly I hope you are able to keep on for a long time! :luv17:
Also thrilled to hear Ted is doing the commentary for the ACI next week (is he the one who got the ISU to change its mind over geo-blocking the stream?). As long as he accidentally doesn't end up in Mississauga he'll be a wonderful addition to the event
I'm on the thankful bandwagon as well. These coverages are really well-done, and I like how sensitive and encouraging the commentary is, as opposed to some others. I wish this existed for the senior events as well!
One thing I'd like to see included, is that I would like to hear which jump a skater is doing right when s/he performs it, rather than just in slow-mo. Some might ask why I don't learn to tell them apart, but the truth is, I enjoy focusing on the performance, and analyzing edges and such would take a part of my ignorant joy away. :]
Love Ted but the YT channel has been, let's say, hit or miss the entire JGP season so far. It just collapsed completely for the entire last flight of the Pairs SP.
I wonder if that's due to local bandwidth issues, or some sort of equipment malfunction. Some of the events seem to be more prone to glitching than others.
Ted is our hero! I am so happy to be able to watch the Junior GP both live and after the fact on YouTube - such a great resource! And his commentary is supportive, insightful, and on-point.
By the way, back in Kaunas at least, Ted told people they could email him to say where they're watching from, and to send feedback. He read some emails aloud, which was fun. Anyways, I'm sure he'd love to see some of these great comments, so maybe you guys want to email him: [email protected]
Wow, Ted even served as camera-man for Autumn Classic practice today (not to mention giving commentary for the competition).
As if his plate were not already overflowing with responsibilities. This man's incredible dedication knows no bounds. Thank you, Ted.
