My missus (Leigh Donovan) is there doing the on track announcing with that bad ass announcer, Will (forgot his last name), her first gig announcing haha but she knows a thing about racing (do your homework kids).
Anyway, she said there will be an attempt at a live stream, she dropped the link:

the toughest part is that USA Cycling sent emails about sponsors who signed on for the race (as early as yesterday), but never received a results email or an email that there was live stream. only found out via Leigh Donovan (who's there announcing DH and DS). She told her husband Stik (above about it), who told me. Was there any news this live feed existed??
*stik isn't promoting live stream - he only texted saying he was surprised to learn there was one : )
Typical MTB race---media blackout!

Such a bummer, especially when Leigh and Trill Will would entertain the heck out of people! McGill did a great job on that track!
Enduro racers start dropping in at 7:30. DH seeding for Pros and Cat 1's is this afternoon and will be live streamed on Flosports. Looks like 7 cameras on track so we will see how it goes!

On the women’s side, it was Amy Morrison, Porsha Murdoch, and Lia Westerman (1, 2, 3).
I limped home in 22nd. Still have DH later to try and redeem myself.
for those that don't want to sign up, there are some recap vids that are free (at least these worked for me a in a diff browser w/o being logged in)

Even more apparent on the WC stage.
The track required a lot of precision and because it was relatively flat, punished mistakes harshly. I have full belief that the bike isn’t holding Aaron back and his non-medal result is more due to the level of racing in the USA right now making mistakes in runs no longer allowed.
PS Dakota came through the final ski run section and next corner in the trees like a madman on his final practice run, it was the most impressive thing I saw this weekend.
Neko isn't far off his usual results.
A big part of winning in DH is having your head in the right place.
Dak is on fire at the moment and he is riding with wicked confidence.
Gwin is still trying to get his mojo back after the bad run of injuries. Listen to the podcast he did with Spomer. He was talking about taking safe lines in a world cup race. That's not going to win it. I think he'll be back winning when he gets his confidence back.
