I can’t understand (across almost all sports) how the graphic communication hasn’t moved with the technology abilities.

You can see where things are at in a race/competition at the different stages. I've been posting links for days (before the races). Keep those open during a race ...

I mean on the TV. We have fucking big TVs these days. Plenty of room for graphics.
I can’t watch tv and a website and the fern all together 😎

@crucial Ah, yes, on tv. That's a different matter. It shouldn't be too hard.

Still got the keirin and omnium to salvage a medal.

So when I posted this last night, I doubt any of us were seriously expecting not one, but two medals.

Top of the table clash in the women's 55kg karate featuring the local girl and the lovely Ms Tierluga. The fighting has been intense!

The hand speed on this Kata is amazing

Viviana Bottaro from Italy up now. Interesting difference in execution to the yank

Fuck judo as well. Boring as shit compared to Kata

Italian hottie wins

Poor etiquette from the yank. Barely bowed at the end.

Not many successful jumps at 4.70 m in the women's pole vault. It could be a quick night for the Russian.

Did you watch the kumite? No head gear, full body contact. I'm looking forward to seeing the guys go at it, would put Daniel San to shame I suspect.

The body speed and precision on show during the kata is amazing. CF Jr got to brown belt, his kata looked nothing like these

NTA

@canefan Spanish chick looks fired up.

I missed the kumite 😐

Best names in the 1500m
