Aachen - Mohr 5.90, Czerwinski, Spiegelburg 5.61

[wurster490]

There is a live feed from Aachen Germany today starting at 11am Eastern Standard Time. I'm not sure of the exact feed, but it can probably be found from the website http://www.netaachen.de/domspringen/index.php or this website http://aachen.center.tv/programm/6_netaachen_domspringen.html.

Thank you for sharing the link to this event...that was the best coverage of a PV event I have ever seen. Amazing setup with the high runway and the huge crowd, in front of the amazing cathedral. Nice to see Walker vaulting again...not sure what happened after, but his first attempt at 5.70? looked good. Mohr made 5.90 look easy!

Let's hope there will be more of this type of webcast coverage in the future, because televised track meets in the U.S. SUCK for field events. It seems like webcasts have come a long ways, at least in Germany. Maybe organizers of other street vaults can get their events webcast as well...?

Probably easier to pull off when you are in a European town square and have good access to high speed access. Many US street vaults are held at fairs or events which are not in the middle of heavily populated areas... getting the internet access needed to stream video would probably be cost prohibitive for most.

I think Gill Athletics did a live stream of their event.

I'm not even gonna lie, my gf and I ordered chinese in my dorm, so I wouldn't have to walk to the cafeteria and leave the video-feed haha. We need to have a street-vault in time square or somethin. -6P
