RENAUD LAVILLENIE WORLD RECORD 6.16!!!!!!!!!!!

[Wan]

Hi !
For several days I want to know if a TV or a website somewhere in the world will broadcast the event... without finding anything (they speak only of the Winter Olympics now in Russia and Ukraine).
Does anyone here know anything about this ?

[Wan]

Think I've found something...
Look at this : http://xsport.ua/athletics_s/news/v-donetske-ozhidaetsya-nashestvie-zvezd-shesta-_51534 (using a translator).

The meeting looks to be broadcasted on the online channel XSPORT. The show begins at 17.00 local time, (16.00 for France, 11.00 for us on this message board).
You can watch it on http://all-tv.org/xsport.html (works directly from France, don't know if you have to use an foreign server from US...)

I will try to catch the stream on saturday and comment it here... (hope it'll work fine !)

I hope you are patient. I think the polevaulters jump only 4 or 5 hours after the beginning. You have dances and a lot of other things before.

You have dances and a lot of other things before.

Hope to enjoy with that after, depends of the results of the meeting !...
Nevermind... This show doesn't seem to be broadcasted totally in live (just from 5 pm to 7 pm local time). Probably a summary or hopefully the most interesting end of it.

This website seems to be no longer in service since today...
But others do... just type "xsport ua online" in your favorite search engine and you will find. I hope it will be the same on saturday !
