Just googled the Olympic schedule and saw that the C-1 heats take place tomorrow (Sunday July 29th) at 1:30 PM...don't know if that's their time or ours but I'm looking forward to checking it out.

London time....set your DVR's!

This will be an interesting and memorable Olympics as it's the first one I've seen since becoming a paddler. Looking forward to it!

It looks like you can stream it live via the nbcolympics site, but only if you have a login for your cable company AND your subscription includes MSNBC and CNBC. Guess I'll be staying up late tonight...

Tech question: Did I really see some kind of skeg on K. Maley's boat? Or what did I see?

Anyone else having streaming issues? Every time it cuts to an advertisement it freezes and I have to reload the page. This is from the NBC site...

It's fast & clean on my machine. I have maximized the screen.

I'm with you PAC, It's a heck of a course. The ones that look slow are still worlds faster than I have ever been, or will ever be.

Hint: pick a random cable company and say you forgot your login. Then just use any old email. Good for 4 hours!

That was an awesome show. Martikan's brute-force sprint for victory, Estanguet's smooth and clean runs and that unfortunate moment in the hole, Florence's fight for the top 12... K1s are boring compared to this.

Hint 2: I switched from Firefox to IE and everything improved.

Great stuff!

Yeah, I was definitely conflicted about Martikan's second run. It was bumming me out that it knocked Casey out of the semi's, but holy ****, was it a brilliant run.
