For many years we've made individual class videos. These videos took longer to make than the actual race, and most would see 5-30 views. The main reason we started videos in the past was because the race footage would be deleted after 30 days on Livestream. With the move to Youtube the video stays forever!! YAY!!! If you look at the last two months of the race videos we went in and bookmarked each class so you don't have to look for a particular class. Also you can click on the settings gear and adjust the speed at which you watch for slow-motion detail. You also get to hear our comments of the live race which at time can be useful, but most the time is nonsense. Anyways we hope this will work for you guys, if not we can go back to making the videos. As always thanks for your support, and we hope to see you on the hill!!

That makes sense, but I will admit, I like watching the videos in slow motion with the background music. I think you guys have always done a really great job with the videos, and as DWS said in an earlier post, it really does help when preparing for upcoming races.

I just went and checked the replay for the bookmarks. Didn't even know that was a thing til now... They worked well as did adjusting the playback speed. That and watching the replay at half speed made Joel and Ronda sound like they've been drinkin which made me laugh. But then I'm a simple dude who's easily entertained so... ya. 😁

T-Bone the only thing missing from the race video is the music. You will still be able to watch the video in slow motion up to a .25 of normal speed so you will still be able to get all the info you need for possible tuning tweaks. To adjust playback speed click the setting gear on the video screen and select playback speed.

I tried the new way on mobile and on my smart TV. The quality is not as good making it hard to see wiggles at the transition. Seems like it’s worse the slower the playback is set. I am one who watches the class videos religiously.

I realize that it must take some decent leg work to produce them monthly, but I for one am not a fan of the new method. My 2cents.

I'm also not a fan for the new way of watching playback videos. However, I can understand the time and effort that goes into producing the old way vs realitively low viewing count. Not sure I understand the bookmark thing when searching for a particular class to watch. I may be doing something wrong when guessing where to find a class to watch. No doubt we all were spoiled by having the convenience of admin doing all the work. This feature was the key selling point that got me to race at NPWDRL. I'll roll with the flow but going to miss it.

We just got new internet today, they finally put fiber in our neighborhood. We should be able to increase the stream quality more now, that should help on the video. I’m not sure how the quality is different though since the individual videos are made from the stream. If this new way doesn’t work for you guys after a few months we can go back to the old way, we may just need to drop half the classes. LOL
