I have just seen it, they completely fucked it up. Sorry for you and everyone.
Pretty much no linked turns could be seen!!!! Only singles.
And only 70secs. Do not think that more than 20 people notice it and actually go here. Most raceboarders know about extremecarving.com nowadays. I tell any good carver on the mountains about the website

Nils,
Have you tried to contact the Swedish TV program Richters Snow Magazine? This TV program is a weekly half hour program about snowboard, both freestyle, off-piste, and racing, and freeride skiing. I would think Lifted (or Stoked or Extremedreamer) would fit nicely in this program. I could be worth a try.

Yeah, in total it's 1 linked turn + Some cheesy overlay, so that you can see the rider three times. The linked turn consisted of only 3 or 4 direction changes.

Isn't that a typical sign of the media focusing on the glitz instead of actual content these days? People's watching that meaningless content and creating an image of the world as seen trough the skewed eyes of the media people, while nibbling on happy pills and zapping trough the channel output of empty rhetoric. :-D

Enough complaining, I better celebrate my F2 speedster 183 with gold diggers that arrived today! Going to Levi in Finland the coming weekend, to run in the gear! Pokkis, will you be there? :-)
That in the soul which is called the mind is, before it thinks, not actually any real thing.

Hmm ... the title of the "Lifted - Eurosport edition" is "Carving - a NEW snowboarding discipline"

I agree with Nils. This clip is better than nothing, so another time or in another program or channel there might be more.
