Delayed because "too windy"

Well the water looks even choppier than it was yesterday.
We've seen enough lane-splitting without wind yesterday, imagine if it was actually windy.

that stupid boxing clip is at least 5 months old, I've seen it several times now.

>imagine if it was actually windy.
Would be fun to watch.

it's supposed to be called deathpaddling, as you're not allowed to come in contact with the water or you die.

VANUATU

kek germans, did you just hear this?
>Hier sehen sie das Flüchtlingsteam beim ein-äh laufen, ich vermeide es einmarschieren zu sagen

now that's a freudian slip

can you explain the joke?

confirmed FIRED

>they show a clip from the opening ceremony where the refugee team come in
>"there you can see the refugee team err walking in, I try not to say 'march in'"
this sounds like a sackable offense at ZDF

It's on in about 10 Minutes

Your Olympic regatta course is in the middle of an open bay, at the bottom of a large hill.
>hues in charge of understanding science behind wind

Yeah because Olympic athletes capsize on just 'windy' days.

>inb4 third delay

nah, they just postponed it altogether
welp

for fuck's sake

wake me up

does that mean tomorrow's events are also going to be delayed to account for today's?

Anyone got a stream?

Brazil doesn't it seems

Bumpan

good thread all

>live in neverlands
>they show how rowing has been suspended
>not showing other sports
>if they do they show replays of yesterday

Wtf is this, okay they show everything online, but that is no excuse to show nothing on the telly.

Rtp 2 will show the race with the tuga

What the fuck is happening? Did they reschedule anything?

>rowing might be cancelled

welp, that's our olympics finished

Will they? Either way, I would like to watch other events but RTP is shit and doesn't even have the decency of having a decent online broadcast.

I wish i had some canoe and could go into the sea row

Cancelled because of weather conditions. They will try again tomorrow.

>cancelled

J U S T

They have been focusing on the national athletes. Now it's judo on because Joana Ramos fought and some eastern european immigrant will be fighting in some mins

They have them on decathlon

Don't you have other channels running it?

We've got 6 channels constantly playing Olympics shit

Its 12. There is 10 pop up channels on sky and also sky sport 3 and 4 are being used.

Ayyyy
