Women's Individual Test 3 Final Heat - 2023 North America East Semifinal

[@bike_run_lift_ruck]

Does CrossFit not understand you can live stream and make a highlight video? If they can't afford the analysts with every event, just stream with the floor announcers. This video with elevator music is ridiculous. The competitors and viewers deserve better.

[@CaseyMelvin]

I hope they fix it and live stream all events for the semis coming up…

[@idahoman325]

Yeah what he said .. or the idea that only a certain athlete can be covered per event is like damnnn bro , really ?

[@markolson2466]

I agree with Greenway!

[@ravhughes]

I can't stand it!! The elevator music & crappy announcers sucks

[@ReneePorter]

So hard to follow with the sound of audience, commentators and music.

[@Danny-ht1xf]

The elevator background music in this is horrendous. It doesn’t fit and is terrible.

[@m.a.5028]

Probably laid over the video after the event to cover any live music that was played for which they don't have the copyright

[@flyingardilla143]

Three layers of audio is one too many.

[@lisaaldridge8756]

Music is making it hard to hear the commentary - please don't add music next time.

[@CaseyMelvin]

How about next time they actually live stream all the events lol

[@m.a.5028]

I'm guessing they had to add the elevator music to the video to cover any live music at the event that was played for which they don't have the copyright. Basically, no elevator music=no replay video

[@zackariachelsea]

Can we have the workout in the beginin of the video or even in the description ?

[@DexterLynch]

its in the description

[@alphariusomegon6374]

The absolute absence of any visual/graphical information is something unreal ... even the broadcasts from high school competitions are at a higher level. Not to mention the completely confused direction

[@bethharpel5984]

Sad we couldn’t watch this live and can’t watch other heats. Not sure how doing it this ways makes you more money or makes your fans happy.

[@phoolchandkilaniyas]

I love fitness

CrossFit is horrible for not streaming all events and removing two athletes. It will never be professional.

Removing two athletes?

Amanda just pumped out those bench presses like it was nothing. That was the most fan friendly event of the weekend.

[@kyucklebeans]

Considering that this event was unwatchable, that’s about right for Boz’s trash programming. Boz the Bore

[@janisozolins9548]

Don't put that background music in the video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤦‍♂️

[@WayneGlass1]

It’s to prevent KZbin from flagging the background music for copyright.

[@patrickconnor9507]

@@WayneGlass1 they don’t put background music during the live stream.

[@m.a.5028]

@@patrickconnor9507 I think Wayne means the music that is played during the events. Example, if they play Rihanna's Umbrella, KZbin will flag it for copyright. Then we'll get a mute video with no music or commentary. So the alternative is elevator music and commentary laid over the video after the fact

[@danielherrera1162]

Coverage has been crap

[@johngoldbeck5346]

Why background music

[@chelsea4861]

Why isn’t this in today’s video?

[@juliosanchez2006]

because the dont have good cameras in field 2

[@chelsea4861]

They were able to make this video, weren’t they?

[@maggies88]

It's mentally taxing to try to focus on all of the different layers of audio in this.

[@kjc6152]

I absolutely could not agree more. The elevator music was the cherry on top of an awful friggin sundae of audio and broadcasting issues.

[@BreezyLaDoucer]

What is with the horrible elevator music on top of everything else?! Too much

[@m.a.5028]

It's to avoid being flagged by KZbin for copyright

[@bryanpye5365]

Does anyone know how to watch day 4? I can’t seem to find the stream anywhere?

[@calebstephens2578]

Same here ??

[@jaredjonesontv]

Day 4 was up and got pulled in last hour. Wonder why?

[@carolzaher2655]

I love Crossfit ❤

[@anna_hufnagel]

This wellness sound is so annoying! I find it super hard to follow what’s said since there is the speaking, background noise and this meditation-wellness sound. Why are you making it so hard for us🥲! English is my second language and it would be nice if you just cut distracting stuff like this out! THANKS 🙏

[@julianelukas-kock3191]

I wanted to say exactly the same. I actually thought it came from another open tab. It's soo annoying.

[@WayneGlass1]

I just turn the volume off.

[@VermontMustache]

This video is weird. Why wasn't this just streamed live?

[@ukaserex]

Have to agree with other posters. We certainly don't need the lame music in the background. What we need are Pat Sherwood, Sean Woodland and Tommy Marquez. And if the sport can't afford them, then they shouldn't be hosting any games. They should realize that part of the reason people have been dropping out is because CF is no longer being treated like a sport. The prize money should be double what's offered. Find that sponsor money or more of the better athletes will drop out as well.

[@zachphillips8892]

I'm just over here reminiscing of the days CrossFit Games highlights came with some intense music

[@BlahBlah-gb6st]

Where is test 2???

[@kdtune33]

AB's in the zone.

[@phoolchandkilaniyas]

👊

[@kimmbooo]

i live for this

[@stephaniepentecost2212]

As a CrossFit community, we ask you to never decide to do coverage like this again. Not being able to view the tests in real time, not being able to see all the athletes, and terrible commentary make for a terrible watch experience for all of us fans.

[@Ropehand2]

Good god this is barely watchable with three audio feeds overlapping. Whoever had the idea for the backing music make sure no other idea of theirs is ever listened to, the earlier feeds didn’t have it so why ruin the last day.

[@kelleylewis8264]

Amanda wasn't even tired. Wow. She could've gone back up the ladder!

[@alore22]

This is actually unwatchable. Just have the announcers talking.

Both Test 3 and Test 1 are like this with terrible elevator music. Why??? This is meant to be one of the super-semi’s and the coverage is junk….

So far this years coverage of the semi finals has been awful!! just put it in one video, whats with the weird podcast videos? feel sorry for the competitors that got to the semi finals and dont get on these bad quality side videos...poor show!

[@sueperstar777]

Is it me or is Emma Cary cheating the db bench press? Surprised the judges let that pass.

[@robgronkowski947]

just you. Standard is that 1 head of the db has to touch the shoulder
