Appreciate the Pre-Race Videos, Race Broadcast & Highlights very much.👏👍 However, there are lots of Broadcast improvements needed by T100/ PTO and also Ironman. It's consistent across both organizations TOO many Voices / Commentators (Why do all sports broadcasters do that? - Quality over Quantity) - they end up competing for airtime and the Race Action is drowned out - BTW Rick Allen is a keeper experienced voice - just needs coordination with a Director & smaller "supporting cast" NO Connection between Audio to Video - NEED a DIRECTOR - The chatter is non-stop yet things are happening in the race that are lost NO Connection to Competitors changing positions - NEED Director - happens TOO many times Don’t Leave it up to Commentators - they are chatting too much NOT focused on the race / course / video NO Position List beyond Top 10 - WHY NOT - there's only 20 starters - pls show the full list at least every 15mins or so Comments are WAY TOO long - missing on track action - max 30 sec comments - STOP the long winded comments, overly focused on only a few Jan obviously knows his stuff but all the other commentators defer to him too much or just want to talk to him during the race = Star Struck They didn’t know who a number of other competitors were - Read numbers on Helmets - Need spotter or DIRECTOR to help them Only talking about Top 3 or 4 racers - what about the other 16 competitors? Should give update every 15mins or so of the entire field - All Contracted MORE Split screens - at Transition & other times - NOT just leaders - everyone Rotate video among Riders - ie; @ technical turns - at least top 10 every 15 mins or so Keeping certain Graphics Up TOO Long ie; T1 stats got stuck Graphics should indicate a Rider who has been lapped, dropped out LOST Audio on KZbin Feed 🙄 NO regular updates on who dropped out & why - Graphic? Family & Friends of racers higher than top 10 did not know where they were because it was never shown on screen - Why? Provide Athletes a Position / Timing board so they can see where they are - should not be hidden or a mystery or rely on a spectator / family member MORE Mobile Camera(s) - Motorcycle, E-Bikes & Drone(s) Athlete Thumbnails are very helpful Again, appreciate the Broadcast and all the supporting Videos especially on KZbin - Just would like to see the live Broadcast match the excellence of the competitors.

I agree. Great coverage, but still some ways to improve. Only showing the top 10 places was hard to know how far back the stronger bike/run athletes were located. PTO did this last year too. For example, in the men's race there was lots of pre-race hype about Jason West's running prowess, yet during the race it was largely ignored because he wasn't battling for the lead. Viewers want to see him moving up on the run, even if its from 14th place to 7th place or whatever, PTO should still satisfy our hungry eyeballs. Also, I found the font type and font size of the leaderboard hard to read. Anyone else? I was watching on my 55" TV and still could not tell the difference between a "6" and an "8" in the PTO font. (compare 8th and 9th place at 5:48 in this video is 01:56 and 01:58 back from the leader). Bigger font, less padding please. Black Arial on white background would have been at least legible.

When 'triathlon' was first put into the Olympics I believe that is was stipulated that it can't last longer than the marathon, hence the 'Olympic' triathlon was born. It would be interesting to see if a longer distance event could gain traction. Very few people would watch a full distance race, but a half distance race, such as this 100 might be doable.

Great concept, great performance from the athletes and fairly good broadcasting attempt too. However, for many live viewers half of the cycling was broadcast without any audio on KZbin and once the sun was down it got so dark that it was difficult to see what was going on. All that said it was a fantastic race and the athletes really put themselves on the line in the hot and humid environment.

The digs are valid, but a racetrack has many advantages. There is no need to close roads. No hassles with motorcycle or insurance. Ready made grandstands, concessions, bathrooms, and parking. Auto tracks are near cities, airport, and highways. Kona is a lot more scenic, but the cost of organization is 10x as.much.
