I found this one...

 

Yeah, right...

[Bream]

Dont want to be a besserwisser.. but I hope Stefan will advice his son about how to put his left leg. Foot out like that hitting a rut there is plenty of momentum to tear acl/pcl-joint from the knee very easily and ruin very promising career. It is very nice to see that there is potential riders coming from Sweden. Posa and Stefan have been keeping Sweden up in the game so long time.

[DutchGrasstrack]

Looks like Niklas is following the same style as Dmitri Koltakov

[Bream]

When I first saw Koltakov, his style just looked akward but he is fast for sure. Even with his style of keeping left leg up he still uses it as a third point of balance when it is on the ice. Scary looking are those who are following his style but not using the knee. Hanging out in the air just waiting for front or rear tyre to give a way.

 

My point about Niklas´s ankle is just the way how it is pointing outwards risking bad twisting damage. Inline with the bike like Koltakov does it would be safer for the knee ligaments.

Weird, it says that it should be available for everyone.

[Bream]

Yeap, something wrong with the broadcasting. Bottom of the page there is that it is available in the whole world. But.. when you click play you get "Videon äre inte tillgänglig" ..in short, cant see s_it sherlock. Is there problems in broadcasting locally or are we all outside Sweden just blocked?

[Ghostwalker]

I've been told that this link should work http://www.fim-tv.co...3117431,00.html

 

SVT-play works fine for em though. There have been a question posted on SVT's help forum so we'll see if threre will be a reply.

[Bream]

Works! And it was pretty easy to say how to find it through phone to my dad. Just google fim tv live and you find the link. Thank you very much. Track looks nice not too round. I was first scared that they race this in the inside track that is almost round.
