Too easy @supa.
I reckon this Rogue.tv have cracked the code of big wave surfing being brought to an audience.
There's really no need for a contest. Everyones a winner already. So they can ditch the whole contest infrastructure that's so cumbersome to live streaming.
Just a couple of boat cameras, a drone, one on the cliff and a truck. Whammo! Done.
Just cameras and some guys in a commentary booth back on Oahu.
Watch this space i reckon. Could be some pretty sick stuff coming up.
Anyway, off to work. Love the Hawaiian time difference.
Have a good day mate.

It was good to watch, but Lordy, that's an expensive biz model.

Three talking heads, three camera angles (that I could count, there may have been more), producer, tech lead, and who-knows-how-many-other paid workers, all operating on call, and the max concurrent viewers I saw was 2.5K.

Also, I saw it for free. Where's the money coming from?

Not bad, at least they're embracing the fact that watching surfing is a slow mellow undertaking with only brief moments of excitement.
Contrived energy like the Wosl is always going to grate.
