#Thun Freestyle World Championships Coverage
Jeroen | August 30, 2009A short list of who’s covering what about the Freestyle Worlds 2009 on the web:
- ICF Freestyle World Championships. The official ICF page with announcements in both English and German (pretty much mixed).
- Kayak Session is the official media partner of the event. They made a special page for news about the event where you can find regular in-depth reports as the events progresses.
- World Kayak is also reporting about the worlds, although the content they published so far looks like copies of the ICF articles.
- Freecaster.tv will bring live streaming of the complete finals. The page currently show a countdown.
- Various blogs are reporting from Thun. The most active bloggers are those paddling for the boat brands that are best represented at the worlds: Jackson Kayak and Wavesport
- Twitter has become very popular during the past year and is also being used to report short messages from Thun.
- Playak has a special page called the Thun Twitterwall, which lists and links to all news mentioned above and more (tweets, photos, blogs, videos, news, podcasts, and forum discussions in 5 languages). A condensed version of the wall is also shown on the right side of every page on Playak.
The freecaster video streaming of the finals will be shown right on top of the Playak front page on Saturday and Sunday September 5&6.
