<p>More like watching the older compulsory figures from figure skating. The part that was not even telecast except to show it happened :) Face it even at a contest, except to watch the better flyers to see how it should be done, or your competitors, even we
don't watch most of the flights unless judging and I have seen some judges zone out as well :)</p>
<p>Yup this is fun to watch. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJDOxzANY1s">

<div>I was speaking in terms of how exciting it is to watch, not the "performance" itself. Figure skating is closer to IMAC freestyle.</div>

<div dir="3D"ltr"">Regarding what we're up against, I'm sitting here watching ESPN. On this channel, they are broadcasting the DRL Drone Racing series and US Nationals in New York. It's an hour show on ESPN and the crowd is amazing. Unfortunately, the draw
of this is where our youngsters are looking and going. There's RC modelers doing the commentary. If we want to compete with this draw, we definitely need to look "outside the box". <span></span><br>
