Patience, Alex. Look at the videos on Jalipo (linked to on the main site). There may be somebody working on it, no doubt in his spare time and purely for the pleasure of others. It wasn't that long ago that people would have to wait weeks or months to see this stuff.

yeah i didnt mean to come off as an impatient person but yeah, I actually watched a few on Jalipo and the 105kg has been giving me problems and i hate that it restarts if the stream goes haywire. Although the quality is badass, i might need some more credits possibly, but i love the jalipo-style coverage. Im going to try 105kg class again and see if it works

I am pretty sure Jim Schmitz recorded the meet and would sell you a copy. You can contact him here:

Alex,

Coach Schmitz has been very generous with us. Most of our featured videos were donated by him for free, including the 2005 and 2006 Senior Worlds. But, I have no idea if he intends to donate this year's event. I would not expect him to post them himself. He already spent his own money and time to attend and film the events and posting the videos takes probably about 20 hours of work for each event, maybe more. I haven't kept track of how much time it took me. If he donates the video, I will publish it as soon as I can. You might ask him if you want. In the past he has allowed his customers to donate the videos he bought to us so perhaps if you felt it was worth the expense, and I think he charges reasonable rates, he might allow you to donate the video to the site. The bottom line is that the meet may be published here or elsewhere for free but it may not be. If its urgent that you see it, you will want to pay for it otherwise you will have to be patient and hope for the best. In the meantime, if you had troubles with the Jalipo videos, I would suggest contacting them and asking for more credits as a result of your trouble. Their email support is listed in the thread announcing it was streamed on our site.

Please watch your language. This is a family friendly site.

Thanks

I talked to somebody who was at the competition, and she told me that filming the competition was prohibited.  Therefore, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the video.  Either somebody who recorded the video off TV will post it somewhere, or we will be able to pay for it.  But I wouldn't expect any high quality video from anybody that was there.  It wouldn't have been too difficult to discretely take a few videos, but it would have been impossible to set up a tripod and video camera without being caught.  Unless they had some sort of deal with the organizing committee.
