State-of-the-Art Set and 5G Drones Powered by T-Mobile Enhance the Fan Viewing Experience.
Are you ready for the Super Bowl of Freeride Mountain Bike? Red Bull Rampage returns this weekend and you as Red Bull Rampage fans watching from around the globe will be able to experience Rampage like never before through innovative new production technologies and drone footage streamed over T-Mobile’s powerful 5G network. The broadcast will bring fans even closer to all the action and provide more viewing angles of the riders, course, and lines, changing the way viewers around the world experience the event.
The event will be streamed live beginning Friday, October 21st at 11am MT exclusively on ESPN+ in the U.S., and on Red Bull TV in all other countries. The show will be available in eight languages including English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Spanish and Turkish.
But…. it gets better. You can now watch the action from a POV drone camera which will provide live, first-person views of the runs. The POV drones will capture footage from the course and send it back to Red Bull’s on-site production studio in near real-time for inclusion in the live Red Bull Rampage broadcast. Connected to T-Mobile’s 5G through LiveU backpacks, the drones will also enhance the 3D visualizations of each run highlighting unique course features with key stats such as measurements of jumps, so viewers can see for themselves just how intense Rampage really is.
Hungry for more? Then get your Red Bull Rampage 2022 fix by tuning-in to The Adventure Stache podcast hosted by professional mountain biker Payson McElveen. McElveen goes behind-the-scenes with the participating athletes in the 2022 event as they arrived on-site to take a deep dive into everything from their thought process in choosing lines, to what they think this year will hold in store, to what the future of freeriding looks like. For an in-depth preview into this year’s event, give The Adventure Stache a listen ahead of finals day as the episode goes live later today.
