On Saturday November 15 2008, Qrodo live-casted the skateboard event Quicksilver Vert invitational 2008 from Stockholm Skatepark (Fryshuset) over the Tre 3G mobile network. The event was listed and available for free in the Extreme Sport Channel. For the filming we used a semi-pro Sony DV camcorder using resolution 752×520. The live casting of the event had around around 140 viewers and is considered the modest invitation effort a good number.
The Qrodo video player now support live tagging to help other viewer with interesting action. We have plenty of features planed to really take benefit from the contributions from a community.
The winner of the event was Jussi Korhonen.
