It's a day at the desk today. BMX Park & Flatland coming up this Friday and Saturday so researching hard for that and for a EuroCup Basketball game next week. Then it's on to winter 🌨️

Time for more aimless words as we are less than 3 weeks until the start of the ski jumping season. Spring was quiet but lucky to still have downhill skateboarding which was epic. Took 2 months off, had another child but returned on BMX, mountain biking and summer ski jumping!

On this day 15 years ago I was mostly listening to Big Country. Apparently.

Back attempting to play golf! Only managed a few rounds last year and to be honest this year will be similar but it's still fun to practice

So this happened! Such a privilege to witness this in person. Stunning way to wrap up the world cup season! Not done yet with ski jumping though! Zakopane next weekend with Red Bull 🙂

A commentary box full of ski jumpers! And me. Great to have Eva Pinkelnig on the mic and to have Sarah Hendrickson and Špela Rogelj hang in the commentary box as well!

My son has offered to build HS2. He's going to "do all the bolts". He's also going to build HS5. It'll go from Buckinghamshire to "the cafe in London". He says he can get it done in two days with no excavator. It'll go at five speed and "beside the road". I'm going to let him give it a go.

Got a few funny looks as my toddler had a meltdown because the pub was closed. He loves it in there.

Ian Findlay @ianfindlaytv.bsky.social · 17/03/2025
One of those challenging weekends on the mic as there was a lot of filling with the wind conditions. Worth it for the jumps of the Prevc family though!

Got to visit the air traffic control tower at Vancouver airport last night! Amazing experience, especially climbing out a small hatch to walk around outside!

5 hours until I have to get on a bus to fly home. Making the most of the day because it's 10 hours on a plane tonight. Back to Ski Jumping on Thursday, we might have a lot to talk about 😐

Thank you to everyone who tuned in to the Nordic World Champs on TNT and those on Eurosport outside of the UK. Loved sharing it with you, really appreciate everyone who gets in touch (apologies if I don't get back to you....frantic times at the moment). Busy few days ahead, see you on Thursday!

Domen Prevc exceptional today! Shame to end the world champs the way we did though. We had left tnt 4 when the changes happened.

Women's Ski Jumping from the World Champs, tonight on Eurosport UK at 19.15. We will be the last live programme on Eurosport in the UK. I'm finding it quite hard to be honest. The channel played a huge part in my life both personally and professionally. I think of all of the iconic voices (1/2)

Thank you to everyone who got in touch about the lack of commentary from Sapporo! You saved us today #SkiJumpingFamily

Anyone wanting to watch the ski jumping live in the early hours, it's only on discovery+. Please someone stay up and keep us company! I've not managed a nap today and have to be back at the studio in 90 mins!

03:30 alarm to work on Sapporo ski jumping this morning. Worth it though, great competition! Still running on empty but on Monday I'll be on the beach ☀️

The team combined format at the Alpine World Championships was a hit (for me). Think FIS are on to a winner with it

All smiles in the commentary box with one competition to go. What you can't see is the copious amounts of lemsip tablets and red bull I'm using to get through this weekend!

Au revoir, Eurosport: home of the magnificent, pioneering and strange
After 36 glorious years we will miss this defiantly different programming once it has been swallowed up by TNT Sports

Hard day today. Started at 10.50 and had a 15 minute break at around 1pm before finishing at 5pm. Almost like having a real job

Shopping for properties in British Columbia 🇨🇦 is not a pleasant experience. We have no plans to move nor do we have visas but still, nice to see what we could afford. Which is nothing.

A rare chance for me to sit and watch the second run of a slalom live (I'm normally catching up). Love the Schladming night slalom! And 3 🇬🇧 in the second run!

Basketball in the UK should be selling out 10,000 seater arenas (yes I'm aware about arena issues!) all over the country every week. We have the talent and there is a passionate fan base that can be grown if the product is right

All change in the UK with the Eurosport 1 and 2 merging into TNT Sports. Eurosport has been a massive part of my life and whilst I'll personally be sad to see the brand disappear in the UK, the sport will continue. www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/j...

Absolutely broken after this weekend. 3 days of early starts and a couple of late finishes on Friday and Saturday. Back on Friday after a bit of rest. I'm wiped.
