Universal Sports Network on the Circuit With Alpine Ski World Cup
Universal Sports Network is continuing its presentation of the Alpine Ski World Cup circuit both linearly and via a comprehensive online subscription offering.
The Olympic sports proponent is on the slopes this weekend with coverage of the women, including Lindsey Vonn and Julia Mancuso, vying in giant slalom on Jan. 21 at 2 p.m. (ET) and the slalom event on Jan. 22 at 11 a.m. from Kranjska Gora, Slovenia. The competition was previously scheduled for Maribor, Slovenia but was relocated due to a lack of snow.
Conversely, Universal Sports Network's coverage plans of the men's competition, featuring Tim Ligety and Bode Miller from Kitzbuehel, Austria was shut down this week for too much wet white stuff. The men are scheduled to move to Schladming, Austria for the slalom on Jan. 24 at 2 p.m. Check out Universal Sports TV schedule below.
Universal Sports' expansive online coverage includes live streaming of Ski World Cup events for a subscription price of $59.99 for the entire season, or $7.99 for each stop. More information is available at http://www.universalsports.com/alpine-skiing/index.html
A joint venture of Leo Hindery's InterMedia Partners L.P. and NBC, Universal Sports Network transitioned with the new year from principally a multicast service to a multi-platform, high definition cable, satellite and IPTV service. Currently, DirecTV and several other cable providers offer Universal Sports Network.
