Crankworx World Tour

Live Action Sports Broadcast Production

Crankworx isn’t a studio show. It’s loud, fast, unpredictable, and happens in places that were not designed with live broadcast in mind. That’s the appeal. And that’s the problem we’re there to solve. Across the Crankworx World Tour, Boombox delivers live mountain bike broadcast production for some of the biggest moments in action sports. Slopestyle. Downhill. Dual Slalom. Pump Track. Events where the margins are thin, the athletes are flying, and you only get one shot to catch it clean.

MISSION

Mountain Biking Broadcast Workflows That Don’t Miss a Beat

Producing live Crankworx broadcast coverage means embracing the realities of action sports. Weather shifts. Light changes. Athletes rewriting the script mid-run. We build multi-camera mountain bike broadcast workflows that can flex in real time, capturing the speed, scale, and stakes of each discipline without sanding off the edge that makes Crankworx what it is.

The Crankworx World Tour constantly looks to push boundaries on Broadcast tech. Recent Highlights include: first ever FPV follow drone usage in a live MTB broadcast, fully remote graphics integration (the team from Rawmotion was in Austria while the competition was taking place in British Columbia) and use (maybe abuse?) of public internet and SRT protocols that allows us to remotely edit features and highlight shows from Boombox HQ in Saint-Sauveur, Quebec
