Impossible to follow CKLV

[KennyEBHS]

The way Flo structures their coverage makes it almost impossible to follow the tournament. I'll wait for the results tomorrow.

They don't make it easy, but if you change your view to the multi-match view.  You can set up mats 4,5,6,7 which are the quarter finals.

former high school teammates Lorenzo Norman and Danny Wask are facing off on mat 4.  Norman up 6-1 early

Disagree. Floarena makes it very easy to follow. Clicking on the cklv link brings you to the bout board. Click on any match you want to watch. Within floarena you have separate tabs for results and brackets. I think, based on everything that goes into covering such a big event, that floarena presents a very clean and functional interface (Flo, give me free stuff)

just watch in tape delay and watch replays you want as they come available

The Flo app ok your smart TV is frustrating for many reasons that have never been fixed.

If you go to a tournament and look at the match replays that recently occurred, you either cannot scroll through the entire list of all matches that have occurred or it will just perpetually repeat the matches it just showed you when you scroll to the bottom(been like this for years). Very hard to watch select matches. So I used to click on the matches I wanted to see on my phone and then reload the TV app and watch the Continue Watching videos, but that is gone now. Not sure when Continue Watching disappeared, but this shouldn't be what anyone has to count on, but if you're watching one match at a time because there is no split view on TV and it is the quarters and multiple mats have matches you want, then you need to be able to track down replays of matches that just occurred.

+1. I casually watched at work in real time on my pc and then watched replays at home on my phone. Brackets, click a match, and it shows up. Or search by wrestler. Not sure how much easier it could be. 
 

OP if the problem is the TV app, don’t use it. Phone and PC is super easy. You can cast to your tv too probably if you want a bigger screen.

I hadn't thought that the OP might be talking about the TV app. In which case, yeah, that app is a piece of garbage

I don’t get it. Floarena tells you the mats.  Just watch the match you want on the TV app.  What is so hard about this?

For some reason the live matches don't allow you to fast forward.  I don't have any issues with the old matches.

This was also true on site so don't think it was a Flo issue.

I’ve tried to fast forward many live matches but have never been successful.  For some damn reason it makes you watch in real time.  Freaking infuriating.

Flo should find a way to break all known space-time laws.  Losers.

The Spirits of St. Louis figured this out decades ago, why can't Flo?

I am not sure why OP had so much difficulty navigating FloArena.

Once you're used to it, it's real easy.

Aside for that, if it was more the "I can't find the page to get to the page" sort of thing, then I think I do understand where you're coming from.  There were many pages that had team/school specific data (results and whatnot).

In the future, because they do this for many tournaments throughout the year, the very top of the page should be something in red - for this tournament it was '2024 Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational' in all CAPS.

This will take you to the tournament dashboard.  From here it is easy to call brackets, sort via weight classes, even wrestlers if you wish.

@KennyEBHS, I hope I helped.
