doesn't the guy get money from youtube ?
And I bet his internet is better than mine.
Basically it's begging money for someone who already has money.
I mean, really ?

No it’s not by him it’s organised by someone else , channing doesn’t know, well he might because it’s on here.
It’s a great competition he puts on and if his live streams weren’t glitching it would be even better

It's possible, but it's still not very fast. It freezes quite a bit during his live streams.
And the amount of money he gets from YT is probably pennies, given the number of views on his videos.

+1 to IG's comment. I don't think anyone has the knowledge to speak about Channing's financial situation.
Also agree on the freezing up being a big distraction. I think it's been getting worse. The competitions have been awesome outside of that.

If you know somewhere else where there's a weekly sling competition, please let us know.

the online competitions are generally a good idea. but a diane is a diane. it has very clearly defined dimensions. the height to the floor is also clearly defined. as are the tennis balls. they are not filled with water or made wet just to make them fly better. are these competitions a reason to fund someone internet? at least not for me. or do you want to pay for my internet too? Here you go. I don't stop her

The guy flew out to Ibiza from America last year, he's not exactly stoney broke.
That's not a cheap journey.
To be fair, it's not Channing doing this and mersas just a thoroughly good egg trying to help out a mate.
It's the whole current culture of begging I object to
And it's probably a generational thing.
There was a woman on telly last night who'd quit her job to play video games on twitch while people watched her playing video games.
And she was complaining that she was being forced to play long hours.
Like there was no freedom of choice involved.
Essentially she was begging for more money to play video games.
And it's become culturally acceptable.
Instead of asking for money, why doesn't someone with a much faster internet connection host the feed ?
The simple and obvious solution.
The technology exists, use it.
