Road to Paris: Comeback Kings, Qualifier Queens, and Sensational Swiss

This episode of the Road to Paris, breaking down the Olympic beach volleyball race with Travis Mewhirter, recaps the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Guadalajara Challenge. What a weekend it was, especially fun since we brought Daniel Freitas, aka Producer Thrito, along for the ride, and he cranked out highlight after highlight and provides us with a ton of sweet b roll in this episode. We break down: Trevor Crabb and Theo Brunner becoming the comeback kings, winning all five matches in three sets, and what their gold medal means in the Olympic race Zoe Verge-Depre and Esmee Bobner winning the first gold medals of their careers Sophie Bukovec and Heather Bansley coming out of the qualifier and making another deep run Cuba’s Jorge Alayo and Noslen Diaz and their rocket ship up the Olympic rankings And so much more! If you like this kind of stuff, please share it out. The more views we get, the more we can afford to bring Frito on the road. SHOOTS! *** Want to get better at beach volleyball?
