The 2014 Bouldering World Cup season gets underway this weekend in Chongqing, China, and as usual the event will be streamed live (except not qualifiers for some reason). Bouldering semi-finals will start at 9:15 PM EDT on Saturday while finals will get underway around 4:30 AM EDT on Sunday morning.
Most of the top competition boulderers in the world are on the start list including 2013 champions Anna Stöhr and Dmitrii Sharafutdinov. American Alex Puccio, who finished 3rd overall last year, will be joined by fellow Americans Claire Bresnan, Grace McKeehan and Joel Zerr.
Also worth noting is that the IFSC has released updated live scoring apps for both iOS and Android that you can find out more about here.
Update – Apparently there are some technical issues with the live streams, so these may or may not work. More details here.

Any idea when we can see the footage?

I think they were hoping to get the replays posted by today. I’ll try to post them here whenever that happens.
