When travelling as a group, each broadcasting skier needs individual following information. Sharing an event name does not mean everyone starts together or finishes at the same time. Ask friends to save your Livebib link with your name and chosen distance. The map displays positions sent by your device when its connection works. Try sharing at home and charge the phone before race day. Then explain when your own outing begins and who will meet you afterwards. This lets companions select different entries and still keep track of each other’s journeys. Check the organiser’s start-area instructions and use their timing for official results.
