Martin Bochatay is the drone cam pilot for the money shots inside the iconic Tofana schuss, the narrow chute between two walls of Dolomite rock. He is part of a team in control of the buzzing machines that are flying right behind Olympians as they go for gold at the Milan Cortina Games, offering stunning and high-pace visuals to TV viewers back home.

Before this season, the only feed a coaching staff could see in its booth was the broadcast footage, and depending on what window the game was played in, that view was often late and limited. Prime-time games have more broadcast cameras and, therefore, more angles to view, whereas games played in the 1 p.m. window have fewer broadcast cameras and made it particularly difficult for coaches in the booth to get a good angle on a specific play.
