The tripod was on the ice when you were recording? I hear some real
low frequency thumps in there that make me suspect that there was a
significant solid conductive path to the mics--Beta 58's have a
low-frequency rolloff but the sound is LF-rich. Did you use any
shockmounts?

We don't usually think about the ground under our stands conducting
sound, but in this case...
