Did you know that Random Fixation keeps Australia on the 4-way Open Class leaderboard?
posted: Oct 18th, 2026 The same location that hosted the NSL Live Talk conversation withSven Ibens and Andy Grauwels later served as the setting for a discussion with Australia’s 4-way Open Class team, Random Fixation. This time, there was no need to relocate during the conversation when rain unexpectedly interrupted activities before. The FAI Outdoor World Championship 2026 marks the first major international event for Australia’s national 4-way Open team. Random Fixation were still competing in the A Class just three years ago before moving up to the AA Class in 2024. At the end of that season, the team made the... (more)

Did you know that only two registered teams have yet to appear in Eloy?
posted: Oct 17th, 2026 Saturday turned out to be the busiest day since the NSL News arrived at Skydive Arizona. The weather remained threatening throughout the day, but fortunately, it never disrupted skydiving operations. All teams had opportunities to warm up, thanks to the Skydive Arizona staff and Twin Otter fleet, which were ready to handle the busy schedule. Only two of the 13 registered 4-way Open Class teams had yet to appear: Skywalkers Most from the Czech Republic and Flyspot Sky4Four from Poland. Both still have Sunday to arrive, with the final day of training jumps also available before the competition... (more)

Did you know that Airbus Members Alexander Prendinger and Felix Pfeiffer take on 4-way and 8-way double duties for the second time?
posted: Oct 17th, 2026 Friday brought another day of weather conditions that prevented participants in the FAI Outdoor World Championship 2026 from training at Skydive Arizona, along with all other skydiving activities. This time, strong winds swept through the area throughout the day, while blowing sand and dust also compromised visibility. However, Arizona weather can change quickly, and Saturday morning brought the expected conditions for jumping. Teams and competitors were eager to make the most of the remaining days before the competition begins, taking the opportunity to complete training jumps they had missed.... (more)

Did you know that the race for 4-Way Open Class gold goes beyond winning in Eloy?
posted: Oct 16th, 2026 The NSL News published its last update on the Fun Flag situation on July 20th, followed by additional information a day later. Those updates were an almost desperate appeal to restore the Fun Flag to its original purpose and make it part of the formation skydiving community and its events once again. It was a welcome development when competitors at other skydiving events decided to fly the Fun Flag at their own competitions, adding an extra element of fun while reminding participants of another important aspect of competition. However, the Fun Flag was created by the formation skydiving community... (more)

Did you know that training in Eloy intensifies by the day?
posted: Oct 15th, 2026 Day by day, Skydive Arizona is getting busier as teams and competitors continue to arrive, warm up, and familiarize themselves with the facilities ahead of the FAI Outdoor World Championship 2026. Thursday was one of the final four days available for participants to complete their preparations, with Round 1 of the Formation Skydiving events scheduled to begin on Monday morning. Thursday once again began with both French 4-way teams on the earliest loads of the day. Nephtys Maubeuge is under relatively little pressure to fine-tune the team performance ahead of the competition. With limited opposition... (more)
