posted Nov 24th, 2014 - The ISR Grand Prix 2014 is coming up this weekend, and it promises world class indoor 4-way competition.

The new record number of 55 teams shows how popular this event has become over the years. The FAI World Cup of Indoor Skydiving earlier this month attracted only eight 4-way teams to the competition at iFLY Austin.

One of the eight teams in Austin is also traveling to Roosendaal. The Bad Boys, Czech national 4-way team, is the first FAI indoor world champion after winning the Open Class competition at the newly invented event this month. Several teams in Roosendaal will now challenge the Czech world champions, and it will be very difficult for the Bad Boys to defend the top spot against a world class team like Thunder ISR.
