posted Nov 10th, 2026 - The British Indoor Nationals took place once again at Weembi Lille in France, where the indoor 8-way competition is automatically included in the formation skydiving event format. A total of 41 teams competed across the four NSL categories (AAA - AA - A - RRR). This represents a new participation record since the British Indoor Skydiving Association (BISA) began offering indoor national championships to British 4-way teams and guest teams in 2022.

Holding the British National Indoor Championships at Weembi Lille naturally adds international 4-way competitors to the field. This year, five of the fifteen teams on the AAA Class leaderboard were not eligible for British indoor medals, including the two teams at the top of the leaderboard, Dynos and Weembi Slow Rollers.

Both teams had British 4-way competitors in their lineups: Vana Parker and Sean Stokes with the Dynos, and Mark Fletcher and Hari Ganapathy with the Weembi High Rollers. However, Julien Degen (France) and Pal Kolbenstvedt (Norway) made the Dynos an international guest team, while Julien Degen and Roy Janssen (Belgium) did the same to the Weembi High Rollers. PARALLAX and Sora also had guest competitors in their lineups, while the Swiss Airdrops represented their country as the national 4-way Women team. They had also represented Switzerland in 4-way Women at this year's FAI Indoor World Cup.

NFTO - Catalyst at the British Indoor Nationals 2026

---

Dynos and Weembi Slow Rollers are by now well known as international teams with player-coaches. French 4-way and 8-way world champion Julien Degen was once again busy with double duties on his home turf, serving as a player-coach for both teams, which finished in the top two places on the AAA Class leaderboard. They delivered the same world-class scores and averages that have become familiar from their previous appearances.

The new British national indoor champion team, NFTO, finished 3rd on the overall leaderboard and successfully defended its 2025 British indoor title with a different lineup. Julia Swallow and Pete Allum had just returned from Arizona, where they competed with S.O.A.R. for Great Britain at the FAI Outdoor World Championship 2026.

Original NFTO member Anna Lea, formerly Anna Hicks, rejoined her 4-way Women world champion teammates from Eloy 2022, Vana Parker and Sian Stokes, to fill one of the two available slots in the NFTO lineup. She had also competed at the outdoor world championship last month, finishing 27th among 47 Speed Skydiving competitors. The fourth slot was the surprise addition to this NFTO lineup, which had already moved away from its 4-way Women identity when Pete Allum was invited to join the team for 4-way Open Class competition. Vana Parker's son Tano joined NFTO at Weembi Lille and posted a 24.6 average in his first high-profile competition.

The NSL News first introduced Tano Parker on 23 March 2025, after he had joined the British outdoor team Kairos at the age of 20. Kairos finished in 2nd place at the British Outdoor Nationals 2025, where S.O.A.R. won and qualified for the FAI Outdoor World Championship 2026.

Tano Parker was even ready for double duties in 4-way at the British Indoor Nationals, where the entire Parker family also competed in the AA Class competition. Parents Vana and Dennis Parker completed another lineup with their two children, Abby and Tano Parker. It's All Relative finished in 3rd place on the AA Class leaderboard, earning Abby Parker her first BISA medal.

There was even more to come for Vana, Dennis and Tano Parker, who are also members of the new British 8-way team, Catalyst. The team won the 8-way competition with a new British 8-way record average. Catalyst plans to continue next year and eventually compete as part of the British delegation at the 2028 outdoor world championship. Vana Parker still had not had enough formation skydiving competition at Weembi Lille. She completed her triple duties by taking her usual 4-way slot with the Dynos, alongside her NFTO teammate Sian Stokes. Vana Parker and her son Tano could face some of the most demanding 4-way and 8-way double duties in the near future, as they plan to compete for Great Britain at future outdoor world championships.
