posted Sep 6th, 2005 - Round eight brought the next shocker. After the DeLand Fire dominance throughout the first four rounds yesterday, the Golden Knights had taken control of the meet in rounds five and six.

Pete Allum is the new member of the Italian world class team Italy Sinapsi PD. He is in Perris to compete as the player coach with his "Second Team", Kachina.

The winning US team at the USPA Nationals will be the opponent for his own Italian team at the World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2006 in Germany. That is if he will be IPC eligible by then.
