News Article Did you know that seven teams braved the weather in Florida?
posted: Apr 22nd, 2013 Bad weather interfered with the outdoor season openers both in North Carolina and Florida. However, six teams beat the challenging weather conditions at Skydive City to complete up to four rounds, while teams at Skydive DeLand had no luck on Saturday and not much more on Sunday. Most of the lineups in Florida consisted of skydivers who have attended the FSL Tunnel Kicker indoor project at iFLY Orlando, which was launched in July 2012. The next tunnel event is scheduled for tonight and will compensate for the efforts to brave the weather last weekend. Bob Byrne was organizing the competition... (more)
News Article Did you know that Whooops outscored Barkli after handicap?
posted: Apr 21st, 2013 Russia's national team Barkli competed at the Paraclete XP Outdoor Championship 2013 in the middle of this year's training camp in DeLand. Barkli then went back to Russia and visited again a week ago for the next spring training. The Dutch national team Whooops competed at the Mondial Dubai 2012 in December and went into winter hibernation after that. The long outdoor break is over now, and Whooops launched the 2013 season with a training camp in DeLand at the same time as the Russian national team. Both teams accomplished their goals and completed over 100 training jumps in ten days. Then... (more)
News Article Did you know that Black Cat has a travel agenda this year?
posted: Apr 19th, 2013 The Open Class competition at the USPA Nationals 2011 had three teams registered as guests. Black Cat, the visitors from Russia, were also one of the busiest competition teams of the 2011 season after attending a total of six meets. The Black Cat travel agenda of 2011 was almost like a complete trip around the globe with stops in Dubai (January), Eloy (February), DeLand (March), on home turf in Russia (April, September) and back in Eloy for the USPA Nationals at the end of October. Black Cat is also one of the longest standing teams in the 4way world, and some team members go back as far as... (more)
News Article Did you know that Skydive City hosted a Wind Damaged reunion at the final FSL meet of the regular 2012 season?
posted: Sep 25th, 2012 Five more teams competed last weekend at Skydive City, but only one AAA Class team had the opportunity to experience the Super Sequence in Round 4. Teiwaz finished shortly behind the two AAA Class top teams from Texas in Round 4 and tied the Dallas Pulse score with a 23-pointer after two point deductions. The main competition at Skydive City took place in the A Class where three teams attended the last meet of the regular 2012 season. The Super Sequence also trickled down into the A Class with the first three Random Formations (J-F-E) of the sequence and offered a great scoring opportunity. However,... (more)
News Article Did you know that SOCOM member Juan Lopez made a big step last weekend?
posted: Aug 24th, 2012 Another quick update is overdue after last weekend's meets. The Florida Skydiving League competed together with the teams from the Czech Republic and had bad luck with Florida's summer weather on Saturday. Bob Byrne reported from Skydive City that he had five teams present and ready to go on Saturday. The weather did not allow the completion of any rounds, and only two teams were prepared to come back on Sunday. The new Rookie Class lineup from Skydive City, Pyro4ic, is a team formed by Z-Scrambles and FSL Tunnel Kicker participants. Laura Song helped as a player coach guiding the team through... (more)
News Article Did you know that FSL teams and competitors are now waiting for NWSL scores?
posted: Jul 23rd, 2012 The new leaderboard of last weekend's events begins to take shape, even though the weather did not make it very easy. Teams in Florida managed to complete several rounds, while the Karp Cup of the MidAtlantic Skydiving League was completely weathered out. MASL Director Dennis Miller reported that six teams were ready for action, and only two of them were able to do the first round. Two additional teams had cancelled earlier due to the forecast, and it turned out to be a wise decision, as the Karp Cup was officially postponed after five hours of weather hold. The next MASL meet on August 11 is... (more)
