Did you know that iFLY Orlando won the Indoor Cloud League 12+ competition for the first time? posted: Apr 11th, 2018 The Indoor Cloud League leaderboards for the month of March were both completed while the indoor events in Europe took most of the NSL News attention.
The missing scores and videos came from Northern California where the ICL teams at iFLY SF Bay and iFLY Sacramento once again battled for the dominance in the west coast area.
Both teams have been close to each other in the past, and iFY Sacramento won the 2017 competition over iFLY SF Bay by 114 points (1430 - 1316). Nevertheless, there has not been a monthly competition yet when the two NCSL teams ended up tied with their total number of... (more)
Did you know that MicroClim8 and Brit Chicks resumed an earlier 8-way battle at the World Challenge? posted: Apr 11th, 2018 The latest scores on the leaderboard were still generated at Twinwood Adventures in Bedford with a new World Challenge event that took place only on Sunday.
The World Challenge 2018 was the first time that host Paul Mayer added 8-way competition to the meet agenda, and all ten rounds were scheduled for Sunday. Four British teams, the Intrudairz from Hungary and the international lineup of the Jazz Dragons avoided the award party on Saturday evening as much as possible to be fit for the ten 8-way rounds on Sunday.
The small 8-way competition still offered a great combination of an exciting... (more)
Did you know that World Challenge winner Tempo is ready to make the last step up into the AAA Class competition? posted: Apr 9th, 2018 NSL News coverage of Formation Skydiving competition in Finland has been focusing mostly on two teams in the past, the Pro Team in different variations, and also the Tigers, who both have represented Finland at international competitions.
Neither of the two teams competed at the World Challenge 2018, which is not the only reason why the NSL News is zooming in on other teams from the Scandinavian country.
Pro Team Extended and Heroes of the Arctic Circle won gold medals for Finland in the Rookie Class and the A Class in 2013, and the Pro Team Extended again in the A Class competition of 2016.... (more)
Did you know that NMP PCH HayaBusa and Weembi Mix posted the highest meet averages in 4-way history? posted: Apr 8th, 2018 It's all said and done in 4-way at the World Challenge 2018, and the 8-way teams have taken over the flying chamber on Sunday.
Saturday ended with the award ceremony and the closing party at Twinwoods Adventure in Bedford, after the four rounds that were completed on the second day of the meet.
The second day started with the second fastest sequence of the 10-round meet, which followed two rounds after the world record sequence.

Did you know that NMP PCH HayaBusa won the dramatic Round 5 with the highest score for a round since 2010? posted: Apr 7th, 2018 The World Challenge 2018 is getting close to completion on Saturday afternoon. The NSL News has been supporting the live coverage provided by the event host at Twinwoods Adventure, and there is a lot of footage of interviews and roaming on World Challenge TV.
Most of the teams in Bedford will probably post new team record averages, as a few faster rounds (4 - 5 - 7) offered scoring opportunities. There was no real Super Sequence in the 10-round draw; however, the sequence of Round 5 put three random formations behind Block 9, which is the fastest block in the current dive pool.

The NSL-TV camera recorded some of the training sessions, where both teams were mostly focused on fine-tuning the entry into the flying chamber.
The Weembi Mix consists of two former... (more)
