Did you know that France created the winning 9-point difference over Tanay in Rounds 4 - 8? posted: Oct 5th, 2016 The Sun Path Products NSL News went back yesterday to the 8-way competition at the FAI Mondial 2016 after uploading all ten competition rounds of the Golden Knights. The story also covered the overwhelming dominance of the U.S. Army team since the Mondial Dubai 2012.
The video coverage of the French national 8-way team was incomplete, as well, and the missing three rounds have now been added to the latest NSL-TV clip. The ten rounds of the Russian national 8-way team Tanay were posted earlier, and both videos offer a review of the competition for the silver medals in Ottawa.

Did you know that the Golden Knights have not lost or tied a round since December 2012? posted: Oct 4th, 2016 The completion of the Russian Nationals 2016 and the live coverage from Tanay in Siberia allows the Sun Path Products NSL News to go back to the FAI Mondial 2016, where the aftermath is far from being complete.
An earlier update from Skydive Chicago featured the 8-way competition videos of the Golden Knights through Round 6, and the missing four videos have not been added so far. The new video clip features all ten rounds of the old and new 8-way world champions.
It is once again a historic 8-way video, as the U.S. Army team finished with a 23.9 average, which is the highest 8-way performance... (more)
Did you know that Black Cat and Barguzin bronze medalists of 2004 and 2010 had their own battle in Tanay? posted: Oct 1st, 2016 Black Cat has been the old and new Russian national 4-way champion for a few days, even though the official crowning of all Russian skydiving champions is scheduled for Saturday at the Russian Nationals 2016.
There was never a doubt that Black Cat would defend the 4-way title successfully, even though Barguzin scared the Russian national team seriously in Round 1. Barguzin had former Barkli members Vladimir Pavlenko and Sergey Shenin in their lineup, who have been team mates with Black Cat members Valentin Ilin, Vasily Korotkov and Evgeny Stashchenko in several different teams and at many 4-way...

Did you know that the Russian Nationals continued with two jump-off rounds and 16-way? posted: Sep 30th, 2016 The 4-way and 8-way leaderboards at the Russian Nationals 2016 have been complete for two days, at least for most of the teams.
XO Team and DOSAAF RO had to go into over-time after being tied in 3rd place at the end of the 10-round meet. The start of the 16-way competition was scheduled for Thursday morning, while 4-way was completed on Wednesday. However, the two teams in 3rd place had to get up a little bit earlier on Thursday to perform their jump-off round before the 16-way teams would get in the air.
The first jump-off round did not break the tie after two 13-pointers, and the meet director... (more)
Did you know that DZ Grozniy had redemption this week for the Infra Red Band performance at the Mondial? posted: Sep 29th, 2016 The new Sun Path Products NSL News update connects both most recent events once again directly with each other, the FAI Mondial 2016 and the Russian Nationals 2016.
Russia was represented by four teams in the Formation Skydiving competition at the Mondial, and DZ Grozniy competed in 4-way Women. It is the 4th year for the same team with different lineups, who competed formerly under the Infra Red Band name.
Team captain Evgenia Korjova said that her team under-performed at the Mondial, where they were aiming at a 15-average scoring level. DZ Grozniy now used the Russian Nationals to show... (more)
Did you know that Black Cat will defend the Russian double gold successfully? posted: Sep 28th, 2016 It is past half time in the 4-way competition of the Russian Nationals 2016, and all ten rounds will most likely be completed on Wednesday. The beautiful fall weather in Siberia made it easy for the host to get the two traditional Formation Skydiving events done within four days, while keeping them separated from each other.
The same three Black Cat members who competed in both events at the FAI Mondial 2016 (Valentin Ilin, Vasily Korotkov, Evgeny Stashchenko) will once again collect two gold medals for their double duties, as they did last year.
This is still a special occasion, even for... (more)
