Did you know that the combination of an exit Canadian T and a turning jump plane causes trouble? posted: Aug 16th, 2013 Traditional 4way competition is now in full swing on Friday afternoon.

The Aerodyne French Girls looked a little bit more cautious than yesterday and gave up a point. The new competition videos include Round 6 of the Golden Knights.
It looked similarly between Bodyflight Isis and Kaizen where Isis picked up the pace and two points in the same round. It is now a... (more)
Did you know that Eric Heinsheimer welcomes the audience to a new NSL Reality TV Show? posted: Aug 16th, 2013 The 8way competition at the World Cup 2013 was continued after a change of plans. The teams will complete nine rounds today and finish up tomorrow.
France was standing at a 22.0 average after Round 8, and it will be very difficult to get to 230 points at the end of the competition. The sequence of Round 9 has a fast part with three random formations but is followed by a slow block.
The Golden Knights will most likely keep the highest meet average in history on their side, and Eric Heinsheimer will continue to own the 31-point world record for a single round since 1997. He anchored today's... (more)

Did you know that UK teams are in control of the Fun Flag and the leaderboards? posted: Aug 16th, 2013 The Fun Flag has made the the headlines of the Sun Path Products NSL News once so far, when UK team Eclipse came forward with an update. The flag has changed its location several times since arrival, and the UK delegation has been heavily involved.
One of the spots was a tricky location. The flag was not really flying, even though it was in closest range of all teams and competitors at the DZ of Banja Luka. Eclipse members had positioned it in a little control tower right next to the boarding area where it was for quite a while.
However, Bodyflight Isis then provided the newest evidence last... (more)

Did you know that France is on track for a new record average in 8way? posted: Aug 15th, 2013 The last Sun Path Products NSL News update from Banja Luka mentioned briefly that the French national 8way team, Aerodyne Maubeuge, was still be chasing down the highest meet average in history, which the Golden Knights had between 1997 and 2012, before last year's US Army lineup brought it up from 22.2 to 29.9 at the Mondial Dubai 2012.
The same French lineup that posted the 22.5 average in Dubai is now competing for the last time together in Banja Luka. The 23.4 average after five rounds is a solid foundation to challenge the 22.9 average of the Golden Knights.
Aerodyne Maubeuge made 50... (more)
