Did you know that only four 4-way Open Class competitors have attended the last four world meets? posted: Sep 28th, 2010 There are not even a handful of 4-way competitors who have competed at each of the last four World Championships of Formation Skydiving. In fact, the number is exactly four, and they are not of the same lineup or even country. However, three of them are still training and competing together: NMP-PCH Hayabusa members Roy Janssen, David and Andy Grauwels.
The fourth 4-way competitor is from Russia. He is the Center Inside for the Sky Panthers, Michail Kuznetsov, and he is now the 4-way competitor who competed at all four world meets between 2004 and 2010 and won the most medals. The Hayabusa members... (more)
Did you know that the SkyQuest 10-year anniversary event comes up in November? posted: Sep 27th, 2010 A year goes by quickly, and the end of the competition season in most parts on the planet means at the same time that SkyQuest is not too far away, each year's final event for the National Skydiving League.
SkyQuest always takes place on the weekend before Thanksgiving and is scheduled for November 18 - 21 this year. BJ Worth's Kaleidoscope Divers will once again mix with the 4-way teams and competitors who would like to add another fun event to the meet experiences in 2010.

Did you know that Airspeed's 1-point moves in Rounds 7 and 8 made the World Meet a thriller? posted: Sep 25th, 2010 The NSL News goes back to the World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2010 with the competition videos of two new rounds. It's once again time for the Top 6 teams, and Rounds 7 and 8 were very exciting ones on the very top of the leaderboard.
The last review of the Top 6 teams on 16 September 2010 mentioned that the new 4-way world champion, Aerodyne Cypres Maubeuge, was the only team that ever defeated Arizona Airspeed's lineup of 2007 - 2010 at an outdoor competition, which turned out to be the World Meet 2010 in Menzelinsk.
The defending world champions of 2008 put up the best fight... (more)
Did you know that only one component is missing so far for Perris Fury? posted: Sep 24th, 2010 The NSL News now continues with the review of the USPA Nationals 2010. The next CamScore competition videos have been uploaded and feature Arizona Airspeed and Perris Fury with Rounds 7 - 10.
Perris Fury did not challenge the defending USPA 4-way champions too seriously at this Airspeed lineup's last national championship. The distance was too much before the final four rounds came up, as Airspeed had mainly used the faster sequences to build a safe cushion in 1st place.
It was a painful competition for Airspeed's Craig Girard, as the NSL News reported live from Skydive Chicago on 10 September... (more)
