Did you know that new NSL-TV CamScore videos feature several 8-way teams at the USPA Nationals 2010?
posted: Oct 4th, 2010 The NSL News followed the 8-way Open Class competition at the USPA Nationals 2010 with two stories. The first story on 13 September 2010 was posted after the 8-way teams had completed three rounds. The competition was still open at that time, even though it was almost impossible to imagine that Arizona Airspeed would be able to keep up with the Golden Knights. It happened though, as Airspeed needed Round 1 to warm up and then tied the Golden Knights scores in Round 2 and Round 3. Things seemed to settle as expected when the US Army team won Round 4 and Round 5 by three points each. However,... (more)

posted: Oct 1st, 2010 The status of the Fun Flag was updated by the NSL News in eight stories during the coverage of the World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2010. The Fun Flag made the headlines three times, and the last update was posted on 5 August 2010: "The NSL News used the time after the jump planes took off and the landing for a new NSL Talk session with Joey Jones and Thomas Hughes. This NSL Talk included an update of the Fun Flag situation. Thomas Hughes reported that his successful effort to get the flag, live during another NSL Talk session, did not give the US delegation possession for a very long... (more)

Did you know that DeLand Shmeland XP won this year's unofficial US amateur title?
posted: Sep 30th, 2010 The NSL News has covered the unofficial category of the "amateur teams" for a long time, as a part of the World Championships of Formation Skydiving as well as the USPA Nationals. There is no definition for this category, and it is impossible to draw a clear line between weekend amateur and real professional competitors. However, there is still a difference between the top teams and full time skydivers and the other passionate competitors who spend a lot of time and money to become as good as they can be according to their limited efforts. The NSL News has tried to honor those "amateur" teams... (more)

posted: Sep 29th, 2010 The NSL News story on 12 September 2010 came live from the USPA Nationals 2010 and included the videos of three teams and their first three rounds. The storyline was the competition for the USPA bronze medals, and the featured teams were the Golden Knights Gold, Paraclete XP4 and SDC Rhythm XP. The NSL News now follows up with the next three rounds of the same three teams. The storyline is the same as it was still a competition for the bronze medals after six rounds. The final results saw the Golden Knights Gold team eight points ahead in 3rd place, however, the race was still open enough after... (more)

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)
