The sequences of Round 1 are featured by the teams that won the competition in their respective competition classes. Sebastian Tempest shows the AAA Class sequence.

Did you know that BJ Worth has a "License to Thrill"?
posted: Nov 25th, 2008 The NSL News mentioned during the SkyQuest 2008 coverage (21 November 2008) that BJ Worth and Kurt Gaebel had to make a quick trip to Orlando early Friday morning due to an invitation by a local news channel. The live morning show featured the Kaleidoscope Dives organizer and the NSL founder with a "License to Thrill", leaning on BJ Worth's history with James Bond movies. The NSL News had sent press releases to the local media after a successful Thursday for the Kaleidoscope Divers in DeLand, and the FOX News 35 channel reacted quickly with the invitation to the live morning show. The visit... (more)

Did you know that top competitors have provided more event duration input?
posted: Nov 24th, 2008 The NSL News story on 14 November 2008 covered the discussion of the event duration at the World Meet 2008. The article inspired a few active competitors tp provide feedback directly to Fiona McEachern, Australian Chair of IPC's Formation Skydiving Committee. Two of the world's top 4-way competitors commented the NSL News story and sent their valuable input to Australia and the IPC (International Parachuting Commission). Steve Hamilton is a former member of the British national team XL and a 4-way veteran. He placed 3rd with an XL re-union lineup at the World Challenge 2007 (26.1 average) and... (more)

The FOX 35 News channel had invited Mr. James Bond and the NSL founder to the morning show. BJ Worth had to explain what he has been doing for the movies and Kurt Gaebel what was going on this weekend in DeLand. The TV channel ran a nice clip of SkyQuest action during the live interview....

Did you know that the 2008 Kaleidoscope Divers had the best start ever?
posted: Nov 20th, 2008 The first day of SkyQuest 2008 is over, and it was a day without 4-way competition, as the NSL Championship always kicks off on Friday afternoon. However, there were surely several Formation Skydiving competitors involved in today's three Kaleidoscope Dives. Most beautiful fall weather provided almost perfect conditions in DeLand. The only flaw was the missing Skyvan, which had to be replaced by Skydive DeLand's Pac on the first day of the event. The size of the formations had to be limited to 102-ways. A few Kaleidoscope Divers volunteered to watch from the ground, including Skydive DeLand's... (more)

Did you know that many 4-way and 8-way competitors supported Germany's 200-way in Eloy?
posted: Nov 19th, 2008 There was recently another big-way event at Skydive Arizona with a lot of overlapping between recreational skydivers and Formation Skydiving competitors. Three members of the former German national 4-way team Daedalus (Dieter Kirsch, Christoph Aarns, Pitt Weber), who have successfully been running skydiving centers in Germany (Hoexter, Eisenach), organized a new record attempt for the largest national freefall formation. 200 German skydivers gathered last week in Eloy and completed the 200-way formation with the 13th jump from 18,000 feet. This record counts officially as the new German record... (more)
