Did you know that U.S. 8-way teams could win more than one set of medals in Norway? posted: Jul 4th, 2023 One of the earlier previews of the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2023 introduced the U.S. delegation on June 1st. It was not the complete U.S. delegation that was covered at that time. The NSL News knew by then that at least the three national teams in horizontal Formation Skydiving competition, Arizona Airspeed - XPG4 - XPGK8, would travel to Voss in Norway, together with a few additional U.S. teams (SDC Rhythm XP, SNE Fly Girls, Prison 9).
This alone was an extraordinary situation, as the update pointed out. It has never happened in the history of Formation Skydiving competition since 1985 that so... (more)

Did you know that Skywalkers Junior re-connected with HF Flying Rebels and HF Chameleons? posted: Jul 1st, 2023 The summer situation in the Czech Republic continues to separate the 4-way juniors from the seniors, even though Skywalkers Junior are demonstrating a new and different bridge between indoor and outdoor training and competition.
The former 4-way juniors of the HF Flying Rebels and HF Chameleons did not only make the step from the indoor beginnings years ago to AFF training and then to eventually joining forces for their first outdoor 4-way team. They also returned to their school place of the past years at the Hurricane Factory when it was time to perform the June sequences of the Indoor Cloud... (more)
Did you know that Alola may turn the table in the re-match with SNE Fly Girls? posted: Jun 30th, 2023 The first NSL Power Rankings of the 4-way Women competition at the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2023 had only five teams on the leaderboard. The number of confirmed teams after the preview on June 9th has gone up to seven, which is already three higher than the participation at the FAI Outdoor World Championship 2022.
Nothing has changed for the same five teams with the expected finishing positions. However, the two newly listed teams still change the power situation, as the competition behind the Top 4 could become very interesting. The previous results and progression of the three teams, Thyra -... (more)

The teams are athletically opponents, while they work together in many ways.
Even the team's hosts, Skydive Chicago and Skydive Midwest, have recently worked together quite closely. They teamed up to run USPA's national skydiving championships together. Both locations hosted different disciplines, and the two Midwest teams, along with all other teams in the Formation Skydiving events, completed their... (more)
