Did you know that the Fun Flag was flying higher than ever in Dubai? posted: Jan 17th, 2010 There is one more topic of the Dubai Championship that needs to be covered before the NSL News will turn to other events with other stories.
The NSL News audience and visitors at the World Cup 2009 competition in Prostejov, Czech Republic, probably still remember the wild battles for the Fun Flag. It was one of the most exciting and thrilling events in the history of the flag. The flag even made a freefall and a parachute flight in Prostejov.
The British and French delegations were mostly involved in the Fun Flag battle of September 2009. However, neither of them eventually took the Fun Flag... (more)
Did you know that Hayabusa Defence had the last word at the World Cup 2009? posted: Sep 8th, 2009 The NSL News has not offered the conclusion of the Fun Flag story at the FAI World Cup 2009 yet.
The video of the wild battle for the flag after French videographer Sylvain Girault had dropped it from his parachute was posted with the story on 3 September 2009. This was the last Fun Flag update before the NSL News left Prostejov.
There were already rumors by then that France was not in possession of the flag any longer after winning it on the battlefield in the landing area. These rumors connected the UK delegation once again with the flag, although there was no conformation from UK teams... (more)
Did you know that Satori is eager to post more world class scores this weekend? posted: Sep 8th, 2009 The internal competition of the five 4-way teams from the United Kingdom at the FAI World Cup 2009 ended with a clear victory of Sonicnutz.
It was a little bit complicated to determine the fair rankings of all teams since the all-female lineup, Kaizen, competed in the female 4-way category and completed all ten rounds. There was no cut for semifinals and finals in this event due to the low number of teams.
Sonicnutz was the only British 4-way team in the Open Class that made the first cut into the semifinals and was finished after nine rounds. Phobia, Fusion and Escondido completed eight... (more)
Did you know that the French 8-way team had a brillant Fun Flag idea? posted: Sep 3rd, 2009 The NSL News will get to yesterday's final competition action later.
First, it is time for the latest Fun Flag update before the new day begins. It was a wild day for the Flag, and it suffered again, eventually.
There was a constant battle for the Flag, all day long, and it changed possession a few times. The French and UK delegations were the two parties mainly involved. They had sophisticated strategies, including recruited spies, defenders, faking activities and spreading rumors.
Result is the fact that the location of the Flag is currently unknown. (more)
Did you know that the French teams talked about their strong performances? posted: Sep 3rd, 2009 the French teams talked about their strong performances
The scores for Round 8 in 8-way did not change much at all. All five teams are now so far away from each other that the leaderboard will most likely be the same after ten rounds. Russia's Crystal Contour lineup distanced itself by seven points from Spain, and the combination of the two Russian 4-way teams is getting stronger round by round.
There seems to be a chance that this lineup might continue in 2010. Russia has not had a world class 8-way team ever since Evolution Pro discontinued after the World Meet 2004 in Croatia. Russia won... (more)
Did you know that the French national teams control all three events at the World Cup? posted: Sep 2nd, 2009 The 8-way teams completed Round 6 today and have left the drop zone. Germany and France have nothing to fight for, but there is a serious battle going on for the bronze medals.
Spain and Russia are going back and forth round by round, both teams are currently tied in 3rd place.
Round 4 is complete in both 4-way events. Aerokart Deep Blue Maubeuge continues to post impressive results. The 20-average level is very much in reach and probably the main goal for the French team. Chicas and Incognito Leutkirch continue with their battle for the silver medals. Incognito lost a point in each of the... (more)
