Did you know that Joey Jones and Chris Talbert wrapped it up in the last Coaches Corner from Teuge? posted: Sep 12th, 2015 Many events in Formation Skydiving competition with Sun Path Products NSL News live coverage are ending without a last word from the "powered by Sun Path roving reporter Joey Jones". Gary Smith, Chris Talbert and Joey Jones were the main commentators of the daily events at the FAI World Cup 2015.
The last session of the Coaches Corner conversation had to take place without Gary Smith though, who was still in the air with his 8-way team M8trix for Round 10 when the sun was setting and Joey Jones and Chris Talbert were wrapping up the Sun Path Products NSL News live coverage from Teuge.

Did you know that the Fun Flag seems to be in German hands? posted: Sep 10th, 2015 Mike Pennock's plan worked out perfectly for the third day of the FAI World Cup 2015, and the Formation Skydiving competition teams are exactly at the point where they were expected to be at the end of the day. That's according to the number of competition jumps, not necessarily according to the expected rankings and scoring levels...

Did you know that Round 4 might bring a new 8-way world record? posted: Aug 25th, 2014 The last day before the start of the FAI World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2014 went by with beautiful weather and was concluded with the competition draw after the opening ceremony.
