Did you know that VFS 4way has the closest race on the top at the moment? posted: Dec 1st, 2012 Round 2 in 8way is complete, and nothing has changed on the top of the leaderboard.

Did you know that Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and Crown Prince Hamdan bin Mohammed are big sports fans? posted: Nov 27th, 2012 It was a very long travel day for the NSL News to move from DeLand, Florida, to Dubai, United Arabian Emirates. However, this update comes live from Dubai, and at least it brings across the first impressions of an event magnitude that the skydiving world has not seen yet.
The arrival at the Dubai International Airport was well planned by the host, and each travel group had a guide who kindly helped everybody to get to the hotels. NSL News Khalid spoke fluently English and explained that Dubai was the first place in the Arabian world that made an effort to teach English as the second language... (more)

However, Round 4 and 5 compensated for Round 3, and the second video features the Thunder highlight and 33-pointer highscore of the meet in Round 7.
