Did you know that the USPA Nationals feature re-matches of 2019 in 4-way Open? posted: Oct 14th, 2025 SDC Rhetirement Rhedux and XP Angels, who are also coming back from last year's USPA Nationals, have their own stories, as well. The NSL News has covered the road of XP Angels from the USPA Nationals 2024 to the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2025 comprehensively, and the road does not end there. The U.S. team in 4-way Women enjoyed the international meet atmosphere at Skydive Teuge in the Netherlands and have the outdoor world championship as the next goal.
Rhetirement Rhedux was a new team name on last year's USPA leaderboard, and the team members in 2024 have the international meet experiences in... (more)
Did you know that Aethers Lille posted the team record average under the radar? posted: Oct 2nd, 2025 The dominating French performance of Aethers Lille at the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2025 was somehow almost taken for granted by teams, audience and media. The situation on the world's top level in horizontal 4-way competition reminds somehow on the time when Arizona Airspeed's previous lineup (Niklas Hemlin, Christopher Kuhlmann, Mikhail Markine, Joey Marshall) dominated between 2022 and 2024.
The distance to the team in 2nd place at Skydive Teuge, the Golden Knights, was still almost as large as it was two years earlier at the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2023 in Norway, where Arizona Airspeed won by... (more)
Did you know that the Golden Knights are in a good position after the outdoor world cup? posted: Sep 26th, 2025 The 24.6 average of the Golden Knights at the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2025 was the highest meet average of the current lineup, as the NSL News mentioned a few times during the aftermath. Nick Birkner, Mike Connors, Jeshua Stahler and Mitch Stockenberg have been training and competing together since 2022, with Skyler Romberg on camera since 2024. The performance at Skydive Teuge still has even more meaning than the team's new record number.
The previously highest 10-round average with the same lineup was the 22.9 at the Shamrock Showdown 2024, which was still standing a year later after this year's... (more)
