With what appears to be the biggest turnout in MWSL history, ten teams took advantage of the opportunity to get a preview of what the big meet will be like.
While the official meet was six rounds, three of the teams continued to complete all ten, and a number of them exited from 10,500 feet to simulate the... (more)

Did you know that SDC Jetstream Tango beat the 10-average benchmark in the team's 5th year? posted: Jun 28th, 2013 The teams of the Midwest Skydiving League enjoyed much better weather last weekend compared to the season opener in May where six teams struggled to make any competition jumps. Ten teams attended the meet at Skydive Chicago, host of the USPA Nationals 2013.
Only one of this year's 16 MWSL teams posted scores at both events, and 55 North used last weekend's competition to make up for the only two rounds at Chicagoland Skydiving. The AA Class team improved the meet average to 6.4 after completing all ten rounds.

Did you know that Midwest and Czech Republic were far in distance but close in weather? posted: May 29th, 2013 Last weekend's leaderboard is complete and shows that bad weather had a serious impact at all three locations (Midwest, Northern Plains, Czech Republic).
Chicagoland Skydiving Center and Pribram in the Czech Republic are very far away from each other and still had both only two complete rounds.
The situation in the Midwest was even worse, as only two teams had 35 seconds of working time in the whole meet (Round 2 in the AA Class). All other jumps were made from reduced altitude, and the scores have been extrapolated from 20/25 seconds to 35 seconds.May 25th, 2013Round 1Round 2Round 3Round... (more)

It was a beautiful morning with great jumping conditions, and six teams came to take advantage of it.
Three of those teams registered for the AA Class, and they were all welcomed by a slow competition draw. The Hawks were joined by new team SDC Edge and veterans Jetstream Tango, back for their fourth season of MWSL competition.
Despite a costly video problem in Round 1, Tango gave the Hawks a run for their money, but finished 2nd by three points in the weather shortened meet. Edge... (more)
