Did you know that Round 8 was a wind tunnel round?
posted: Mar 14th, 2007 All three top teams of the Valentine's Meet 2007 have access to a wind tunnel close by. The French team has to travel from Maubeuge to Paris to train in a 16-footer. Airspeed Odyssey has a 14-footer on home turf, and Perris Fury can train in the 12-footer at Perris Valley Skydiving. (more)

Did you know that DeLand has 350 seconds to defend its turf?
posted: Mar 14th, 2007 By Jennifer Horton BEACON STAFF WRITER Thirty-five seconds to win. Thirty-five seconds to be the best in the air. Competitive skydiving teams from all over the world will leap out of perfectly good airplanes in the Shamrock Skydiving Showdown in national skydiving's East Coast season-opener. To watch for yourself as they fall out of the sky, grab binoculars and a blanket or chair, and claim a piece of turf at the DeLand Municipal Airport. The competition should provide spectators with plenty to watch throughout Saturday and Sunday, March 17 and 18. Skydiving begins 9 a.m. both days. Between... (more)

Did you know that the Valentines' Meet 2007 set the 2007 baseline for Texas Havoc?
posted: Mar 13th, 2007 NSL-TV continues to move on quickly. It was the goal to complete the coverage of the Valentine's Meet 2007 before the start of the FSL Shamrock Showdown 2007, and NSL-TV is right on track so far. Round 7 was uploaded today, and there are three more days for three more rounds. Processing and editing the footage has become easier and faster after the completion of the first six rounds. Only six of the 13 teams completed all ten rounds, which reduces the NSL-TV time and efforts by more than 50% between rounds seven and ten. (more)

Did you know that the AA Class competition had a dramatic finish in Eloy?
posted: Mar 12th, 2007 Round 6 of the Valentine's Meet 2007 completed the competition for the teams that did not participate in the money meet, which went over ten rounds. The three AA Class and two A Class teams were finished after six rounds, as well as Arizona Directe and Arizona Divewerkz in the AAA Class. The competition in the AA Class had quite a dramatic finish. All three teams were separated by only two points after five rounds. The tension was apparently high and even visible on the videos.

Did you know that the cash jackpot for the Shamrock Showdown is already at $4,100?
posted: Mar 11th, 2007 The NSL-TV coverage of the Valentine's Meet 2007 keeps a lot of attention still focused on the first competition of the 2007 season. It almost distracts from the fact that the next high-profile competition is already coming up next weekend. The FSL Shamrock Showdown 2007 is coming up for the 6th time at Skydive DeLand. The first Shamrock Showdown with the current format was already held in 2002. It used to be the third meet of the regular Florida Skydiving League season in 2002 and 2003. The FSL ran meets in January and February back then, as well. The FSL decided in 2004 to offer teams and... (more)

Did you know that Round 5 was the first on-line showdown between Golden Knights, Fastrax and Airspeed Odyssey?
posted: Mar 9th, 2007 Round 5 of the Valentine's Meet 2007 had one of the fastest AAA Class sequences of the competition in Eloy. In fact, the three random formations and Block 5 (Opal - Opal) indicated that it might be the fastest round of the 10-round meet. The other faster rounds (1 and 8) included slower blocks (22 and 14). The mirror image or slot switcher that comes along with Block 5 made the sequence more challenging. Eventually, Round 5 turned out to be only in second place (121 - 114 - 109), according to the scores of the six AAA Class teams that completed all ten rounds. (more)
