Did you know that the four teams behind the Top 10 together outscored Purple Maze and Papea?
posted: May 7th, 2023 The Top 10 positions in 4-way Open at the FAI Indoor World Championship 2023 turned out to be quite well defined, as the NSL News reported on May 3rd. Purple Maze (Finland) and Papea (Spain) had eventually created a 9-point difference to the next team in 11th place (Out Of The Blue). Gary Smith still gave the Dutch national team in 4-way Open, Out Of The Blue (OOTB), a lot of credit during his evaluation of the results on April 29th. Mandy Feijen, Mechie VoermansBart and Bart Daenen have been training and competing together since 2017, Bart Daenen was still on camera in the first two years. The... (more)

Did you know that Echochamber lost six points in a very unusual way?
posted: May 6th, 2023 The aftermath of the FAI Indoor World Championship 2023 continues with the part of the 4-way Open Class leaderboard that was promising the tightest and most competitive situation before the event even began with Round 1. Five teams battled round by round for the highest positions behind the four medal contenders, and also behind the Jochen Schweizer Arena Airfource from Germany, who distanced themselves from the same five teams and finished closer to the Qatar Tigers than expected. There was only a 6-point difference between Echochamber (Sweden) in 6th place and Purple Maze (Finland) and... (more)

Did you know that Purple Maze made the Top 10 with one of the cleanest performances?
posted: May 3rd, 2023 The NSL News mentioned in the recent Indoor Cloud League update that the tight competition in 4-way Open and 4-way Women at the FAI Indoor World Championship 2023 still generated only one tie in the rankings on both leaderboards. It was expected that the competition for the 5th place and the Top 10 positions in 4-way Open would offer exciting battles for the better finishes. It was not a big surprise that the only tie of the whole horizontal Formation Skydiving competition eventually happened right at the Top 10 threshold. Purple Maze from Finland and Papea from Spain both were expected to... (more)

Did you know that seven former and current Skydive Midwest NEXT members are on the new ICL Midwest leaderboard?
posted: May 3rd, 2023 It is very unusual if Indoor Cloud League teams end up with tied totals for the six monthly sequences. It is even more unusual when it happens on the top of the leaderboard. In fact, it happened only once in the history of the 14+ leaderboards until the teams of the Hurricane Factory and ICL Midwest finished with 123 points both for the month of April. It was in January 2018 when the Czech teams at the Hurricane Factory and Paraclete XP's lineups tied their totals of 128 points for the highest scoring number. The NSL News reported the unusual situation on 4 February 2018, after both teams had... (more)
