News Article Did you know that three Operation Adler members keep a close eye on Airbus Illertissen?
posted: Oct 21st, 2026 The Formation Skydiving competition teams were on a weather hold in all three events on Wednesday morning. The 8-way teams were scheduled to jump Round 8 before the 4-way teams were due to be called into action at noon. However, all teams have now been released until later this morning. The 8-way teams had wrapped up their competition day on Tuesday, putting them one round ahead of the 4-way teams.

News Article Did you know that Clementine Le Bohec and Jeana Billings have secured the top positions?
posted: Oct 20th, 2026 The 4-way teams completed three more rounds today, adding to the three rounds flown on the opening day yesterday. Little has changed at the top of the leaderboard, except that the competition has returned to a situation in which France’s Aethers Lille are once again considered the leading contenders in 4-way Open. Just over a month ago, Aethers Lille were still regarded as the strongest 4-way team in the world, as reflected in the NSL Power Rankings published on September 7th. However, the rankings were adjusted on October 14th, when it became clear that Mathieu Quizy would not occupy the... (more)

News Article Did you know that the 4-way teams live up to high expectations?
posted: Oct 19th, 2026 Although the 8-way competition has yet to deliver the anticipated exciting duel between the reigning U.S. world champions and their challengers from Qatar, that has not stopped the world’s top 4-way teams from launching the expected ten-round thriller. The first two rounds alone have provided plenty of evidence that an intense battle lies ahead over the remaining eight rounds. As usual, the NSL News paid particular attention to the infamous Round 1, which once again caught a leading team off guard. This time, it was France’s national 4-way Open team, Aethers Lille, that struggled with its... (more)

posted: Oct 19th, 2026 The opening ceremony of the FAI Outdoor World Championship 2026 featured festivities similar to those at the previous edition in 2022, when participation was considerably higher in 4-way Open, with 21 teams, while 4-way Women and 8-way had the same numbers as this year, with four and five teams, respectively.

The same is true for the 4-way Women and 8-way Open events, with the Canadian 8-way team and Brazil’s Netunos having arrived as well. The NSL News had previously removed the 4-way VFS leaderboard from its coverage in the run-up to the event after the FAI/ISC did not receive enough official registrations to hold the competition. FAI/ISC rules require... (more)
