The main competition at Skydive City took place in the A Class where three teams attended the last meet of the regular 2012 season. The Super Sequence also trickled down into the A Class with the first three Random Formations (J-F-E) of the sequence and offered a great scoring opportunity.
However, the A Class teams get their Super Sequences on a regular basis, and the same sequence also applied for the Rookie Class teams last weekend.

It was the 4th time that Higgs Boson and Zunday competed with each other this year. Both teams progressed in different ways after launching the 2012 season with almost exactly the same scoring difference. Zunday consistently increased the averages meet by meet and had actually caught up with Higgs Boson in June.
Bob Byrne's player coach team then was so fortunate to have former FSC Wind Damaged member Joel Kmetz fill last weekend's open Center Inside slot, which helped to shoot Higgs Boson up to almost the 10-average level. Zunday improved the performance and scoring level once again but suffered a few bad exits and could eventually not keep up.
Gilles Dutrisac was also a Wind Damaged member in 2007 and 2008 before he joined Sebastian Tempest to launch and advance his AAA Class career. He joined Teiwaz last weekend for the other unexpected FSC Wind Damaged reunion with Bob Byrne. Gilles Dutrisac has trained with John Hart's Start Skydiving lineup this year.
The FSL teams are not done yet, as they will defend their home turf once again at the NSL Championship of SkyQuest 2012 in November. The indoor showdown with the Northwest Skydiving League and iFLY Seattle also continues for the remainder of the year, and the iFLY competition tour stop in Orlando is next in October.
