The reason for the new attention of the Sun Path Products NSL News is not only the 23-pointer for December's AA Class sequence, which ties the Bad Boys highscore for the same category. The 2014 season was just another remarkable year for the Bisson family, and especially for Yannick Bisson.
The Sun Path Products NSL News brought Yannick Bisson and his 4-way family to the attention of the audience for the first time in April 2013. Their team 4astrophe had won the Canadian Indoor Nationals in the A Class with a 21.0 average after eight rounds.

Father Richard Bisson and daughter Valerie were familiar with the AAA Class dive pool when 4astrophe still competed in the lower categories in 2013 (A) and 2014 (AA). It was no big surprise that Yannick Bisson would not spend too much time in the same categories. In fact, he only waited for the World Challenge 2014 to be over and to begin with mastering the complete dive pool.
The different lineups of the Bisson family team with now 13-year old Yannick (Fuzion member Marie-Eve Dallaire, Evolution members Katie Woods, Martin and Benoit Lemay, Monika Wittmer) posted the first AAA Class scores when the sequences also matched the AA Class criteria (February, March, April).

Block 5 (Opal - Opal) and Block 17 (Danish T - Murphy) are a part of the Indoor Cloud League AAA Class dive pool, which meant that all 4astrophe members had to get familiar with slot switchers and memory, including Yannick Bisson, who had turned 14 in May, just when 4astrophe posted the first scores for the most challenging 4-way sequences.
That was not enough for the youngest AAA Class competitor in the world. Yannick Bisson has been flying the point slot ever since his team joined 4-way competition. 4astrophe's continuity plan has more slot switchers and memory sequences for the front piece. The new ICL video shows how well Yannick Bisson has mastered his point slot this year. He posted three AAA Class highscores with 4astrophe and a few more in the AA Class...
