The story on June 19th introduced the teams on the first level of the new "4-way Indoor Elite Club", with only 23-pointers and higher at a 10-round indoor competition. Pas Op, Thunder ISR and Gavroches were the first three teams with club memberships.
The three 23-pointer teams completed their special performances at the same location, Aerokart in Paris, France, in 2011, 2012 and 2015. SDC Rhythm XP and Evolution were actually at the same place at the same time when they scored only 24-pointers and higher, at iFLY Singapore in December 2012.
It was officially an 11-round competition, and SDC Rhythm XP missed the 25-pointer level by one round. The unique Rhythm lineup for this event, with former Perris Fury member Uli Stuwe in the Tail slot, had only one 24-pointer in Round 5 (K,16,18).
Chris Farina and Thiago Gomes left Rhythm at the end of the 2012 season and signed up for the new Arizona Airspeed lineup. JaNette and Steve Lefkowitz continued with Christy Frikken and Mikhail Markine after the indoor competition in Singapore.

Michel Lemay then traveled back to Canada, while the three brothers competed with new Point Katie Woods in Singapore just a week later.
It was obviously a good start for Katie Woods and the new lineup. The 29.6 average in Singapore is still standing as the team's record number for a 10-round indoor competition.
The same lineup followed up with the entry into the "4-way Outdoor Elite Club", as the Sun Path Products NSL News reported on June 14th.
The Evolution numbers at the FAI World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2014 are still the last and most recent 20-pointer performance of any team in the world at a 10-round outdoor meet...
