However, the growing participation, with a new record number for January 2016, has changed this situation.
Three other ICL teams have been on the February leaderboard before the FSL team added scores and videos for the six categories after last night's event at iFLY Orlando.
It is also unusual for the FSL team to be placed not even near the top of the leaderboard. The Czech Sportflight team at the Hurricane Factory in Prague would be no surprise ahead of iFLY Orlando, although Jan Klapka's group has not even posted any February data yet. The two teams on the top of the current ICL leaderboard are from iFLY SF Bay and iFLY Houston.

Sebastian Jimenez and James Hall switched their slots at numerous previous events for the first time last night.
James Hall was the Tail for DeLand Momentum last year and moves to Point with his new 2016 lineup (Gilles Dutrisac, Andrea Greening, Trevor Cedar).
Sebastian Jimenez volunteered his former Point slot and moved to Tail for the first time.
This different kind of slot switcher did not interfere much with the performance level at all, as the current highscores indicate.

This lineup could not improve the AA Class score; however, they posted the 16-pointer for the A Class sequence, which tied the February highscore in this category.
There was also internal Florida competition in the RR Class. James Kirt, Cynthia Stroup, Ed Stroup and Kurt Gaebel were able to outscore (17 - 15) Bob Byrne's lineup with team members of the ZeuS 4-way project at Skydive City, and they added the 14-pointer for the R Class sequence.
Bob Byrne, Lee Perera, Amer Kassas and Bob Palatka put a 12-pointer for the RRR Class sequence on the February leaderboard.
