posted May 3rd, 2016 - The previous highscore for the Indoor Cloud League AAA Class sequence in April was wiped out in the last minute. iFLY Orlando's AAA Class lineup had scored a 20-pointer in the 12-foot flying chamber last week, which tied the highscore that the Bad Boys posted earlier last month in the 14-foot chamber of the Hurricane Factory.

Bodyflight Bedford, host of the World Challenge, now had the very last word with a world class 27-pointer. Bodyflight Bedford is the home turf for Joey Jones and his team 4mula, who took on the AAA Class sequence on Saturday, the last day of the month.

It was the first Indoor Cloud League score coming from Great Britain, and it was an impressive one. It was also 4mula's first public score with the new 2016 lineup.

4mula had placed 2nd at the UK Nationals 2015 with an 18.3 average, and the same lineup followed up for Great Britain at the FAI World Cup 2015 in 5th place with a 17.5 average. UK's 4-way champion Satori XL did not compete at the World Cup and made plans for the 2016 world meet season with the new lineup.

4mula's Renata Herenova could not continue with the team this year, when she moved back to the Czech Republic after the end of the 2015 season.

Joey Jones, Kate Lindsley and David Rodgers had to recruit a new team member and re-activated Sian Stokes, who has been training and competing on the British 4-way top level for several years. The Sun Path Products NSL News update on October 8th, 2014, featured her competing on the highest level with Full Stop XL.

Sian Stokes is not new to 4mula, as she was a team member at the UK Nationals 2014. In fact, the 2016 lineup is a reunion of exactly the same one in 2014.

4mula missed this year's World Challenge as the season opener once again for a similar reason as in 2015. In fact, 4mula has never attended yet the biggest 4-way event in the world on their home turf.

Kate Lindsley and Sian Stokes both competed with Volition in 4-way Women, and the effort was rewarded. Volition won the official British qualification as the

national team for the FAI Indoor World Cup 2016 and will travel to Poland later this year, together with coach Joey Jones, while NFTO will compete for Great Britain in 4-way Women at the Mondial 2016, together with Satori XL in the 4-way Open Class.

4mula will prepare for the UK Nationals 2016, and Sian Stokes will be done with Volition and ready for only 4mula after the FAI indoor competition, probably until the next World Challenge comes up...
