posted Sep 12th, 2022 - The NSL News mentioned earlier that the meet management in Belgium had agreed to copy the AAA Class competition draw of the USPA Nationals 2022 for their own national championships. This special and unusual move allowed the two other national teams at Skydive Chicago, Arizona Airspeed and Qatar Tigers, to compare their scores directly with the still reigning NMP PCH HayaBusa 4-way world champions.

Gerrit Tielens, team videographer for the Belgian silver medalists of 2022, Ayro, followed up with the competition videos of NMP PCH HayaBusa, which are now available for reviews. The other five Belgian AAA Class teams can also be found on the combined leaderboard with all 4-way teams who used the same competition draw (USPA Open/USPA Advanced/Belgium AAA). The NSL News will follow up later with more details of the combined leaderboard.

The Belgian 4-way teams in the A Class and the Rookie Class had their own leaderboard with different sequences. The A Class teams completed ten rounds, while U.S. teams in the 4-way Beginner category were done after Round 6. The USPA Nationals do not include a Rookie Class competition.

Ayro and Falco were battling for the 2nd place in Belgium, and Ayro won once again, as they did last time at this year's Tomscat Trophy in June. Winner NMP PCH HayaBusa were obviously mostly interested in the USPA leaderboard.

NMP PCH HayaBusa at the Belgian Outdoor Nationals 2022

---

The NSL News update on September 11th included the scores of all ten rounds in Belgium and the videos of Arizona Airspeed and Qatar Tigers, who completed the meet rounds at Skydive Chicago earlier on Saturday.

The NMP PCH HayaBusa videos are now allowing the three medal contenders for the FAI Outdoor World Meet 2022 to study their opponents' performance status at this point in time, five weeks before Round 1 at the world meet in Eloy.

Scores and videos roughly confirm the unofficial NSL Power Rankings on the top of the expected 4-way Open Class leaderboard that was posted with the update from Germany on September 11th, even though Arizona Airspeed members expect to see all three teams (Belgium - France - Qatar) in contention for the FAI medal sets behind the 1st place.

Airspeed's Niklas Hemlin, Mikhail Markine, Joey Marshall and team videographer Brendan Haddon were available for NSL Live Talk on Monday, after they were done with their 8-way preparations. The complete Airspeed lineup invited Eliana Rodriguez, Ben Liston, James "Bu" Klinge and Steve Lefkowitz for the 8-way competition, and they have all ten meet rounds on the agenda for Tuesday.
