posted Aug 15th, 2025 - Two teams from the AerOhio Skydiving center posted scores for the Great Lakes Skydiving League on the same leaderboards of the Southern California Skydiving League. AerOdynamics (AA) and AerOjam (A) both competed earlier this year, and AerOjam matched their June average precisely.

AerOdynamics are in their second year with a change in the lineup. Natalie Gonzales, Dan Barney and Rachel Bartram, with inside center Erika Woodrum and Brian Raeder on camera, placed 8th in the AA/Intermediate Class at the USPA Nationals 2024 with an 8.8 average.

Kelsea Kiene became the new inside center this year, and AerOdynamics launched the 2025 season with 9.8 in June. They followed up with 8.5 for a technically more challenging 6-round competition.

Ten of the 16 AA Class blocks were in the six sequences, combined with six random formations. The June competition had six blocks and nine random formations. However, both GLSL teams from AerOhio took the top positions on their respective leaderboards

Perris 4ever - Perris Prism at the August meet of the Southern California Skydiving League

---

No team from the Great Lakes posted AAA Class scores, and the Southern California Skydivine League had their own exciting competition, as the NSL News reported on August 9th. The meet videos feature all teams, including Perris 4ever, who will compete for the U.S. delegation in 4-way Women soon at the FAI Outdoor World Cup 2025.

The five AAA Class sequences at Skydive Elsinore were not any easier and even more technically challenging. The eleven blocks included two slot-switchers and combined with six random formations. It was the first competition for the new lineup who will compete at Skydive Teuge. Mariushka Lovera has replaced Celine Pelletier who competed with Perris 4ever at the USPA Nationals 2024 and qualified for this year's outdoor world cup.

The competition videos also feature the Perris Stunt Team, where Airspeed legend Dan "BC" Brodsky-Chenfield was filling the outside center slot. He was Christy Frikken's skydiving mentor, who eventually became a 4-way silver medalist at the world championship in 2021 herself with SDC Rhythm XP. Christy Frikken has been sharing her experiences as a coach and has been managing the Southern California Skydiving League. Skydive Perris is still their home, and they registered several teams to make the short trip from Perris to Elsinore.
