posted Nov 30th, 2010 - The scores of the NSL Championship at SkyQuest 2010 were still not the last ones of the 2010 season. Another indoor competition took place last weekend in the Netherlands, Indoor Skydive Roosendaal was the host of the ISR Grand Prix 2010.

The AAA Class leaderboard shows team names that are very familiar in the Formation Skydiving competition world. Belgium's national 4-way team NMP-PCH Hayabusa won its first meet with the new Point, Dennis Praet.

The lineup for the next two years beat the previous lineup's 30.1 average at the World Challenge 2010 in April with the 32.9 average last weekend. The NSL News will follow up with information directly from the Hayabusa headquarters.

The lineups of the next four teams need some explanations, as well.

Dynamic Fource, the Dutch national team at the World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2010, has actually discontinued with the lineup of the past years. However, the Dutch team attended the indoor meet on home turf and replaced former member Paul Hofstee with coach Gary Smith. Dynamic Fource beat the team's 23.6 average at the World Challenge 2010 significantly with the 28.4 average last weekend.

Gary Smith filled Paul Hofstee's slot who competed with two other teams in Roosendaal. He is used to step in when team members are missing. In April this year, he had competed for ISB Air when Center Inside Pia Weingart was missing. ISB Air with Gary Smith had finished with a 21.9 average at the World Challenge 2010 and posted a 22.7 average with new member Petra van Overveld last weekend.

Petra van Overveld also competed with Skytrax at the indoor competition in Roosendaal. She had just returned from the NSL Championship at SkyQuest 2010 with her international Skytrax lineup and completed three meets within one long week.

Her Skytrax team mate Paul Hofstee was in the same situation. He competed with Skytrax and also with his other international lineup, now called Thunder. Wesley Claessens, Paul Hofstee, Sven Ibens and Jacco van Eerden were also listed as 4XTT when they competed at the Valentine's Meet 2010. Thunder plans to continue with the same lineup next year.

Paul Hofstee's Thunder team mate, former Hayabusa member Sven Ibens, was on double duties, as well. The NSL News explained earlier that Skytrax has trained and competed with coach Solly Williams at the camps and the meet in DeLand. Sven Ibens has been the Center Inside for Skytrax in Europe.

Skytrax, with new ISB Air member Petra van Overveld, was able to outscore the German national 4-way team in the female category by three points. Skytrax, with Thunder members Paul Hofstee and Sven Ibens, could not keep up with Thunder (162 - 185).

Thunder, with former Dynamic Fource member Paul Hofstee and former Hayabusa member Sven Ibens, tried to give the Dutch national 4-way team with Gary Smith a good race and could not keep up, as well (185 - 199). NMP-PCH Hayabusa was completely out of reach for all AAA Class teams, as it had to be expected.

It surely was a very interesting mix of lineups in the AAA Class competition, and the NSL News will follow up with more information very soon.
