posted Jul 5th, 2007 -
Rounds eight and nine of the Malevsky Cup 2007 were completed easily in the morning. Airspeed Odyssey continued with a similar performance in Round 8 as it was seen in the previous two rounds. Team Fastrax was able to keep up and tied the 23-pointer as the highscore for the round. Black Cat won by four points over Sky Panthers and made the internal Russian competition more interesting.
Airspeed Odyssey picked up the pace again in rounds nine and ten, which were similar to the Airspeed streak throughout rounds four, five and six. Odyssey won the last two rounds by one point each and secured a 26.0 average after ten rounds. This is the highest meet average in the history of Formation Skydiving competition.
