Did you know that size matters for indoor 8-way training and competition? posted: Jun 10th, 2020 Body sizes are a critical component of indoor 8-way training and competition. A 16-foot flying chamber can accommodate 8-way teams, as Paraclete XP and Weembi Lille have shown with their regular 8-way events.
However, the 8-way indoor dive pool is still not identical with the outdoor blocks and random formations. The indoor modifications are supposed to allow the 8-way teams to use the same basic dive pool.

Did you know that female 4-way competitors have a vast majority in the Czech Republic? posted: Feb 19th, 2020 As usual, things are moving quickly in the Czech Republic.

The lineup was different at each of the team's last three meets. It was in November last year when Sabina Cioleková, Karolina Henkova, Viktorie Nováková and Adela Vesela competed together the previous time.
