Did you know that Jeana Billings, Brenn Richards and Kirk Verner player-coached Paraclete XP's ICL lineups in November? posted: Dec 4th, 2022 It did not take very long until the NSL News turned once again to Paraclete XP, this time with a topic related to the Indoor Cloud League. The previous update on December 2nd had covered the changes in the XP8 lineup.
Both topics are naturally connected, as XP8 member Jeana Billings has been managing and organizing Paraclete XP's Indoor Cloud League team, together with her XPG4 team mate Brenn Richards. Their XPG4 team mates Michelle Karamon and Anna Brunner have also been helping at the ICL events as player-coaches.
Jeana Billings continues with XP8 and XPG4 both, while running the Indoor... (more)
Did you know that all five Indoor Cloud League September teams were back in October? posted: Nov 20th, 2022 The NSL News reported on October 31st that the September leaderboard of the Indoor Cloud League featured all five currently participating teams with scores and videos for the same month. It was the first sign of recovery from the ongoing crises that have made indoor and outdoor training and competition very difficult.
It was apparently not just a hay fire, as the same five Indoor Cloud League teams were back with scores and videos in October, as well. The previous update with the good news was related to Kyle Hermberg's ICL team at iFLY Dallas, and it happens once again that he also completes... (more)
Did you know that five Air Force teams took on the Indoor Cloud League October sequences for iFLY Colorado Springs? posted: Nov 13th, 2022 The cooperation between the founders of the Indoor Cloud League team at iFLY Colorado Springs, Emily Bombardi and Eric Daniel, and the 4-way teams of the Air Force Academy in Colorado began in September this year, three months after the first Indoor Cloud League event at the second iFLY windtunnel in Colorado, as the NSL News reported on October 9th.

Did you know that Paraclete XP's Indoor Cloud League team had new record participation in October? posted: Nov 8th, 2022 Paraclete XP's Indoor Cloud League event in June generated the largest participation so far. Eight different lineups had competed for the six highest scores for the June sequences. However, two of the eight lineups were teams in training for the USPA Nationals at that time, XPG4 and Air Raid XP.
The four XPG4 player-coaches (Jeana Billings, Michelle Karamon, Brenn Richards, Anna Brunner) then joined forces with the other 18 participants for the additional six lineups.

Did you know that the ICL Midwest team had an interesting lineup in October? posted: Nov 5th, 2022 Things are in motion in the Midwest Skydiving League region. SDC Rhythm XP members Keith Conner and Chris Webb recently announced the MWSL 2023 schedule, which will once again include 4-way meets at the three major 4-way locations in the Midwest.
Skydive Midwest is one of the MWSL hosts, and SDMW NEXT has been one of the rising 4-way team projects in the United States. NEXT team members also launched the ICL Midwest team for the Indoor Cloud League and have become one of the strong players generating new 4-way participants regularly.

Did you know that iFLY Dallas passed the total of 1000 ICL points in September? posted: Oct 31st, 2022 The FAI World Championship of Formation Skydiving is by far the most relevant competition for any 4-way and 8-way teams, competitors and the audience. It is still only one team in each event that represents a country and cannot be at any other location at the time of the world meet.
4-way and 8-way training and other activities come almost to a standstill across the Formation Skydiving world at the time of the world meet. Teams, competitors and audience pay at least a lot of attention to the event while they continue to do what they do.
The Indoor Cloud League events are a part of the 4-way... (more)
