Did you know that bad weather shortened the FSL meet at Skydive City? posted: Jun 27th, 2008 Last weekend's leaderboard shows a unique situation in the AAA Class field. Team Teiwaz appears two times on the same leaderboard, and coincidence places both lineups right next to each other.
This is not a mistake. Teiwaz actually competed with two different lineups at two different locations. Jim "Bu" Klinge, Rodney Cruce, Sean Sweeney and Kurt Gaebel competed at the Paraclete XP Money Meet 2008 in Raeford, while Derrick Thomas, Bruce Robertson, Bob Byrne and Dave Ruffell attended the June meet of the Florida Skydiving League at Skydive City.
