posted: Feb 19th, 2006 The 4-way competition at the 2006 season opener in Eloy began with a warm-up jump for all teams.

The following four rounds slowed down the pace before round six helped the average to go up again. The three top teams, Airspeed Odyssey, Airspeed Velocity and Team Fastrax, finished the meet at about the scoring level where they expected themselves after these six rounds. The Airspeed line-ups had not trained much 4-way due to the 8-way commitment this year. (more)

posted: Feb 18th, 2006 The NSL News was busy all day long just updating the website with scores and meet videos for NSL-TV. The NSL News will follow up with stories and interviews later. The 4-way competition was obviously fun to watch, and the teams took advantage of the two faster rounds to finish with great meet averages. The three top teams launched the 2005 season already with scores above the 20.0 average. Airspeed Velocity with the two new members Eric Gin and Thomas Hughes was probably the biggest surprise of the meet. The 21.0 average was the team's highest meet average after a total of four training jumps.... (more)
