Did you know that the Italian 8-way team Ex3mo posted new national record scores last week?
posted: Sep 6th, 2006 The Italian Nationals 2006 did not only feature Sinapsi PD. The most successful Italian 4-way team of the past years received the most attention when the NSL News reported of the event last week. However, Italy has several other good 4-way teams, and the general scoring level of all AAA Class teams was quite impressive. Only one of the ten AAA Class teams did not get to the 2-digit meet average. The Spin Team in second place finished with a 16.6 average, while the bronze medals went to Felix Poseidon with a 15.6 average. Additional 14 teams competed in Italy's Intermediate Class, which is...

posted: Aug 31st, 2006 The valued NSL News audience has probably already detected that last weekend's scores on the front page were replaced step by step with new results. The 4-way competition of the Italian Nationals 2006 was completed today, and Italy's IPC Delegate Sara Sacchet directed the NSL attention to the latest event in Europe. The NSL News story on August 29 mentioned that the 2006 season is far from over. Only the national teams are actually past their main event after the conclusion of the World Meet 2006 in Germany.

Did you know that Elsinore Vengeance competed with an alternate on August 19?
posted: Aug 30th, 2006 The NSL News catches up with a competition that took place while the NSL office was still on the road. The scores and meet information from the last meet of the Northwest Skydiving League are now available, and NWSL Director Harry Waller wrote the outline of the meet story. Meet #2 of the Northwest Skydiving League started early on August 19 and proceeded without a hitch. However, it proved challenging for Elsinore Vengeance. Training was going well this year until the team's Point, Lisa Albrecht, broke her leg three weeks ago on the 3rd jump of a 2-day training camp in Oregon. (more)
