News Article Did you know that Fast Forward from the Northern Plains moves up the leaderboard?
posted: Oct 22nd, 2006 FiaZco broke the tie with Mass Defiance in round four. FiaZco consists of four experienced and well skilled competitors, including last year's Fastrax member Billy Andrews. Steve Johnson, Jim Klinge and Rodney Cruce complete the line-up, Tony Hathaway films the team. Mass Defiance lost two points in this race within the competition. One of these two points got lost in the judging room due to an infringement. Mass Defiance is still one point ahead of Elsinore Gravity, which will probably not last for very long since Gravity will come back up. Dallas Thunder is next on the heels of the New England...

News Article Did you know that Elsinore Gravity faced disaster in round four?
posted: Oct 22nd, 2006 Things are moving fastly in Eloy this morning, in freefall and on the ground. Round two is already complete, and the ranking order has not changed much. DeLand Groove has a good time, as it was planned, and tied the highscore for the round with Russia's Black Cat. Fastrax keeps in touch with the leaders and increases the distance to the Airspeed line-ups. Perris Fury and Elsinore Gravity perform as strongly as it was expected, as well. Both teams are closer to both Airspeed line-ups and the Golden Knights than these veterans might like it (34 - 33 - 32 - 32). This might become a 5-team race... (more)
News Article Did you know that Synchronicity and Elsinore Select compete directly with each other this time?
posted: Oct 22nd, 2006 The first round is already complete, and the AAA Class field has already larger cracks than expected so early. DeLand Groove, with the three former DeLand Fire members (Shannon Pilcher, Ian Bobo, Gary Smith) and Solly Williams in the point position and hardly any training together, started into the competition with a big bang and the first highscore (20). Both Airspeed line-ups (17 - 15) did not even get close, and Black Cat did not have a very exciting start, as well. Fastrax had the best start into a top competition in the team career and is only one point behind the leader. The Golden Knights... (more)
News Article Did you know that Black Cat has an open account with Airspeed Odyssey?
posted: Oct 22nd, 2006 The end of the registration process on Saturday did not bring any surprises. The teams signed up for the competition classes, as it was mostly expected, especially in the AAA/Advanced Class and in the AA/Intermediate Class. There are several interesting aspects though. The team names for the AAA/Open Class competition include Black Cat. Yes, it is the Russian 4-way team that did not make it to the World Meet 2006 in Germany this year. Sky Panthers Barkli had won the Russian Nationals 2006 and represented Russia in Germany. (more)
News Article Did you know that the USPA Competition Manual plays a role in the registration process?
posted: Oct 21st, 2006 The registration process is on the way in Eloy, and the NSL News goes back to the introduction of teams. The NSL News story on October 19 explained where Elsinore Gravity and Perris Fury might be able to position themselves in the AAA/Open Class competition of the USPA Nationals 2006. Other Open Class teams and their situations were also mentioned in the same story. The NSL News on October 20 added that the complete field of teams in USPA's two other competition classes (AAA/Advanced Class and AA/Intermediate Class) will only be known tonight and then show which teams might be the top contenders....

News Article Did you know that teams from the east coast shared tunnel time and plane loads yesterday in Eloy?
posted: Oct 21st, 2006 The first update from the USPA Nationals 2006 came from Eloy yesterday, and it was provided by Cherie and Karl Schuch who have been organizing the MidAtlantic Skydiving League activities for several years. They recently train and compete with Cross Keys O2 Project and had their eyes on the teams from their region. Cherie and Karl Schuch made the long trip from New Jersey to Arizona a fun adventure: "Karl & I are traveling around the US starting last week. We are on our way to AZ. Sitting in Oklahoma City right now." They made it safely to the competition site in Eloy and observed the training... (more)
