posted: Aug 30th, 2004 The NSL office is now fully operational again. Computers are fixed, internet connections and networks are functional - time to catch up. There is a lot of new information that has been waiting for delivery to the valued NSL audience. Unfortunately, the same successful recovery did not happen at the Florida Skydiving Center in Lake Wales where the drama continues. The last NSL News story of August 24 explained the devastating damage Hurricane Charley caused in Lake Wales. The Florida Skydiving League had scheduled a make-up and support meet for last weekend. Even though the Florida Skydiving... (more)
News Article Did you know that the Florida Skydiving League has scheduled a make-up event in Lake Wales for this weekend?
posted: Aug 24th, 2004 It was a bizarre week for the NSL headquarters in DeLand, Florida. Hurricane Charley left a devastating trail on its way across the state, which included the DeLand area. Skydive DeLand was without electricity for days, homes of local skydivers were without water and air condition for several days. However, the NSL office, which is located very close to the airport, did not have any problems at all with Charley. The weather strike came with a delay for the NSL. When most of the victims of the hurricane had recovered, the building with the home of the NSL was struck by lightning last Friday,... (more)
News Article Did you know that Northwest Skydiving League teams saw some snow in Snohomish last weekend?
posted: Aug 19th, 2004 The 3rd Northwest Skydiving League Meet was held on August 14 at Skydive Snohomish. A temporary flight restriction was issued Friday afternoon until Saturday morning due to the President visiting our area. So teams were unable to practice on Friday. We were concerned about whether or not we'd get to start early enough on Saturday to complete the meet. Luckily the restriction was lifted right on time, and the sky was clear. Seven teams showed up for the competition, and Skydive Snohomish brought in Kapowsin's Otter to accommodate the number of teams along with the 56 tandems on their schedule.... (more)
News Article Did you know that a new round of NSL-TV continues the Texas meet and begins with the SSL coverage?
posted: Aug 18th, 2004 Round three of the last Texas Skydiving League meet (C-18-F-14) included the same two blocks that were drawn for the sequence of round one (14-4-18) at last weekend's Southwest Skydiving League competition in Perris.

Arizona Blade introduces round one of the SSL Meet with a score of 14 points, as well. Blade competed with Robert Healy in the Tail position for the first time. The SSL sequence for round one...

News Article Did you know that all Midwest Skydiving League teams improved their meet averages last weekend?
posted: Aug 17th, 2004 In stark contrast to the dangerously violent weather impacting Florida and the East Coast last weekend, the Midwest was blessed with near perfect skydiving weather. And while August meets in the Midwest typically involve enduring some of the most oppressive heat and humidity of the year, we had near record lows and a high only in the low 70’s. Six teams, all of whom were participating in at least their third MWSL meet of the season, took advantage of the spectacular weather at Skydive Chicago in Ottawa, IL. And, since we had two teams in each of three classes, all were able to experience face... (more)

The Southwest Skydiving League was the only NSL league competing that weekend. Additional teams attended a meet of the European Skydiving League in Finland that used the same competition draw. (more)
