Did you know that NMP-PCH Hayabusa is up by two after two?
posted: Apr 2nd, 2011 None of the Top 6 teams had a point deduction in Round 1, and ISB Air was clean, as well. Aerodyne Deep Blue Defenders (1) and Russia's new top team SportLotto (2), with two former Kaktus Hunters, lost points while posting their 21-pointers. NMP-PCH Hayabusa has outscored Arizona Airspeed two times in the first two rounds and has the lead. The UK/US combination of XL keeps up with the top contenders, which is not a big surprise. It looks like the Top 3 teams in the world will have company by a 4th team at the World Challenge 2011. A tough battle for the 5th place is in full swing. Russia's... (more)

Did you know that NSL-TV presents videos of Round 1?
posted: Apr 2nd, 2011 Most of the scores for Round 1 are posted, and the teams get ready for Round 2. ISB Air with Gary Smith kept up with the French Aerodyne Deep Blue Defenders, which is a surprise, even though the German team is expected to be a top contender in the female 4-way category. Team Bodyflight with player coaches Amanda Kemp and Sarah Cannon are not in contention for the top positions at the moment. Arizona Airspeed may have to work much harder at the indoor competition compared to the Valentine's Meet 2011 and the Shamrock Showdown 2011. Aerodyne Aerokart Maubeuge and NMP-PCH Hayabusa both seem to... (more)

Did you know that Pete Allum and Thomas Hughes discussed the draw before Round 1?
posted: Apr 2nd, 2011 Round 1 is in progress, and the first videos of competition rounds will be uploaded soon. Before the competition began, the NSL-TV camera captured the opening ceremony where host Paul Mayer welcomed the teams and competitors. Then the competition draw was handed out, and Round 3 brings the sequence of only random formations. Other than that, the draw seems to be an average one, maybe even more on the slower side. Thomas Hughes compared it to the Shamrock Showdown 2011 during a brief NSL Talk with Pete Allum before Round 1. The teams went straight to work after receiving the competition draw,... (more)

Did you know that NSL-TV features live action of yesterday's official training session?
posted: Apr 2nd, 2011 Well, the dive pool changes demonstrated by XL yesterday were not accepted for the World Challenge 2011 and have little chances to make the official way into the IPC rules. Andy Delk and Josh Hall are both in good health and ready for the meet, even though they really wiped out quite well in the FlowHouse. The Fools Day is over, and things get more serious on April 2nd. NSL-TV put together another clip after the XL demonstration and before the teams were done with the official practice sessions. It begins with a few scenes in the prep area where the teams get ready for their flying sessions.... (more)

Did you know that XL presented the latest IPC dive pool changes during the official training?
posted: Apr 1st, 2011 It all began at the FlowHouse where Arizona Airspeed and XL members enjoyed their Friday afternoon. Airspeed was done with the training, while XL would go back into the flying chamber for the official training session. XL had completed approx. 1.5 hours of training in the past few days and used every minute to get ready for the World Challenge 2011. It became suspicious when Steve Hamilton and Pete Allum were quite secretive when the NSL-TV camera approached them right before the last training session. They had a plan for something that nobody knew about. Only the XL members apparently knew... (more)

Did you know that Arizona Airspeed trained fast sequences today?
posted: Apr 1st, 2011 Arizona Airspeed had a training session late on Friday morning before the World Challenge 2011. It was not the official training session, which begins later this afternoon. That's the time when Bodyflight Bedford sets the specific air speed for each team. Airspeed shared the tunnel time with Perris Jimani, the third US team in the AA Class competition of the World Challenge 2011. SDC Rhythm XP is the second AAA Class team that represents the US 4-way competition. The video clip includes a freeflying performance by Thomas Hughes, the "King of the Tunnel" when he was working at SkyVenture Orlando... (more)
