Did you know that several Shamrock teams have re-match opportunities at the World Challenge? posted: Mar 25th, 2011 The videos of Round 2 at the Shamrock Showdown 2011 have been uploaded and feature once again all teams.

Fast Air finished in 17th place, however, the score for Round 2 was good enough for the 12th place of all teams. Fast Air was now ahead of Bodyflight Atlas and SDC Furies at this point in time.

Did you know that the beer selection in the FlowHouse Bar & Grill should include Boddingtons? posted: Mar 23rd, 2011 The anticipation of the upcoming World Challenge 2011 and a recent message by Bodyflight Bedford's owner and meet director Paul Mayer to the registered teams brought the NSL News back to the 2010 event.
Paul Mayer's latest innovation by then, the FlowHouse, was ready for a demo, even though the facilities were not ready for the public at this point in time. That was not the case for the luxurious spa and health suite, as the live NSL Talk with Paul Mayer and XL members in the warm water of the pool shows in the video clip of 2010.
Paul Mayer explained in another interview that the FlowHouse... (more)

Did you know that Round 8 was the only one that Airspeed gave away? posted: Mar 20th, 2011 The Shamrock Showdown 2011 is over, and not much changed on the second day of the competition. Arizona Airspeed is the best team in the world at the beginning of the 2011 season. Aerodyne Aerokart Maubeuge and NMP-PCH Hayabusa have some work to do if they want to catch up with the US team.
Perfect weather and flawless cooperation between CamScore, judges and manifest allowed the meet management to follow through on the number one goal for the meet. Each team knew at any time throughout the entire competition what the scores were before the next round came up.
The teams and observers appreciated... (more)
