Did you know that Russia may have a new world class 8-way team?
posted: Nov 30th, 2009 Exciting news came from Russia last week. The NSL News had raised the question already earlier this year whether Russia would recruit a strong 8-way lineup for the 2010 season. Russian teams have focused on the 4-way event in the past years and ever since Evolution Pro disbanded at the end of the 2006 season. There was not even a Russian 8-way team attending the World Championship of Formation Skydiving 2008 in France. The 8-way team at the FAI World Cup 2009 was a pickup team for the event, as the NSL News reported from the Czech Republic. (more)

Did you know that the Eagle Team is now on NSL-TV?
posted: Nov 30th, 2009 The next set of SkyQuest 2009 videos now shows the first three jumps of the Eagle Team on NSL-TV. The NSL News mentioned already in earlier stories that the Falcon Team had the much better start and that the Eagle Team needed some clean up work on the first day. The videos show what was behind this commentary. Once again, the new Eagle Team videos show the three jumps on Thursday from all availabe camera angles. (more)

Did you know that the first half went to Perris Jimani?
posted: Nov 28th, 2009 The SkyQuest 2009 coverage continues with the AA Class competition of the NSL Championship 2009. The Rookie Class competition between Team DiZaster and Relativity was already exciting enough. However, Perris Jimani and Teiwaz Eagle gave each other an even more exciting race. The two AA Class teams were separated by only two points after ten rounds. It was coincidence that Teiwaz had once again two lineups at this year's SkyQuest event, and that the lineups of the two teams made one fit for the AAA Class competition and the other one for the AA Class category. It turned out that the Teiwaz Eagle... (more)

Did you know that more 100-way footage has been uploaded?
posted: Nov 27th, 2009 The NSL News will still be following up on SkyQuest 2009 for a while. Especially the big-way fans in Formation Skydiving will be interested in watching the jumps of the Falcon and Eagle 100-way teams. Processing the video footage of all the jumps is a time consuming task and will be done step by step. Some earlier video clips of the event included already a few jumps of the Falcon Team, embedded in videos with other scenes on the ground. The newly uploaded videos of the Kaleidoscope Dives now provide the complete footage of each jump. There were always at least two or three freefall videographers... (more)

Did you know that Paraclete XP has a new 4-way lineup for 2010?
posted: Nov 26th, 2009 Kirk Verner, one of the original members of the legendary Airspeed 4-way team (Jack Jefferies, Dan BC, Mark Kirkby), did not compete at the 2009 USPA National Skydiving Championships, as the NSL News mentioned quite a few times during the live coverage from Texas. He has been dealing with a shoulder injury for a while and finally decided to get it fixed with a surgery before the USPA Nationals. He did not recover early enough to come back in time for the 8-way competition, which his team, Paraclete XP, was planning to win. Brian Johnson and Shannon Pilcher stepped in for the injured Kirk...

Did you know that Hot Flash made all meets after a shaky 2009 season?
posted: Nov 25th, 2009 The first part of the exciting Rookie Class competition for the gold medals at the NSL Championship 2009 was covered on 23 November 2009. The story mentioned that Relativity from Colorado and Team DiZaster from Florida came to compete for the Aerodyne Rookie Class Cup and that Hot Flash was out for fun and competition experience. The Rookie Class team from Texas has a very interesting short history that began in April this year. Former Hot Flash Point and current Tail Marty "Ladybug" Mahoney explained for the NSL News in a funny way how herself, Lori Mitchell, Johnny Tubbs and Grady Ferguson... (more)
