Did you know that the French top teams posted impressive indoor scores last weekend?
posted: Feb 22nd, 2010 The 4th annual Aerokart Indoor Championship took place last weekend in Paris, France. Many of the French top 4-way and 8-way competitors used the opportunity to either warm up for upcoming competitions or team up with other current or former members of the French national lineups. The team in 1st place, Aerokart PCs, was just introduced by the NSL News with the story on 17 February 2010. Julien Olek, a new member of the French national 8-way lineup, had a very careful 2009 season, as he recovered from a broken leg. He won the 8-way gold medals at the World Cup 2009 in the Czech Republic. However,... (more)

posted: Feb 20th, 2010 The NSL News reported on 4 January 2010, during the coverage of the Dubai Championship, that the German national team in the female 4-way category, Chicas, competed in Dubai with a new team member. Antje Prochnow was already a member of the German national 4-way team in 2005/2006 but missed the World Meet on home turf due to an injury. She came back as a member of the German Open Class team Final Four in 2007 and continued with pick up teams on a lower commitment level. Finally, she became the alternate for the Chicas for the 2009 season without knowing that she would eventually have at least... (more)

Did you know that DeLand PD Blue was going for a "three-peat" in 2000?
posted: Feb 18th, 2010 The NSL News goes back in time once again, this time far back and all the way to the beginnings of the National Skydiving League. Recent discussions with some TV networks made it necessary to show some footage that was already available. This motivated the NSL News to feature a show for the NSL audience that was produced in 2000. It was the third year of the National Skydiving League, which was founded in 1998. Teams in Florida, including the South African national team Equanimity (with Solly Williams and Gary Smith) and Sebastian XL, had started the new league system in the winter of 1996/1997. Texas...

The same three teams competed already at the Dubai Championship in January, where the French team had to replace Mathieu Bernier... (more)

Did you know that Round 10 ate Airspeed for lunch??
posted: Feb 16th, 2010 The next part of the video clips that feature Arizona Airspeed's Round 10 at the Valentine's Meet 2010 begins where the last one had ended. The teams have to ride a trailer truck to get to the boarding area at Skydive Arizona, and the NSL News camera joined the teams on the way. Airspeed added another dirtdive to the final preparations and then waited for the jump plane, together with the Dutch/Belgian team 4XTT. There was another incidence that caused some trouble right before boarding the Twin Otter. Airspeed's Center Inside Andy Delk discovered that he had a serious problem with his bootie.... (more)
