Did you know that Team Fastrax was the 3rd 20+ team?
posted: Sep 30th, 2009 The NSL News presented an eye candy to the on-line audience with the story on 17 September 2009. The story included the videos of Arizona Airspeed at the Paraclete Money Meet 2007, France Aerodyne Cypres Maubeuge at the FAI World Cup 2009 and DeLand Majik at the Malevsky Cup 2002. All videos were related to the "20-points-and-up-per-round" topic of the story. One of the three tops of the leaderboards, with competition draw and scores, was mistaken though. The graphic on top of Airspeed's videos at the Paraclete Money Meet 2007 was actually showing the scores of the Malevsky Cup 2007. This... (more)

Did you know that a new dive pool proposal comes from the Netherlands?
posted: Sep 29th, 2009 Many great ideas come up in situations that are not set up for that purpose. The Dutch 4-way team that represented the Netherlands at the FAI World Cup 2009, NRG, is another example for creativity in an unusual situation. Rogier Carper (Tail), Jaap Keuter (Center Inside), Gerhard Schut (Center Outside), Leander van Schriek (Point), with Milo Pieters on camera, had a very successful 2009 season and finished with a 14.6 average after nine rounds in the Czech Republic.

Did you know that 4-way world champion Natasha Montgomery is doing well after a crash with a helicopter?
posted: Sep 28th, 2009 Good and bad news at the same time reached the NSL News last week. A helicopter crash near San Diego in California was related to Natasha Montgomery, 4-way world champion with DeLand Fire in Germany 2006. The bad news was the fact that Natasha Montgomery was indeed the pilot of her own Robinson R-44 chopper, which crashed in the rugged mountain area. The good news is that all people on board survived and were treated only for injuries. Airspeed member Craig Girard said that Natasha Montgomery had already responded to text messages when he spoke with the NSL News last week. (more)

Did you know that two Mass Defiance members try to defend their own record and offer free coaching?
posted: Sep 26th, 2009 The AAA Class "amateur championship" at the USPA Nationals 2009 has become a new twist, which caused the NSL News to add a team to the specific poll for this unofficial meet within the meet. SDC Rhythm XP and the Midwest team's pursuit of Mass Defiance's 19.3 "amateur scoring record" caught the NSL News attention several times this year. Sebastian Tempest joined Rhythm on this trip after a great performance at the September meet of the Florida Skydiving League. Spaceland Blue's all-female lineup has been another NSL News candidate for breaking the Mass Defiance record. A new lineup has to... (more)

Did you know that SkyQuest 2009 is a dress rehearsal for the World Team of 2010?
posted: Sep 25th, 2009 The end of the 2009 season is coming closer quickly. The USPA Nationals 2009 in three weeks includes the major Formation Skydiving competition in the USA this year. SkyQuest 2009, including the NSL Championship 2009, concludes the NSL 2009 season in November. BJ Worth's Kaleidoscope Dives have become the largest ingredient of the annual SkyQuest event. The success of the project now has motivated BJ Worth to go even bigger and invite a second group of Kaleidoscope Divers to SkyQuest 2009. This year's event will see a friendly big-way competition. The Kaleidoscope Dives started in 2001 as... (more)

Did you know that the Airspeed and Paraclete 8-way lineups are shaken up?
posted: Sep 24th, 2009 The NSL News story on 23 September 2009 included the meet videos of Perris Fury at the September meet of the Texas Skydiving League and an update of the Spaceland Force XP situation little over three weeks before the start of the USPA Nationals 2009. The story mentioned that the Force is currently dealing with Gary Beyer's shoulder injury, which puts a questionmark behind his availability at the championships. Brian Johnson is currently training with the team as a substitute and may have to step in for the competition if Gary Beyer doesn't recover early enough. The Force members are trying... (more)
