Did you know that Satori is eager to post more world class scores this weekend? posted: Sep 8th, 2009 The internal competition of the five 4-way teams from the United Kingdom at the FAI World Cup 2009 ended with a clear victory of Sonicnutz.
It was a little bit complicated to determine the fair rankings of all teams since the all-female lineup, Kaizen, competed in the female 4-way category and completed all ten rounds. There was no cut for semifinals and finals in this event due to the low number of teams.
Sonicnutz was the only British 4-way team in the Open Class that made the first cut into the semifinals and was finished after nine rounds. Phobia, Fusion and Escondido completed eight... (more)
Did you know that the French 8-way team had a brillant Fun Flag idea? posted: Sep 3rd, 2009 The NSL News will get to yesterday's final competition action later.
First, it is time for the latest Fun Flag update before the new day begins. It was a wild day for the Flag, and it suffered again, eventually.
There was a constant battle for the Flag, all day long, and it changed possession a few times. The French and UK delegations were the two parties mainly involved. They had sophisticated strategies, including recruited spies, defenders, faking activities and spreading rumors.
Result is the fact that the location of the Flag is currently unknown. (more)

The scores for Round 8 in 8-way did not change much at all. All five teams are now so far away from each other that the leaderboard will most likely be the same after ten rounds. Russia's Crystal Contour lineup distanced itself by seven points from Spain, and the combination of the two Russian 4-way teams is getting stronger round by round.
There seems to be a chance that this lineup might continue in 2010. Russia has not had a world class 8-way team ever since Evolution Pro discontinued after the World Meet 2004 in Croatia. Russia won... (more)
Did you know that the French national teams control all three events at the World Cup? posted: Sep 2nd, 2009 The 8-way teams completed Round 6 today and have left the drop zone. Germany and France have nothing to fight for, but there is a serious battle going on for the bronze medals.
Spain and Russia are going back and forth round by round, both teams are currently tied in 3rd place.
Round 4 is complete in both 4-way events. Aerokart Deep Blue Maubeuge continues to post impressive results. The 20-average level is very much in reach and probably the main goal for the French team. Chicas and Incognito Leutkirch continue with their battle for the silver medals. Incognito lost a point in each of the... (more)
Did you know that the French competitors will have a very busy afternoon? posted: Sep 2nd, 2009 A small weather system put the teams on a weather hold for a little while. The 8-way teams suffered the interruption, while the 4-way teams came back to the drop zone after a morning off. This causes more work now for Bryan Burke who tries to keep everything on course.
All events will be active this afternoon, as the 8-way teams and the artistic competitors have not completed yet what was planned for them. Five 8-way rounds are in the bag, and Round 6 will begin shortly. The French 4-way and 8-way competitors will have a very busy afternoon, and Bryan Burke has to coordinate their agenda.

Did you know that new videos show a flawless French 4-way team? posted: Sep 2nd, 2009 Wednesday morning begins with a little treat for the NSL News audience. CamScore provided some footage, which made it much easier to put together a few jumps for reviews. The first clip features the 4-way teams on the top of the leaderboard, including all three rounds of the French national team, Aerodyne Cypres Maubeuge.
It really is a treat, as these three rounds are almost flawless and present a French 4-way team that is five and more points ahead of the best teams in the world, except the US teams. The Airspeed world champions will probably take a very good look at these videos.
The same... (more)
