Did you know that the scoresheets offer interesting additional information?
posted: Aug 8th, 2006 The current weather hold at the FAI World Meet 2006 in Germany allows the NSL News to catch up with yesterday's events. The first round of the 4-way competition was completed in both events, and two teams of the female category already did their second jump. France and Great Britain's team Airkix compete in their own league, which is at least the impression after round one. The Russian Ladybirds still got a 12-pointer on the scoreboard after the big mistake in the meet opener, which tied the score for the 3rd place. Round two will probably show whether the Russian team will have to fight for... (more)

posted: Aug 8th, 2006 The FAI World Meet 2006 is once again on a weather hold. The NSL News uses the break for an update with scores and a meet story of the last Carolina Skydiving League competition. The 4th CASL meet of 2006 was held at Raeford Aviation on Saturday, July 29.

Did you know that the teams are back in the air?
posted: Aug 7th, 2006 The weather has improved, and the teams are back in the air. First of all, the first round in 8-way needed to be completed. Only Arizona Airspeed and the South African 8-way team had missed round one and boarded the Twinotter for the last 8-way activity today. The 8-way teams were done for the day after round one. South Africa posted an 8-pointer and is one point ahead of Belgium in 8th place. Arizona Airspeed had a strong first page and got caught with an incomplete Frisbee at the beginning of the second page. As France did a few hours earlier, Airspeed completed 19 points in time and received... (more)

Did you know that Airspeed veteran Craig Girard commented the 8-way situation before his team's first jump?
posted: Aug 7th, 2006 Monday morning offered a nice surprise for participants and event management. Despite a weather forecast that was not very promising the sun was shining, and the skies were clear enough. Load one was scheduled for 7:00 am, and it took off at the planned time. The planes were loaded with teams of the 8-way competition, 4-way Women and the artistic events. NSL-TV is ready to capture the first jumps and will also have a nice surprise for the NSL audience. All meet jumps will be linked directly to the scores on a high quality level. The new partnership with RealXstream.com made this possible. The... (more)

Did you know that a new NSL-TV video presents the competition draw and more?
posted: Aug 6th, 2006 It has been quiet for a little while, and there have been good reasons for a short break of the updates and not so good ones. First of all, to begin with the bad news, it is currently raining in Gera. The NSL News will get to the good news later today. The rain began already on Saturday, which was supposed to be a training day. The teams and the management succeeded in getting planes in the air as long as the weather allowed any jumping. The judges had the opportunity to test the Omniskore judging system, while the German technicians installed the home made DZ-TV. Several training jumps were... (more)

Did you know that chances for a sweep are little this time?
posted: Aug 5th, 2006 The NSL News found the Fun Flag last year at the Malevsky Cup 2005 when a secret meeting with the Canadian team Stratosfear was successfully arranged. The NSL News story on July 11, 2005, provided the confidential insider information. NSL-TV was even able to present a video of the official rising of the Fun Flag, which is still available for viewings (click here). The NSL News had the Fun Flag on its agenda for the World Meet 2006, and the story begins early. The search for the Fun Flag was already successful, and it has still been in possession of the Canadians ever since the Malevsky Cup.... (more)
