News Article Did you know that the Air Force teams switched positions in Colorado?
posted: Jun 6th, 2006 Three teams of the Air Force Academy competed once again at last weekend's third competition of the Colorado Skydiving League. Air Force CAD and Air Force Shockwave had taken the first two places at the CSL May meet. The same line-ups took first and second place again last weekend, only in switched positions. AF CAD's meet average went from 9.8 in May to 9.2 in June, while AF Shockwave improved the meet average from 8.8 in May to 10.3 last weekend.

News Article Did you know that the Midwest Skydiving League teams keep moving up the steps of competition classes?
posted: Jun 6th, 2006 The Midwest Skydiving League 2006 season finally kicked off Saturday at Skydive Chicago in some of the nicest weather the Midwest has enjoyed this year.

News Article Did you know that two NPSL teams have stepped up into new competition classes?
posted: Jun 3rd, 2006 The second attempt of the Northern Plains Skydiving League to kick off the 2006 season was successful. Once again it was not easy since the weather situation was as critical as it was at the original date in May. However, NPSL Director Sandy Grillet was determined to get it done, and he succeeded with an emergency plan: "After looking at the weather and wind forecast late on Saturday I made the decision to move the start time from 8:30 am to 7:00 am. Surprisingly all the competitors supported my decision and agreed to start early. We got four rounds in before 12:30 pm when the winds kicked up... (more)
News Article Did you know that round one of the new SSL-TV shows very busy Perris Fury members?
posted: Jun 3rd, 2006 The video footage of the Southwest Skydiving League's May meet has arrived, and NSL-TV did not hesitate to process and upload the first round Friday afternoon. Unfortunately, the videos of UK's national team in the Women's category, Perris AirKix, are the only ones missing. The different recording format, the European PAL system, was probably the obstacle. However, the other jumps provide the overview of how the SSL teams performed in May, including the top scorer, Elsinore Gravity. It was not the greatest start into the competition for Lou Ascione (Inside Center), Melanie Curtis (Point), John... (more)
