Did you know that all Czech Indoor Cloud League scores and videos for August were generated only by 4-way juniors? posted: Sep 13th, 2021 The NSL News has been using YouTube services for many years to make training and competition videos, interviews and live event coverage available for the SKYLEAGUE.COM audience. The videos have naturally not much of inappropriate content, if any was ever posted at all.
However, there was a point in time when all social media giants decided and/or where required to take more control over their published content. YouTube added certain checks to follow the requirements, which did not change much of the posting procedure and only added a few more clicks before the same videos would be published.

Did you know that Chimera provided more details of the British 4-way drama? posted: Sep 12th, 2021 The NSL Live Talk on August 14th was mainly a review of the 4-way Women competition at the FAI Tanay Mondial 2020. NFTO members Anna Hicks, Sian Stokes and Julia Swallow discussed the outcome of the competition that they missed after the withdrawal of the complete British Formation Skydiving delegation from the event.
The conversation was recorded less than two weeks before NFTO would have to defend their British 4-way championship title against Chimera and Eros. The UK Nationals 2021 were then covered comprehensively by the NSL News, which turned out to be more than justified. It was the most... (more)
Did you know that FlySpot Sky4Four won Poland's outdoor championship comeback by a single point and with a new record average? posted: Sep 12th, 2021 The next Formation Skydiving competition thriller happened at the national outdoor championships in Poland. The 4-way and 8-way fans really had their fill of very exciting meets this year, which made it somehow easier to deal with the frustrations of the seemingly never-ending corona virus crisis.
The series of nerve-wrecking competition began with the highly anticipated 8-way battle for the world's top spot at the FAI Tanay Mondial 2020. The same event also featured the 2-point upset in 4-way Women, where the Russian Bubbles dethroned the French world champions of 2018.
The same event included... (more)
Did you know that ISR FireFlash won the outdoor comeback after three years of patience? posted: Sep 10th, 2021 It was in September 2018 when the Belgian world-class team ISR FireFlash attended their last outdoor competition. It was the Belgian national championship event that NMP PCH HayaBusa won with a 27.6 average. Little over a month later, HayaBusa then won their 3rd FAI gold medals in Australia.
In the meantime, ISR FireFlash was hit by a very unfortunate accident at the end of the team's second year together. Glenn Straeluyc was injured severely in a work accident shortly after the national championships. His L1 vertebra broke when he fell through a roof, and he had to undergo surgery twice. However,...

Did you know that Germany has two new national 4-way champions and national teams? posted: Sep 10th, 2021 Round 10 at the German Outdoor Nationals 2021 lived up to the dramatic finish of the anticipated battle for the top spot between the reigning 4-way Open Class champions, Oceanside AtomiX, and the German national team of earlier years, Airbus Illertissen.
The third top contender, the Bardarbunga half of the national 8-way team, was also within striking distance after Round 9, as the scores of the last round were showing. Airbus won this one round by ten points over AtomiX. The same scores for different teams in Round 10 could have catapulted the 8-way experts to the 1st place, as well.

Did you know that Dallas Dynasty and Dallas Distraction were scoring for the iFLY Dallas ICL team? posted: Sep 8th, 2021 The Indoor Cloud League continues with events and activities, even though the corona virus implications keep making it difficult for organizers to run events at windtunnels, and the running outdoor season deserves most of the attention for teams and competitors.
Scores and links to the videos are filling the ICL leaderboards very slowly, and the month of July has at least a competitive format by now, featuring a duel between the Czech teams at the Hurricane Factory and Kyle Hermberg's team at iFLY Dallas in Texas.
Four ICL teams had still posted scores and videos in June, and two of them... (more)
