News Article Did you know that Sky4ll gear up to challenge Denmark's CISM 4-way team?
posted: Feb 16th, 2021 The last NSL News update from Denmark was posted after last year's national outdoor championship, where three AAA Class teams competed for the 4-way title and the tickets to the next FAI outdoor world meet, which is the FAI Tanay Mondial 2020 in August this year. It was a close race, and the Danish CISM team, formerly known as VAF Warriors, won by four points after ten rounds. The same three teams have been working on their plans for the near future ever since, and the corona virus crisis allowed them more time at the drawing board than they may have liked to have. However, they produced promising... (more)
News Article Did you know that the ICL team from iFLY Dallas is sporting two teams for the Paraclete XP meet?
posted: Feb 15th, 2021 The iFLY Dallas team opened the 2021 season of the Indoor Cloud League with the highest total since 2016. The Texas group of 4-way fans joined the Indoor Cloud League in May 2014 and have posted January scores ever since. The ICL teams all posted their scores on the same leaderboards in the first two years (2014 - 2016) until two different sets of draws separated the participating teams in the larger 14+ flying chambers from the teams on the 12+ leaderboard. The six ICL sequences were tailored to fit all flying chambers before the introduction of the 14+ leaderboard in May 2016. The new set... (more)
News Article Did you know that the Shamrock Showdown resumes a long meet tradition in March?
posted: Feb 14th, 2021 The story of the Shamrock Showdown began officially in 2002. The next edition in March 2021 resumes the event series before the 20-year anniversary in 2022. The inaugural event in 2002 took place when the Florida Skydiving League transitioned from the original format and schedule to the current one. The Florida Skydiving League was launched in the winter of 1996/1997. World-class teams in Florida (DeLand Equanimity, Sebastian XL, DeLand Genesis) and regularly visiting teams from other countries for outdoor winter training (DeLand Norgies) were eager to get more competition practice. Plans... (more)
News Article Did you know that Austria produces the next ambitious and promising 4-way team?
posted: Feb 12th, 2021 The NSL News introduced the Austrian 4-way team Black Mantis after the Austrian Nationals 2019. After two years of team training, Black Mantis had arrived at the point where they were offering the Austrian 4-way veterans of Final Fire serious opposition on the top of the leaderboard. The NSL News followed Black Mantis regularly on their way to the national outdoor championship title a year later. Not much happened ever since, as Austria was suffering from the corona virus pandemic as all other countries. NSL Live Talk with the team on 4 October 2020 provided an update of the situation in...

News Article Did you know that Ranch 2nd Generation members were and still are U.S. shooting stars?
posted: Feb 11th, 2021 The recent change in the XPG4 lineup has brought back into 4-way action one of the original Ranch 2nd Generation (R2G) members, Brenn Richards, as the NSL News reported on January 27th. The young U.S. shooting star team was an exciting and regular topic for the NSL News since the team was formed in 2015. The very promising team project came to an end when R2G began to cut the distance to the best teams in the United States, after breaking through the 20-average outdoor benchmark at the USPA Nationals 2019. The R2G project was over, while the end of the team was only the beginning for the... (more)
News Article Did you know that the Qatar Tigers finished with a top performance in Round 8?
posted: Feb 10th, 2021 The NSL News posted new competition videos of the Qatar Tigers a few days ago. They came from a military CISM event in Qatar, where a few teams used the new skydiving facilities for a test run. Round 8 was missing at that time, and the video has now been added, after the competition was completed with the last official round. Tigers coach Gary Smith was at the competition site, as well, and the NSL News used the opportunity for an update with a new NSL Live Talk conversation. Gary Smith also recorded a few scenes of the competition site on the last day, which was prepared for the award ceremony. He... (more)
