Did you know that the Qatar Tigers are ready for ten more years? posted: Dec 19th, 2020 The recent update from Sweden connects by coincidence with the 3-week training camp of the Qatar Tigers at Skydive City in Florida that the world-class 4-way team just completed. The NSL News had visited Tigers and coach Gary Smith earlier this month.

It was another coincidence that a new NSL Live... (more)
Did you know that recent Echochamber training is showing the long expected results? posted: Dec 17th, 2020 It was not a surprise that Echochamber, Sweden's national 4-way Open Class team, were not very happy with their 2019 results at the two FAI/ISC events (Indoor World Meet - Outdoor World Cup), and the new year did not start much better with the 8th place at the Wind Games.
Echochamber had made no secret of the team's goal to win FAI medals at the next world meets and world cups, and nothing changed despite the disappointing results. It was not easy to deal with the psychology of under-performing at the main events. However, the ambitious Swedes were aware of the obstacles on the way to FAI medals... (more)

CTR Optimum won the next 4-way title after a battle with the military Cometas team.

Did you know that Vega XP have been training with Niklas Hemlin so far? posted: Dec 12th, 2020 The NSL News announced Vega XP's lineup changes on September 8th, almost exactly a year after the team's last outdoor competition in the AAA/Advanced Class competition of the USPA Nationals 2019.
Vega XP had still competed with the same lineup at the Paraclete XP Indoor Championship 2020, where they won the gold medals in the same category. Then the team, with the two original members Annie and Ian Drennan, had plenty of time to connect with competitors who were interested in the two slots that Brandon Kashani and Nicholas Walker left behind.
Andre Van Heerden and James Hall joined the new... (more)
