posted: Feb 3rd, 2024 The competition for the potentially open 8-way bronze medal position at the 26th FAI World Formation Skydiving Championships 2024 in North Carolina has already begun, even long before the team registration for the event will be completed. The NSL News reported on 6 December 2023 that the 8-way situation in Germany was still in motion. The Airbus 8-way team, in 2nd place behind Operation Adler at the end of the German national outdoor championship 2023, had resumed with indoor training at that time, with a plan for roughly 12 hours of tunnel time and 200 - 250 training jumps in 2024, while Operation...

posted: Feb 1st, 2024 The NSL News provided live coverage several times from SkyVenture New Hampshire when owners Laurie and Rob Greer, together with Ben Liston, invited 4-way teams to their annual 1-day Tunnel Fest. Live coverage from the competition site ended with the impact of the corona virus crisis and continued in a slightly different way when the event had its comeback in 2022 and 2023. The slightly changed NSL News coverage from the competition site was not made available for the public in the beginning, as Ben Liston and his former Mass Defiance team mate Steve "Scuba" Feldman, alias NGL-TV Anchor Gurt...

News Article Did you know that NSL Profiles now feature Julien Degen?
posted: Jan 30th, 2024 The name of Julien Degen has appeared very regularly in NSL News updates, at least since July 2005, when French national coach Jerome David mentioned him during an interview. At that time, Julien Degen was already selected for the new 8-way lineup who would finally win the first world championship title for France. French 8-way teams had ended up 11 times behind the U.S. teams and Russia since 1985, and Jerome David was on a mission to change that. He selected a new and young 8-way lineup after the 3rd place on home turf in Gap 2003, with only Emmanuel Sarrazin returning, and including Julien... (more)

posted: Jan 28th, 2024 The Golden Knights 4-way and 8-way teams have traditionally conducted their outdoor winter camps in Florida, sometimes in South Florida, sometimes in Central Florida. The current agenda of the U.S. Army's Competition Team, now supported again by command and management, resumed the tradition, and the 4-way team traveled to Skydive City, where they are in the middle of their winter camp. They brought their coach, Arizona Airspeed's Niklas Hemlin, to Florida to continue the work that he has started with the new lineup. It was coincidence that GKXP8 members Jeana Billings and Kirk Verner happened... (more)
