The field was much smaller than the <a href=\"www.skydivemag.com\/stream\/paraclete-indoor-skydiving-championships\">Indoor competition<\/a> last weekend, with 8 teams in AAA, just one in AA and one VFS team. All but 2 of the AAA teams had competed indoors the previous weekend. Black Cat, the Russian team, was new and Teiwaz, where 2 team members had competed indoor. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Kurt was a great meet director, releasing teams for both cloudy days, and getting off to an early start on the last<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>#AAA<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The first round showed promise of a close meet, with three teams tying for second place, on 19 points to Airspeed\u2019s 22. Although a relatively small turnout (perhaps due in part to the bad weather forecast), the standard was high. The three judges Dirk Venter, Chris Talbert and Jim Rees were very fast with the scoring, using the In-Time system.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/\/47e964b7-b6a8-4a34-a916-33ef7d9aa3b8.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>Two of the six rounds were fast draws; round 4: C, 8, M, 9 and round 6: A, 7, B, G. They came at a nice stage in the competition, after all the teams had got nicely warmed up. Airspeed scored a  37 on round 6, Rhythm &#x26; GK4 both scored 32, and Black Cat a 31. The top three were the same as in the indoor meet, and these teams won cash prizes, a total purse of $8,000, donated by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paracletexp.com\">Paraclete XP<\/a>. Airspeed stormed well ahead of the rest and won with an impressive 27.8 average over 6 rounds, 20 points ahead of nearest rivals SDC Rhythm XP. GK4 ladies again asked for their prize money to be donated by NSL to the Golden Knights Alumni Association, or Kurt Gaebel, whichever he chose.

They were closer to the Golden Knightesses than indoors, and seemed more in control, less on the edge. Turbo had a good battle with Black Cat and beat them by one point at the end. Turbo won 2 of the 3 <a href=\"http:\/\/ww1.skyleague.com\">NSL<\/a> Skins awards, the other going to Black Cat, so both these teams also went home with some cash.

The Dubai ladies team brought in a super-sub of Eliana, to replace Nada after 2 rounds, as she had sinus issues.

They finished on a 17 average, significantly less than 22 indoors. Is VFS on a decline now that so many new free flyers are going into dynamic?  Only one team here, two real teams at Paraclete\u2019s Indoor meet and two at DIPC. That\u2019s a very low turnout compared to recent 2-way and 4-way Dynamic competitions. However on the plus side, the Wind Games featured 7 VFS teams, perhaps this discipline is more prevalent in Europe.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/\/4c08045e-57dd-4747-91f2-3ce4b348cf2c.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>#And Finally<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the end of US 4-way competitions now until the Nationals in Eloy during October. Teams have measured themselves against each other and know what they need to do for the season. Will the pecking order be the same at Nationals? I have a feeling that Carolina Turbo will progress quickly, they could challenge for a medal.  Airspeed are looking awesome, this line-up has gelled, they are having a lot of fun as well as skydiving like animals! It\u2019s hard to imagine how they could go faster but I\u2019m sure they will give it their best. SDC Rhythm have 800 jumps planned, they are very synchronous, precise, and fired up for a steep learning curve. Good luck to all the teams for the season.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Asaar Dubai Ladies \" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/\/e4e2bd62-7458-42d3-a7f1-03251a46af61.jpeg\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although the day prior to Paraclete XP\u2019s Outdoor 4-way competition at Deland was beautiful, clouds covered the sky on the first day of the meet\u2026 and the second \ud83d\ude41 The meet management were kind to competitors in giving stand-downs to avoid useless hours of waiting at the DZ.
