When Hayabusa launched their 10, it seemed that tail flyer Jeroen Nollet was spinning to start the block move as they fired through the door, very reminiscent of the French 8-way launches out of the Porter. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>##Gold<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The Belgian team <strong>Hayabusa<\/strong> had a storming meet, despite their jumpsuits, clothes and helmets being stolen out of their team van. They found the culprit in the streets wearing a Hayabusa jacket! Between visits to the police, the guys were forced to fly in borrowed equipment. Gregor made a trip of mercy from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skydiveempuriabrava.com\">Skydive Empuriabrava<\/a> with some replacement or old gear, such as Dennis\u2019s old jumpsuit he sold last year, and Andy flew in a suit lent by the Qatar team.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The Belgians went into an early lead and stormed through the competition well ahead of anyone else, finishing on a 31.1 average. Andy Grauwels said they suffered from coming from the summer where they have been skydiving hard, to a tunnel environment. They were beaten on a couple of rounds by the Russians, and intend to train hard before their next meet, the Clash of Champions in Dubai. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the first time in my life I want to fly 4-way\u201d Domi Kiger, world freestyle champion and developer of D4W, on watching Hayabusa<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"First indoor 4-way World champions, Hayabusa, for Belgium (current outdoor champions)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/\/ef963a9c-c413-40e6-9bdd-477326f8753a.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>##Medals<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Russians<\/strong> flew hard to take silver medal and beat the current world champions on some rounds. The <strong>French<\/strong> teams struggled in round 3, both losing heavily to busts, the male team lost 4 points  and the female team 3 for the same offence. The judges ruled that the teams had pushed on the side of wall, a rule relatively recently introduced to avoid using muscle against the wall rather than flying. After that, both teams were super careful to avoid the wall. The French lost 4 points to penalties on that round, giving four points away to Qatar, who powered up and gave the French a battle all the way for the bronze medal. France went into the final just one point ahead, it was a fast round and anyone\u2019s game. Watching the high speed action in the tube, no-one was giving anything away and we had to wait for the judges\u2019 decision\u2026 26 points France to 25 for Qatar and the new young French team took the bronze! <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The French, bronze medallists\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/\/cfdfcef0-8494-4492-ab22-ff0cf7c46590.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>##Notables<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>Qatar<\/strong> did outstandingly to get so close to the medals with a team and squad that has only existed a few years, nice one coach Luc Verstrepen! <strong>UAE<\/strong> (Asaar) had an epic battle with the <strong>UK<\/strong>, setting off in the lead and charging till round 4, when a small brain lock for Asaar (UAE) and a superb round from Voodoo (UK) made a 6-point difference, turning the tables.

Along the way they scored a 41 and a 40. They are crowned Indoor World Champions in female 4-way, and rightly so  &#8211; but it\u2019s a sign of their class that, had they entered the Open event they would have taken a clear silver medal, with 294 points to Hayabusa\u2019s 311 and Russia\u2019s 281.

They went into their last round 12 points ahead yet still flew their bootees off, really flying hard with great presence,, ending on a  22.5 average. if that\u2019s what Girls Fly Like, you\u2019re setting a fine example! Sparky told me they only started training in October as they were all committed to other teams in the summer.

The worst part of this was that most teams were told only as they were waiting to fly round 2\u2026 just minutes before, then told they were to repeat round 1 &#8211; how\u2019s that for screwing with your head!

The downsides? Not many. One factor is that the teams set their wind speed for the competition during training, when generally the tunnel is hot, due to full-on use, but it can be much cooler when they fly their round, so then the wind speed is higher than ideal. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>#The Future<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>It has been agreed there will be a second IPC Indoor World Cup next year. So now IPC has embraced wind tunnel competitions, will its member countries have to run Nationals? Many countries have already done so but some governing bodies may be more reluctant. We shall see!
