The Golden Knights just beat their own World Record in 8-way, for the second time in two months! This epic jump was at the World Air Games in Dubai.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Before this year, the World Record was 31 points in time, set by the Knights in 1997 \u2013 it stood unchallenged. The Golden Knights set a new World Record of 32 at the US nationals, in October this year, some 8 years later. Now, less than 2 months later, they again put their names in the record books, with a clean 33.. in fact, it was close to a 34.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Unusually for 8-way the jump was an all-random round. In 4-way, a random sequence is always the fastest draw for a round, since there are only 4 people close to each other, with minimal movement needed. However, in 8-way, high scores including world records are almost always produced with a draw including fast blocks like 1 (donut flake, donut flake), 3 (danish tees, double donuts), 4 (snowflake, inout) and 15 (opal-zipper, zipper, opal). This is because the rapid execution is faster than the time taken for 8 people to release grips, move to a new formation and re-grip. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In this particular sequence (F, L, B, G, P), which was round 2 of the meet, the middle 3 formations are quite similar, with everyone facing forward, so minimal movement is required. It\u2019s very impressive for 8 people to coordinate their movements, grips and keys to build 33 formations in 50 seconds. Their nearest rivals Russia made 26 points by comparison, then France 23. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After two rounds, UAE have 31 points, so a 15+,average, impressive for a team with many new members. They are just ahead of Qatar by 2 points, then Great Britain on a nice 13.5 average. Bringing up the rear are the Netherlands, who had a disastrous start, only building 2 formations and being bust down to a single point. <\/p>\n

Golden Knights World Record skydive, 33 points, World Air Games, Dubai , 2015.
\n
\n(F, L, B, G, P)<\/a><\/p>\n

Congratulations to USA\u2019s Golden Knights, reigning World Champions for the last two occasions, who are going from strength to strength, pushing the frontiers of 8-way forward, inspirational!<\/p>\n
