First up, congratulations to all the teams who competed in FS Nationals end of April – after a wet start,
it went off really smoothly with everything except the 8 way completing.
I am sure you all echo our appreciation to Skydive Xtreme for hosting the competition. They did a great job,
once again.
As you know, Nationals counted as the SASL April competition and concluded the 2009-2010 SASL season.
Congratulations to Karen Fourie who won the individual league and has won a trip to Skydive Marche in
Italy. We’d like to say how lucky she is but luck had nothing to do with it. Karen worked hard to win
that trip and we are thrilled with the results.
Well done to Stuart Robinson (2nd place) and Pierre van den Berg (3rd place). The mix of experience
levels in the placings are a sign in our minds that we’re structuring the league, calculations and weighting
factors in a good way. Please send any ideas to improve on this formula.
The team league is a more informal side of SASL but still keeps our teams sparring and pushing each other.
Congratulations to G4B for winning the 4-Way team league. Copasetic (competing as a guest team with 2 guest members) came second and Nashua came 3rd.
In the 2-Way team league, we had Team Phoenix placing 1st, Power Puff Girls 2nd and Nuff Said placing 3rd.
Interesting to note that Karen was on all three of these 2-Way teams!
So if you haven’t noticed, our advice to you is: jump jump jump! Karen put in great performances for her
experience level but she also entered on various teams and various events, securing her place on the leader
board.
Season 1 was so well supported by the FS jumpers. THANK YOU!! We appreciate the support and hope its met
your expectations. We plan to go bigger and better next season.
The new season will kick off in September and we will spend the next few months planning, tweaking and of
course stalking sponsors in a quest to match the fantastic prizes from this season. If you or someone you
know would like to contribute to SASL, please contact us to discuss how you can help.
