NWFlyer 2 #1 August 13, 2013 I also posted in this in Events & Places to Jump, but I'm hoping the mods will forgive me a double post since I think this is a better place. After finishing up the 2001 season, the NCSL went dark ... but it's back!! We were just featured in the NSL news and are excited to be part of the NSL and bring 4-way competition back to Northern California. http://ww1.skyleague.com/pages/news/showArticles.php?story=13215 http://ww1.skyleague.com/pages/news/showArticles.php?story=13233 I'm really excited about the group that's pulling this together - it's a great mix of newer jumpers and veterans, and we've had tremendous response to our first events. We have some great 4-way events coming up this year in anticipation of starting competition in 2014. You can get all the details and sign up on the NCSL Facebook Page.

jtiflyer 0 #2 August 14, 2013 Just observation. Switching event days to sundays would mean you would not have to deal with fitting inbetween tandems. Plus I could go shoot vid too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #3 August 15, 2013 The first tunnel event at iFly SFBay was great! Thanks again to iFly for the support of the league. We saw some really fantastic improvement in our newer jumpers, and everyone's super-excited about continuing to learn the intricacies of 4-way. Next up is a skills camp at SkyDance Skydiving on August 24th and we're expecting a big crowd for that one, as well!"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

NWFlyer 2 #4 August 25, 2013 Holy moly, what a turnout! We ended up with 13 teams yesterday at our SkyDance skills camp, doing 4 jumps each. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, and most importantly, it was a safe event. We had a nice mix of newer jumpers and the old dogs, with a great team of coaches, videographers, and ground support keeping everything running smoothly."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

hillson 0 #6 October 17, 2013 It was really awesome when Orlando was the only kicker in town; we won every month. Then Seattle joined in the mix and we actually had to work. Then NH showed up and we realized that 20+ averages in the beer brackets really didn't mean all that much. Then the Czechs arrived and we said "ah, fuck it, they're from Yurrop" and the realized that they can smoke it in the breezy tube Then SF crashed the party and things were reset again... I like seeing the weekenders (of which I'm one) compete in 4-way. I like it even better when ZHills, already dealing with the Project Orange stuff, has to bring in another plane just to deal with the lift needs of the 4-way teams competing in the FSL playoffs this weekend. Thank you for getting the NorCal stuff off the ground. We need more of it and it is awesome that it is happening. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #7 November 17, 2013 The NCSL has just announced its full schedule for 2014 ... six meets, plus year-end playoffs, as well as monthly tunnel events at iFly SF Bay. I know of several Norcal teams either already formed or forming for next year - should be a fun, competitive year in Northern California! Hopefully some of our friends from up and down the coast can join in our comps next year, too! https://www.facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaSkydivingLeague/events NCSL January 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, January 8, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL February 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, February 12, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL March 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, March 12, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL April 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, April 9, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 4-way Meet #1 Bay Area Skydiving Saturday, April 26, 2014 NCSL May 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, May 14, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 4-way Meet #2 Skydance Skydiving Saturday, May 24, 2014 NCSL June 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, June 11, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 4-way Meet #3 Parachute Center Saturday, June 28, 2014 NCSL July 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, July 9, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 4-way Meet #4 Skydive Sacramento Saturday, July 26, 2014 NCSL August 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, August 13, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 4-way Meet #5 Bay Area Skydiving Saturday, August 23, 2014 NCSL September 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, September 10, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 4-way Meet #6 Skydance Skydiving Saturday, September 27, 2014 NCSL October 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, October 8, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL 2014 Playoffs Parachute Center Saturday, October 18, 2014 NCSL November 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, November 12, 2014 at 8:00pm NCSL December 2014 Tunnel Kicker at iFly SF Bay Wednesday, December 10, 2014 at 8:00pm"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.
