Dive Pool Changes

[skyleague]

The NSL News has covered several topics after the World Meet 2008
(http://www.skyleague.com/pages/scores/results.php?
event=508&meetNumber=5) that will be discussed by the
Formation Skydiving Committee of the International Parachuting
Commission (IPC) at the upcoming meeting in Sweden on 1 February 2009.

Two recent NSL News stories covered the committee's plans to make
adjustments of the actual dive pool. The first story on 2 December
2008 (http://www.skyleague.com/pages/news/showArticles.php?story=1257)
explained the history of the blocks and random formations. The story
on 11 December
2008 (http://www.skyleague.com/pages/news/showArticles.php?story=1264)
followed up and explained the position of the current dive pool in the
bigger picture of Formation Skydiving competition and questioned the
need for dive pool changes.

Perris Fury, currently the second strongest team in the USA and one of
the best 4-way teams in the world, took some time after the USPA
Nationals 2008 (http://www.skyleague.com/pages/scores/results.php?
event=530&meetNumber=11) to discuss the IPC dive pool. Christy Frikken
now summarized her team's position and provided the NSL News and the 4-
way community with a view from a different angle with the NSL News
story on 16 December 2008 (http://www.skyleague.com/pages/news/
showArticles.php?story=1268).

It is the right time now to discuss dive pool changes in the public.
The IPC FS Committee needs to hear from as many people as possible to
make good decisions.
