Thursday 10 September 2015

08.30hrs:  All disciplines other than 4-Way Open and Female are released until 15.30hrs due to altitude restrictions imposed by Schipol ATC. So far this morning we have completed 10 lifts, but these Cessna Supervans are so fast the jumpers can't pack quick enough between lifts, forcing 15 minutes aircraft breaks as needed.

By lunchtime all 4-Way Open and Female teams had completed Round 8 and were released until 07.40hrs tomorrow, when the semi-final and final rounds will be jumped. We're waiting for the cut to be announced. In the meantime fun jumps are taking place. Those disciplines requiring higher altitudes have now re-populated the dropzone and are waiting to hear which loads they are on. The Speed Skydiving guys have just been given a 25 minutes call for their 4th round.

The first three positions remain unchanged and whilst Hayabusa have, to all intents and purposes, an unbeatable lead, one can't be that emphatic with Black Cat and VR4 France, who have a margin of 6 points between them. The chances are that the positions won't change - but let's keep the tension going!
