posted Feb 15th, 2015 - The team in 5th place at the Wind Games 2015 had the most colorful lineup of the 13 teams in the 4-way Open Class. The team members were from three different nations and joined forces only for this indoor event.

Luc Verstrepen is a former NMP-PCH Hayabusa member and has recently been coaching Qatar's national team, the Tigers.

Mario Fatorusso and Ivan Quadrio are former eX3MO members who competed for Italy at the Mondial Dubai 2012.

Pete Allum was the eX3MO player coach in 2012 when Placido Udine was injured in a car crash after the Italian Nationals 2012 and before the world meet.

The three eX3MO members of 2012 now had their reunion at the Wind Games 2015.

Pete Allum will next travel to Florida and attend the Paraclete XP Outdoor Championship 2015 as the meet coach, sponsored by CYPRES.

He will become the 99th Teiwaz member and help all teams with engineering and technical advice.

The former Sebastian XL member, Great Britain's national 4-way team until 2003, has joined forces with his former XL team mates at several World Challenges, the indoor event in Bedford that follows in April.

However, XL has not yet announced the lineup for this year's event.

The Paraclete XP Outdoor Championship 2015 includes a AA Class competition for the teams who plan to attend the USPA Nationals in the Intermediate Class later this year.

New AA Class team DeLand Flashpoint will try to defend the home turf, and Pete Allum will offer his wealth of coaching experiences for all teams in DeLand.

The scoring system in DeLand will be provided by InTime. Eric Heinsheimer, Jim Rees and Chris Talbert will push the InTime buttons, which will put the attending teams to a serious test for the upcoming competition season.

The Paraclete XP Outdoor Championship 2015 features the second showdown between Arizona Airspeed and SDC Rhythm XP this year. The first one will take place at the Paraclete XP Indoor Championship 2015 on the previous weekend.

The next best US 4-way teams, Golden Knights and Carolina Turbo XP, will join the world class field under the scrutiny of the high-profile judges.

The new Golden Knights 8-way lineup will use the meet opportunity, as well, even if no other 8-way team will compete in DeLand. Team captain Sean Sweeney said that he wants to put some pressure on his new lineup, which comes with the official judging.

The new SDC Core lineup, one of the VFS 4-way top contenders this year, visits DeLand for exactly the same reason, and the audience may see the complete US Formation Skydiving delegation for 2016 in action at the Paraclete XP Indoor Championship 2015...
