Once again Nick James Batsch has come out on top with Petra at the 2011 National Canopy Piloting Championships that ran from September 14-17 at Skydive Spaceland in Houston, Texas.

Nick came 3rd in Zone Accuracy with a score of 241.00, 1st in Distance with 300, 1st in Speed with 275.60 and 1st overall with a total score of 816.60.
