Display
The North West Eagles routine is a high energy formation and synchronized aerial ballet without breaks that is aimed at keeping the spectator focused and interested for a relatively short time, approximately 7 minutes, but creating a lasting image. The display consists of loops, stall turns, switch blade and opposing rolls, snap rolls and knife-edge flight. The solo maneuvers include tumbles, tail slides and avalanches.
