I think most of those guys are flying Edge 540's. Those things are like F1 cars (on steroids) of the sky. Roll rate = 420 deg./sec.!!
Caught the re-broadcast of the San Diego round last week. Man those guys can fly. They get deductions for flying too low or flying too high through the gates, not being exactly level through some gates, and not being exactly 90 deg. (knife-edge) through other gates! One guy did manage to clip a cone (big deduction), but they appear to be designed to take a hit, and not compromise the plane in any way (like very thin-membrane inflatable pylons). Crazy stuff...
