SCORING SYSTEM: InTime (www.intimescoring.com)
If you are seriously training for the USPA National Skydiving Championships, this meet will provide teams the perfect opportunity to find out what Nationals-level judges think of your team's ability to 'clearly present the start of working time, correct scoring formations, inters, and total separations to the videographers and the judges.' (SCM 9.7.1.5).
When we say "Nationals-level judges" we mean International, really... led by Randy Connell, who has been Chief Judge at several USPA Nationals competitions and trains judges worldwide.
Artistic Events judges will include Bryce Witcher (internationally rated to judge AE and the 2024 USPA National Skydiving Championships AE Chief Judge).
♦ Do you know the best video angles required in order for all grips, all separation, all center point clearances and maneuvers to be visible to the judges?
♦ Only the teams competing on-site at Spaceland Houston will be eligible to receive medals, AS WELL AS...
♦ Would it help if you were able to sit down with judges right after the comp ends, and ask "why did we get busted?" Or for the AE crowd, "why did we get this score?" (online followup session will be available for artistic/remote teams)
Attend Pre-Nationals and give your team all that and more. The best training for competition is competition that simulates Nationals better than any other competition.
This meet is also a Texas Skydiving League stop. Your result in this meet counts toward the TSL season standings.
