Wanna learn about Mixed Formation Skydiving, do some fun and challenging jumps with your friends, and maybe even win some prizes while doing it??
SDC MatriX is hosting a fun and friendly Mixed Formation Skydiving competition during SDC’s annual Freedomfest!
Friday, July 5th
Skydive Chicago
“Scrambles” means you will be paired with a different partner each round.
We’ll do 6 jumps, drawn from the MFS dive pool. We will add up your individual points from each round.
Prizes and bragging rights go to the top finishers.
Because the MFS camera flyer is always part of the team, and arguably the most challenging, yet rewarding position to fly, each Advanced participant will be required to shoot video for 1 or 2 of the rounds.
TWO DIVISIONS!
Advanced: must be able to take docks and be a safe and proficient flyer while Head Down, Head Up, on Belly, and Back. Also a willingness to rotate through the camera slot on some rounds.
Intermediate: Head-Up, Belly, and Back only! Participants must be able to take basic docks and have the ability to move and fly safely while Head Up, on Belly, and Back.
REGISTRATION:
There is a $20 entry fee 😎 and we need you to fill out this short Google form.
