MFS Workshop

Skydive Orange's very own team, New Show Crew, is hosting a Mixed Formation Skydiving (MFS) workshops this season!

Next Date: April 19, 2025 | 8:00 am to 8:00 pm

These workshops will be focused on learning about MFS within the beginner (belly and back), intermediate (belly, back, and head up), and advanced (belly, back, head up, and head down) skill levels.

You can expect to start the day with a seminar on the basics of MFS training and diveflow engineering, followed by 6-7 jumps in order to develop your in-air skills. Each jump will be accompanied by engineering suggestions and ground preparation, as well as a video debrief (if available) after landing. Both events will be the perfect way to prepare for Cloud Games, as well as the SDO NSC Scrambles event on the 2nd of August (details to come).

The focus of this workshop is engineering for the two inside fliers. There will be a limited number of camera fliers provided, so inside video may be used for debrief. If you can jump a camera, you may be asked to rotate from flying inside to flying outside video. If you are interested in only flying outside video, you are welcome to register and your skills will be put to the test with the fall rate changes involved in flying outside video for an MFS team.
