Team Centerline is a 4-way formation skydiving team. We train rigorously to compete in both regional and national competitions. Our aggressive training program requires a great deal of hard work, dedication and commitment. Tunnel time in state of the art facilities combined with world class coaching serves as the backbone to our regimen. Additionally, each season we commit to a designated number of jumps and utilize our training days for optimum performance with jump preparation on the ground, dive pool drills and exit practice to help build and solidify our skills.

What is Competitive Formation Skydiving
Competitive Formation Skydiving Teams develop their flying skills in wind tunnels and during training jumps to prepare for competition. Formation Skydiving has become a very well organized competitive sport. Regional leagues and meets offer competitions for all levels. The U.S. National Skydiving Championships are held annually as well as the World Championships. The best teams are invited to compete at the World Air Games. Formation Skydiving is working toward becoming part of the Olympic Games. Formation Skydiving is recognized by the IOC (International Olympic Committee), FAI (Federation Aeronautique Internationale), IPC (International Parachuting Committee), as well as the USPA (United States Parachute Association). The recognized and sanctioned disciplines are: 4-Way, 8-Way and 16-Way.
During competition, teams perform between six and eight rounds per day. Upon exit from the aircraft, teams have an allotted time to complete a pre-determined sequence of formations and maneuvers. The team with the most accumulated points wins the round. Each round requires a different sequence of formations and maneuvers. A team videographer films the jump and delivers the footage to the judges for evaluation.
