Progression - Formation Skydiving   FORMATION SKYDIVING (FS)

Formation Skydiving is by far the most popular and widely known aspect of skydiving. It tends to be the part of the sport that most people are aware of even before they start skydiving. There is a huge range to this part of the sport, from building large formations of freefallers linked up (the world record is 300 people linked on one jump!) to speed competitions where teams of 4 to 40 people build a set of formations as fast as possible.
