Invitationals & Records

For experienced big-way skydivers flying at the highest level, All American Big-Ways invitationals & record events provide a structured environment focused on precision, discipline, and coordinated execution in pursuit of large-scale formation goals.

Invitationals are designed to try shapes and slots that are most challenging and rarely tried. A higher level of experience and technical skill is expected at invitationals, and the barrier to entry is higher than at our skills camps or clubs. In invitationals you will be surrounded by high level large formation athletes to push the limits of what is possible in big-ways: free-flying bases, outfacing radials, asymmetrical formations, multiple references and more. You will be able to apply high-level concepts needed for more challenging formations surrounded by friends in a fun environment. 

Record Attempts bring together dedicated big-way athletes expected to perform for their slot for the entirety of the event, so that we can surpass what has been attempted in the past and set new records. Our events are highly structured and designed to make you perform at your best, so that the larger group meets their goals. Depending on the record type, we expect and need a different skill set, but all records require a positive and team-oriented mindset that we foster from the moment we start recruitment until the end of the event.
