NZ Skydiving League 2026
This is a league for formation skydiving in New Zealand – FS and VFS. Between Nov 2025 and April 2026, our skydiving judges will periodically release a dive pool draw in:
– 2-way FS (Novice)
– 4-way FS (A, AA, AAA)
– 8-way FS
– 2-way VFS (Novice and Open)
Each draw will have 5 skydives for you to engineer and practice. Get some mates together (or a team for Nationals?!) and do these skydives at ANY DZ in NZ.
Post a video of your skydive to the Facebook Group to be scored by the judges. Be sure to include each team member’s name and jump number in the description of the video: https://www.facebook.com/groups/925491792329689
Each team member ‘takes their score’ with them (so the composition of your team can change from weekend to weekend or jump to jump!). The skydiver with the highest score in the League at the end of April wins.
WINNERS PRIZE!!
The winner of the Skydiving League last season walked away with $500 worth of prizes. This coming season our prizes will be bigger and better! Game on?!
DIVE POOL DRAWS
Draws will be posted in the google drive folder below as they are released. Please only submit skydives from the dive pool draws most recently released.

Dive pool draws for most FS categories are now in the Google drive folder (as of 19 Nov). These will be the draws for FS until at least January so get cracking!! We will upload dive pool draws for FS 8-way and VFS as soon as possible.
Notes:
– You can attempt the skydives in each draw as many times as you want and submit your best jump.
– There are no restrictions on how many teams people jump on (you can be in multiple teams and/or multiple events).
– Your video must be good enough quality that the judges can see the details required to score the jump.
– Judges are open to your questions and feedback but their decision will ultimately be final.

Our Accomplishments
Here are some recently completed projects you might like to read about!
Guide to Wingsuiting in NZ
The NZPF brought together an advisory group of experienced wingsuiters from both NZ and Aussie to consider what guidance is needed for wingsuiting in NZ at this time. Their advice and knowledge was put together by the NZPF in an easy-to-read guide.
This guide was produced in response to feedback received from some DZ operators in NZ that know little about wingsuiting and are therefore nervous about welcoming wingsuiters to their DZ. The Guide to Wingsuiting in NZ gives guidance to DZ operators about novice wingsuiters, suit sizes etc.
The Guide also explains how to learn to wingsuit in NZ and what skydivers sharing the sky with wingsuiters should now. Read the guide in full on our Resources Page. This guide was produced with the generous support of the NZPIA.
Canopy Essential Skills & Downsizing
This guide was produced by NZPF and designed to help skydivers gain a better understand of their parachute and how it flies. If you are a skydiver, then you are also a canopy pilot on every jump. Having a solid understanding of how your canopy performs and responds will make you a better and safer pilot.
Downsizing to a smaller canopy is something all skydivers will do sooner or later, and most skydivers will do many times. This is a big decision that should be carefully considered every time. This guide discusses the information you should know and the essential skills you should master before choosing to downsize your canopy.
Check out our Resources Page for a copy of this guide. This guide was produced with the generous support of the NZPIA.
NZPF Values, Conduct & Respect Policy
Knowledge, Champion, Fairness, Fun… these are the core values of the NZPF. Read more about them on our Resources Page.
You can also read through our Conduct & Respect Policy – here at the NZPF we are committed to treating each other with respect. It costs nothing to be nice!
We expect all NZPF officials, members, and associates to abide by our Conduct & Respect Policy.
