Friday Freakout: Where's Waldo? Near Mid-Air Colli...
Soooo, a skydiver in this group fell below the formation and instead of getting back up to the formation or watching them until break-off, he just decided to track off in a random direction and hope for the best. Without knowing where Waldo went, the videographer tracks away at break-off and nearly collides in mid-air... Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Skydiving Student's Low, Low, LOW...
Maintaining altitude awareness is a good thing. Having an instructor that saves your ass is even better, especially when you’re flopping around on your back and then you freeze at pull time, like deer in the headlights. Before watching the very last second of this video, take a guess at his deployment altitude. Watch Video »
Skydiving Outro: Slow Down, We're Dreaming
Have you ever had that feeling in freefall when everything slows down, almost as if time is standing still, like a dream? This video from Jakob Aungiers aims to replicate that experience, and it’s set perfectly to M83′s “Outro” from their album “Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming.” Speaking of which, check out our edit, Distortion In...

Voss Ventus: Vonderful Vindtunnel Video
Voss Ventus competed and won “The Battle of Bottrop 2012,” which was the first tunnel competition of its kind to focus on the new concept of Dynamic Freefly 4-way.

Why Does Dexter Skydive?
If you asked Dexter Marcelino why he skydives (you remember Dexter from this INCREDIBLE pic, right?), this is the closest thing to an answer that he could give you. These are some of his best skydiving memories and shenanigans from the past year — inflatable raft jumps, roundhouse kicks to the face, and some pretty... Watch Video »

The Endless Summer
Most of us wish summer would never end, especially those of us who live through a proper winter with snowshoes, igloos and dogsleds. That is, unless you’re one of those people that swap your rig for a snowboard around this time of year… traitor! Well it looks like Mason Corby kept the party going in... Watch Video »
Love Life: A Tribute To Kurt Ruppert Jr.
A tribute to Kurt Ruppert Jr. on his last jump at the Invasion 2012 with Scotty Burns and friends. Kurt has been missing since January 3, 2013 after flying his wingsuit around some mountainous terrain in Washington State. Not only was Kurt adventurous and a talented wingsuit pilot, but he was generous and giving, often... Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Zoo Dive, Close Call Openings
Talk about a zoo dive. Here’s a dozen skydivers on a tracking jump at the Invasion 2012 and a few of the people that fell behind get a little too close for comfort, tracking over each other — and towards each other — at break-off. The 180 opening didn’t help either. Compared to this other... Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Skydiver Hits Head HARD On Plane!
The skyvan was flying at the Invasion 2012, and this is a good example of how NOT to exit said aircraft. We call it “jumping” for a reason… because we’re jumping out of planes, not casually stepping out of them. Despite how bad this looks/sounds, luckily he was wearing a helmet and he landed safely...

It’s hard not to have fun at the Invasion, and this edit by David Farmer has fun written all over it. I love the tattoo quote at 2:28, “Fear is the thief of dreams.” Have you ever been to Skydive Sebastian’s Invasion? If so, what was your most memorable moment? Watch Video »

While training for the upcoming women’s freefly world record, a new women’s vertical Florida state record was set at Skydive Sebastian during the Invasion 2012.

It’s not too often you get a 3-in-1 parachute malfunction. It starts off with two guys entangled in lines. Then one of them puts their canopy on spin cycle. And just as they untangle from the mess, he cuts away, ejecting himself back into freefall — which, I must admit, kinda looks like fun considering... Watch Video »
