Speed Skydiving! It\u2019s official! It\u2019s great to get recognition for something you\u2019ve been doing for ages. Speed skydivers, some of whom have been regularly competing in ISSA<\/a> competitions for over 10 years, have been rewarded with recognition by the IPC<\/a> and Speed is now an official discipline. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

World Championships and World Cups will now feature speed on the roster of disciplines so you\u2019ll see more people in tight suits going at 300 mph from now on!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The hard work of Arnold Hohenegger, supported by Larsen & Brusgaard<\/a> and the other members of the ISSA<\/a> board, of which I have recently become a member, has paid off. We can be proud of the IPC recognition which will bring more exposure and skill development to the fastest sport on the planet!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Committed to Speed<\/h1>\n

<\/p>\n

The IPC is setting up a discipline sub-committee tasked with overseeing all aspects of speed skydiving competition. Mainly comprising current competitors, the committee consists of:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Elisabet Mikaelsson (Alternate Delegate SWE), Chair
\nJohann Gritsch (Delegate AUT), Deputy Chair
\nArnold Hohenegger (AUT), Member
\nMichael Lovemore (GBR), Member
\nThomas Moritz Friess (GER), Member<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“I’m very happy that Speed Skydiving now is an official IPC event. I have been doing the Speed download at Swedish Nationals since we first started to have Speed at our nationals. I’ve never done a speed jump myself! Even so my goal is to make this discipline known to the IPC world and the best ever, but I will need help from you all. Feel free to contact me if you have questions or suggestion how to best promote this great discipline.”<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Elisabet Mikaelsson, Chair of IPC Speed Committee<\/p>\n

\"Fastest<\/p>\n

Time to get out there and get your speed on!<\/h1>\n

<\/p>\n

The current world record is held by Marco Wiederkehr (pictured) of Switzerland, at 330 mph (531 kmh) average speed over 1 kilometer! The female record is 442.73kmh, held by Clare Fryer of the UK. Will we see these broken soon?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Addictive<\/h1>\n

<\/p>\n

I am personally excited about being involved in Speed Skydiving at the moment. It\u2019s an addictive discipline and it\u2019s great to get this official status. After competing, organising competitions, coaching people and trying to encourage more participation in the UK for a few years now, I\u2019m eager to see how much this recognition and exposure will increase the skill level and number of Speeders competing.<\/p>\n
