Rob is also the Developer of the amazing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/project-19-app\/\">Project 19 App<\/a>, and he finished the SDC Rhythm <a href=\"https:\/\/rhythmskydiving.com\/rhythm-apps\">101 and 401 Apps<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><em>App:<\/em><\/strong> &nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/skydivedesigner.app\/\">Skydive Designer<\/a><\/li><li><strong><em>Suitable for:<\/em><\/strong> &nbsp;Load organisers, coaches, record organisers, formation skydivers, geeks<\/li><li><strong><em>Systems:<\/em><\/strong> &nbsp;Apple Mac, iPad, iPhone<\/li><li><strong><em>Available:<\/em><\/strong> &nbsp;From the App store <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/skydive-designer\/id1495969361\">here<\/a><\/li><li><strong><em>Cost:<\/em><\/strong> About $50 USD per year (App store varies by country)<\/li><li><strong><em>In a nutshell:<\/em><\/strong> &nbsp;Genius!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting started<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skydive Designer App is very friendly and intuitive so you can do what I did, just open it and start playing, it\u2019s a fun voyage of discovery! A smarter approach is to watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/skydivedesigner.app\/info\/tutorials\">tutorials<\/a> first as there are an abundance of super-handy features and some very powerful tricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Skydive Designer Introduction\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UtbgPTcvMwk?start=1&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Skydive Designer Whistlestop Tour<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Create a skydive of any size to start. You can then drag and drop to add people, individually or in 4-way groups \u2013 star, diamond, donut, zipper, etc. Then move, rotate, colour the skydivers individually or as a group or subgroup to create your dive. It\u2019s easy to add points, each new formation will begin with the existing formation, move them around as desired. You might have a second point in mind but if you don\u2019t, this is a fun tool to play around and see what will work. Biomechanics are pretty accurate, so for example, you can tell if a 4-way line will close your desired gap or if you need more. You can change individual arm lengths to make the formations close and look tidy. A history section keeps track and gives endless Undos, and a Snap-to-angles feature keeps everything regular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A feature I love is the animation between points, so once you have your multi-point skydive, you can play it on video, and watch the transitions. I found this especially brilliant to show my big-way camp the desired way for tracking teams to form and leave together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30_Slots-iPad-Pro-12.9-inch-3rd-generation-2020-10-08-at-20.02.18_framed-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30_Slots-iPad-Pro-12.9-inch-3rd-generation-2020-10-08-at-20.02.18_framed-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30_Slots-iPad-Pro-12.9-inch-3rd-generation-2020-10-08-at-20.02.18_framed-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30_Slots-iPad-Pro-12.9-inch-3rd-generation-2020-10-08-at-20.02.18_framed-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30_Slots-iPad-Pro-12.9-inch-3rd-generation-2020-10-08-at-20.02.18_framed-1536x1151.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30_Slots-iPad-Pro-12.9-inch-3rd-generation-2020-10-08-at-20.02.18_framed-2048x1535.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Drag and drop numbers from your chosen planes to the skydivers for exit order<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aircraft<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exit order, with names or numbers is so easy \u2013 choose your aircraft from the menu and drag and drop numbers on your formation.

This provides a web-based version of the jump which can be seen by anyone who&nbsp;has a phone or laptop with an internet connection. It can&nbsp;include slots and roster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again &#8211; jumpers can see animated transitions between points and can see the whole plan on their mobile or laptop. This means that while Windows and Android users can&#8217;t create jumps, they can easily view them. This should be a great way for bigway organisers to share jump designs with their teams. As an example, you can see the complete break 2-point 130-way (<a href=\"https:\/\/skydiveperris.com\/\">Skydive Perris<\/a>), world record jump <a href=\"https:\/\/skydivedesigner.app\/j\/wkpur\">here<\/a>. If you click the &#8216;Slots&#8217; checkbox you&#8217;ll see the planes and slotting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Milko joked (was it a joke??) that he plans to forget the dirtdive, just send people the next jump on WhatsApp, and get on the planes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><em>As a load organiser, this is one of the best things that has happened to formation skydiving in my entire career.

You can select to mirror your input by 2, 3, etc, all the way up to 10. So if you have a 5-way base you select 5-way symmetry. This is a HUGE timesaver for building very large formations (100way plus), which takes literally hours to create everything from scratch.

Simply brilliant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just look at how easily the (existing) total break world record was created to see what I mean&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Recreating the complete break world record in Skydive Designer\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ASecgrtewEc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Total break world record, designed and colour-coded in 4 minutes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limitations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A downside is that Skydive Designer is only available for Apple.
