The Airspeed 4-way camp
Since its inception in the early 1990’s, Arizona Airspeed has coached and produced more World Champions than any team in skydiving history. Through that experience we have developed our highly successful 4-Way Skills Camp, giving you the opportunity to share in our knowledge and develop your skills.
Skydive AZ, home of Arizona Airspeed, is still, the only place in the world where can you fly 4-way in the SkyVenture wind tunnel in the morning then walk to the DZ to make those same jumps in the air. Your coach, the fourth member of your group, is an Arizona Airspeed coach who has the skills and knowledge to develop both the team and its individual members.
By the end of the camp you will have the knowledge of what it takes to be a good team mate and a new appreciation for 4-way. Your jumps will demonstrate the 4 Way skills that have kept Airspeed at the top of world competition for fifteen years.

How the Camp works
The Camp runs for 5 days. On the first day, you work in the tunnel on a 1-on-1 basis with an Arizona Airspeed coach. The focus on the first day is on individual flying skills.
On the second day we put you into groups of four, three of you being students of similar abilities. The fourth member of the team is an Arizona Airspeed coach. Your 4 way group practices in the tunnel for 15 minutes and then heads to the DZ to repeat the jumps in the air. You will debrief each jump with your team using the Airspeed proven technique of debriefing. We give you a DVD of your jumps and tunnel time enabling you to review your technique up close.
On the final day you have the chance to show off your new skills with a 4 way competition, followed by an end-of-camp dinner.
Your skill level
We don’t expect you to know everything – after all, that’s why you’re coming to an Arizona Airspeed Camp! But we do ask the following:
-
You must have basic 4 Way skills
You should already know some formations
You need to familiarize yourself with the current IPC dive pool
Make sure you are physically fit – this is a challenging five days and you will get more out of the camp if you are fit
Come prepared – this is not a boogie!
