New Zealand Freefly Record Attempts

Expressions of Interest – NZ Freefly Record Attempts

We are gathering expressions of interest for upcoming Freefly record attempts in New Zealand.

Our goal is to set a new NZ Head-Up Record and to break the current NZ Head-Down Record.

The event is planned for Nov / Dec 2027, giving everyone plenty of time to train with purpose, work towards a shared goal, and build the skills needed for bigway freefly skydives. To participate in either record attempt, flyers must be proficient in both head-up and head-down orientations, as approaches to a head-up formation are flown on the head.

In the lead-up, there will be multiple skills camps across the country, along with a tunnel camp planned over winter, to provide structured training opportunities and progression pathways.

At this stage, we are simply collecting expressions of interest. This is not a registration form. Official registration will open closer to the event once we have a clearer idea of numbers.

Thinking about buying skydiving gear?

Have you — or someone you know — ever spent big on gear, only to find out later it wasn’t the right fit? Maybe the container model didn’t suit your body or flying style, the reserve size wasn’t ideal, or the canopy you bought turned out to be too small for your experience.

FunJumpNZ Gear Advice is here to stop that from happening.

Whether you’re looking at new or used gear, we offer free, unbiased, private advice so you can make smart decisions before you hand over the cash.

We’ll discuss your potential equipment with you to make sure it:
✅ Fits properly
✅ Matches your current jump numbers and future goals
✅ Works for your budget
✅ Meets drop zone requirements — so you’re not stuck on the ground with a sub-100sqft canopy at 94 jumps.

No sales pitches. No brand bias. Just honest guidance from an experienced instructor, coach, parachute technician, DZSO and fun jumper who wants to see you flying safely and happily.

Message us today for free gear advice and make your next purchase with confidence.

Selling gear?
You’re welcome to reach out for tips, but without inspecting equipment in person we can only give general guidance. Do your research around similar gear on the market, and always talk to your local rigger for inspections and pricing advice.
