Freestyle skydiving

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Freestyle is a competitive skydiving discipline where one member of a two-person team performs acrobatic manoeuvres in freefall while the other one films the performance from a close distance using a helmet mounted camera.

Freestyle was first performed by Deanna Kent and others for her husband Norman Kent's 1989 film "From Wings Came Flight". It became a competitive skydiving discipline in the early 1990's and became an official FAI sport in 1996.
