** The TBS150 WORLD RECORD has been POSTPONED **
NEW DATES: OCTOBER 10-14, 2022
Join us this October 4-7 for the 2021 replacement event "TBS Episode 1!"
Unfortunately the world has not opened up as quickly as needed for us to with confidence hold the Total Break Sequential 150-Way World Record event as planned for October 2021. However, we were all so excited about getting together and doing some great jumps that we have decided to still hold an event which will allow us to organize it without all of the requirements necessary to the success of a World Record event, and which will give us more flexibility for its organization and more time for participants to commit.
The theme of the event will be Total Break Sequential skydives because we love it so much, because the level will be there to go for it on each jump, and because it will allow us to prepare for the TBS150 that will take place next year.
EPISODE 1 EVENT UPDATE AS OF AUGUST 2021:
- This event IS HAPPENING alongside and in support of the 2021 Skydiving Hall of Fame festivities.
- The potential for international travel restrictions have made it impossible for us to plan any kind of record this year. But we will use this event to practice and train doing TBS jumps in preparation for the TBS150 next year.
- All the jumps will be Total Break Sequential starting with 32 to 42 ways and building throughout the week.
- The TBS EPISODE 1 jumps will include jumpers who we know have the skills and experience to be selected for the TBS150 World Record Event in 2022 and others who are being strongly considered.
- Simultaneously, we will also be holding a TBS CAMP for jumpers who have shown the potential to be on the record but haven't yet demonstrated they are ready and will benefit more from a TBS Camp. The TBS Camp is not a big way camp. All the TBS Camp participants must have the skill to consistently and smoothly build the formations so we have time to do total break sequential. It is possible that jumpers at the camp who are doing a superb job in every slot we put them in could be moved to the TBS Episode 1 group.
We don't know if all people will be allowed to travel in October. Because of this it is very difficult for us and you to make definite plans. This is a large part of why it has taken this long to come up with the plan and why the plan leaves us room to improvise if travel is restricted.
SLOTS ARE STILL AVAILABLE! If you wish to be considered FOR EITHER GROUP (TBS Episode 1 or TBS Camp), you must apply for the TBS Episode 1 event online via the link below even if travel restrictions do not yet allow you to commit 100%. Pricing and other details will be announced soon.Dates:
