Skydive Designer is a great tool! It’s a game changing tool for organizers and participants at Bigway events. It can both empower the organizer to design, engineer, and slot a skydive quickly, and quickly and easily articulate that vision to hundreds of people in seconds. It’s an essential tool for any serious load organizers. Rather than keeping a library of different sized jumps in your head, build an actual portfolio of well designed jumps for every situation with this tool. Again rather than trying to explain how your crazy skydives work, just show them an animation provided by this tool. Running out of ideas for skydives?? Go online and search the public repository of skydives designed by others for inspiration and submit your own. All the features work smoothly, even if a few of them are a bit too advanced for a simple man like myself. Having the app work seamlessly on all apple devices is a huge plus as well. Do yourself a favor and get this app. Thanks, Joey Marshall Arizona Airspeed

Rob sent me an early version of his Skydive Designer app and I was happy to provide some feedback. Gratified that he would ask my opinion, I paid my subscription fee, watched some instructional videos and began to use the app in an elementary fashion. Before long, colleagues began designing, editing and publishing dives without the ‘trial and error’ heartache that characterized my feeble efforts. Embarrassed by the lack of my technological skills, I caught-up on the new training options and actually learned some of the new options available. What a helpful tool! I am still needing to sort out some of the printing possibilities, but surely that will come with time and practice. Thank you, Rob. This is a great help for skydivers around the world.

I own only one Apple device (don't judge). The only reason I own an ipad is so that I can use Skydive Designer. The Skydive Designer app is the only tool that you'll need to develop and engineer formation skydives - belly, freefly, head up, head down, wingsuit, and CRW. The graphics and animaition greatly reduce the time it takes to prep a dive. Let the app do your talking. Replace "Joe, take a grip on Sally's right leg with your left hand....turn 90°..present your right hand to Billy" with "here's what the formation looks like, find yourself, take grips". Additional features include setting a roster (which you can copy/paste from a file on your device), creating a manifest list for each airplane (that can be printed or sent electronically to manifest!), publish your skydive on the cloud so that you don't have to email it to everyone. The "symmetry" feature lets you create a bigway formation by slotting just a few skydivers rather than all of the skydivers in the formation. Download the app. Play with it. You'll be glad you did.

I’m loving coming up with skydives when I’m organizing. Newer jumpers can really “see” the formation. Now my house is always a mess and my garden has no flowers or vegetables as all my free time is spent designing skydives :)

I use this tool all the time from smaller formations up to 100 . The symmetry tool makes larger formations easy and fast to create. I really enjoy the plane slotting tool which makes it easy to make sure no slot or person is double slotted. I would recommend this tool to anyone and everyone!

This tool really makes the life of and organizer simple. So complete that I recommend watching the videos first. Great support from Rob. I totally recommend it. Love just playing around with new formations, new designs and challenging jumps. Breno De Assis
