What Topics and Sections Does Skydive the Mag Cover?

Updated

Skydive the Mag is the online home of British Skydiving's magazine content, organised into six main sections: Club News, Competitions, Events, Gear, Progression and Safety. If you want drop zone updates, competition results, event dates, equipment reviews or skills and safety guidance, the section you need is listed below.

The six main sections

Section What it covers
Club News What has been happening at your local drop zone
Competitions News from all the British Skydiving National Championships and international competitions
Events When the latest comps, courses, council and committee meetings are taking place
Gear The latest gear news and reviews
Progression Building your knowledge and improving your skills
Safety How to stay safe and manage your risk

How to choose where to start

  • You jump at a UK drop zone and want local updates → Club News.
  • You follow competitive skydiving → Competitions, for National Championships and international results.
  • You are planning around dates → Events, which lists competitions, courses, and council and committee meetings.
  • You are buying or comparing equipment → Gear, for news and reviews.
  • You want to move up a discipline or skill level → Progression.
  • You want risk-management guidance → Safety.

What kind of articles appear

The magazine's content mixes news with instructional and feature writing. Examples of topics covered include how to become a skydiver, how to start freestyle skydiving, coaching new coaches, the tunnel-to-sky transition, wingsuit records, VFS (vertical formation skydiving), AFF, and gear and safety features. So the sections above are not just news feeds — Progression and Safety in particular carry skill-building and risk-management material.
