About the ISA

Mission Statement of the International Skydiving Association

Simplicity, Inclusivity and Accessibility is our motto, derived from the K.I.S.S. principle… Keep It Simple Skydivers! 

Concept:

A totally online Association, dedicated to the verification, recording and permanent preservation of Skydiving World Records including all Disciplines recognized by World Skydiving organizations. 

Photos and video links of skydiving World Records along with Histories of the development of each Discipline will be available. 

These Histories can only be provided by those that lived them, so we encourage skydivers/historians to submit articles to the ISA for inclusion. 

An example of past Histories can be found in “Night Record Histories”, where an excellent article on Jan Meyer’s site can be viewed as well as Night Records up to the present. 

On this page there is an ad. Other Discipline pages are open for ads as well. Links to websites can also be added.

This is what we envisage for all Disciplines. 

For a new World Record to be included, the ISA requires the Organizer or Chief Judge to submit the details including the date, place and Judge’s names, the camera persons names, the photo and links to the video of the Record completion. 

The camera person whose photo and video link that the ISA publishes of a new World Record will be compensated. This compensation will be available to the cameraperson on receipt of the Record photos and video link. 

The Certificate of the World Record will be available for download from the ISA site by the participants from a link sent to them by the Organizer. This link will be provided to the Record Organizer within 30 days of the ISA receiving all relevant Record information. 

The ISA receives its funding through advertising by gear manufacturers and Drop Zones, thus allowing the Association to offer free services to world-wide skydivers. 

 

An example of what you get as a World Record holder applying for a World Record Certificate:

All custom certificates with images from your jump!  

Guaranteed recording of your World Record by the ISA and publication, all within 30 days of the Record paperwork being received by the ISA from the Record Organizer or Judge. 

In addition, you will be able to access and download a Certificate, signed by the verifying board member with all the names of the Judges and Camera persons and including photos of the World Record. You will be able to add your name to your Certificate. 

There are no fees!
