A team from Nottingham has won gold at the British National Skydiving Championships this weekend.
Omni, who train at Skydive Langar in Notts, were crowned the champions in vertical formation skydiving. Along with the trophy, the team also earned an invitation to represent Great Britain at the World Championships of Vertical Formation Skydiving to be held in 2026.
Speaking of the competition, competition director Gareth Thomas said:
“It’s an honour to host the British Skydiving Championships here in Nottingham and we’ve loved welcoming teams from across the UK to compete at the top of their field.
“Our relationship with Omni spans many years and we are proud that they choose to train here with us. It’s great to see them take home the gold and we look forward to supporting them again on their World Championship journey.”
British Skydiving reports around 6,000 regular skydivers here in the UK, many of whom choose to compete and some of whom earn the right to travel the world representing their country at international competitions.
Skydive Langar is the UK’s biggest skydiving centre, welcoming tens of thousands of first time skydivers every year as well as student skydivers and experienced hobbyists.
