The organisation required in order to have a successful Dubai International Parachuting Competition is huge and arranged in a very formal way. The Higher Organising Committee is made up of the Emirates Aerosports Federation and representatives from Dubai and all final and executive decisions are taken there,
however the "on the ground" arrangements are made by the Technical Committee above. Helmut Schlecht who has built an organisational team around him over the 6 years of the Dubai International competitions. Each person is responsible for an area of the organisation and brings his expertise to the role, whilst the whole is co-ordinated by Helmut Schlecht.

A huge thank you must go to His Highness Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammef Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Sports Council for his continuing Patronage, sponsorship and support of the Dubai International Parachuting Competition without which none of this would have been possible. Also a thank you to the Emirates Aerosport Federation (EAF) and Skydive Dubai and the various committees and people who worked so hard to make this a success.

Three years ago Gillian Rayner of the International Parachuting Commission (IPC) and Axel Zohmann of the International BodyFlight Association met to discuss the feasibility of hosting a World Cup for Indoor Skydiving. The IPC went on to modify the “outdoor” rules for skydiving for use indoors to include four disciplines: Formation Skydiving (FS), Vertical Formation Skydiving (VFS) as well as for the artistic events which include Freefly and Freestyle. In January of 2014, iFLY Austin’s Operations Manager Erin Horton secured the bid to host the 1st FAI World Cup of Indoor Skydiving. On November 13th, months of hard work came together as the President of the International Parachute Council, Graeme Windsor, declared the meet officially open. An air of anticipation passed through the banquet room for no one quite knew what to expect, as the weekend was to be the first of its kind. 5th DIPC Dubai, Day 9

Meanwhile an 8.00 first load for Canopy Piloting with Freestyle - as today the Canopy Piloting event completed. The two rounds of Speed/Distance combined event - which was enjoyed and approved of by the competitors - two rounds of Dragged Distance and 2 rounds of Carved Speed. I apologise for the lack of pictures on this site of the Canopy Piloting, but there will be loads on the EAF website in the days following DIPC5 The Prize Giving ceremony is planned for 17.30 tomoorow afternoon after which we will be treated to a firework display.
