Why the Mock State Champs?

We decided to build an event that brings everyone together, to get those who’ve focused solo on their own progression, back into team environments and events, aiming to get them jumping a little more with newer skydivers.

Building the whole community up together – we are too small, not too.

The WA Mock State Championships is designed to:

  •  Provide a non-intimidating comp experience for newer skydivers

     

  • Support the collective growth of our sport, through shared time, guidance, and coaching

     

  • Help jumpers understand how competitive judging works and how competition in skydiving is fun

     

  • Offer structured coaching to sharpen skills before States and Nationals

     

  • And most of all: bring the WA skydiving family together

     

It’s a stepping stone. A no-pressure way to refine your flying, build team experience, and feel part of something bigger.

What’s Happening Over the Weekend?

The event runs September 5–7 at The Skydive School and includes:

  • 2-Way VFS

     

  • 4-Way FS

     

  • 2-Way Belly

     

  • Speed Skydiving

     

There’ll be coaching, catered meals, music and the chance to observe live judging to demystify how scoring actually works.

Why It Matters for the Future

This isn’t a one-off.

The Mock States are part of a bigger push to rebuild competitive culture in WA, from grassroots jumpers to high-end Ninjas chasing their next big challenge.

We want to:

  • Get more WA jumpers participating in state and national comps

     

  • Give coaches a platform to grow and pass on knowledge

     

  • Create events that matter, not just another boogie

     

And most importantly: keep WA skydiving alive and thriving, growing together.
