Awesome weekend at @britishskydiving VFS Nationals. Gold 🥇with a new Advanced VFS record of 30 points (with an overall average of 17.6).
A huge thanks to our sponsors, especially @skydivelangar, for keeping us in the sky and allowing us to smash the jumps this year.

Awesome weekend at @skydivenetheravon for @britishskydiving Artistic Nationals. Pretty happy with our free routine considering we only did 2 training jumps 😂🪂

31.08.2026 | 39-way UK Head-Down Record

It’s official!

We had all the odds stacked against us this weekend:
- Challenging weather
- A bunch of illnesses
- No Twin Otter (stuck in France due to weather)
- Altitude restrictions

But we managed 6 attempts… and we did it 🎉

Massive thank you to @skydivelangar for their incredible support throughout the year, always accommodating our needs and allowing us to run events in the UK at very reasonable prices. And to pilots @j0be_1 , @gilmore_ben , @gdtho.mas , and Dave for their consistent, tight formation flying.

Thanks to the UK Vertical organisers who have put a bunch of time into all of this, running a camp a month from March to build up the team and engineering the record formation to build from 3 caravans from ~14,500ft: @mafull @greglucas1 @martinjroberson @esharp.22 , and in particular @danguest1 who dropped out of the formation today to fly camera.

To @alexthepotter55 from @caelumsystems for providing SkyTraX units for all flyers so we could nerd out on data visualisations and ultimately improve build efficiency and break-off safety.

To @chantalalice_ for judging the record and making it official after a long weekend at FS nationals.

And thank you to all the participants, turning up on day 1 with an appalling weather forecast and persisting through the 3 days with great attitudes and safe flying. Everyone’s put in a lot of work and progression this year, and it’s paid off 🎉

UK vertical flying is back in business.

Tomorrow I’ll be attempting to run the Valencia Marathon 2025. I am raising money for Cots for Tots - a charity very close to my heart after my niece Penelope was born premature a few weeks ago. Any donation - big or small - would mean a great deal. Thank you for the support. Link in bio by @esharp.22

Today is World Prematurity Day. #worldprematurityday

In just a few weeks, I’ll be (reluctantly!) taking on the Valencia Marathon. I’m now running for a cause that has suddenly become very close to my heart.

A few days ago, my niece was born prematurely and had to be rushed to Bristol Hospital for emergency treatment. Cots for Tots is a charity that supports premature babies and their families, providing lifesaving care when it’s needed most.

Any donation—big or small—would mean a great deal. Thank you so much for your support. Please find the fundraising link in my bio!

Thanks so much! #cotsfortots #marathon #running #allontheboard by @esharp.22

From mountain trails to waterfall swims, tiny frogs, and beach beers… 🍻

Albania, you outdid yourself. 🇦🇱

P.s. I called the dog Shelly and I wish I took her home with me 🐕

Almost 10 months since my last jump due to a freefall collision last year. Injections, surgery and a lot of physio later - finally back to jumping (belly flying for the moment!) Great to be back! Thank you to all those who have given me support and helped me over the past few months. Especially the sparkling boyfriend @martinjroberson, my wonderful support network - especially @hannahnicoleparker and @joepro1, and a big thanks to @mattd8b for answering all my physio and recovery questions!! #skydiving #skydivelangar #bellyflying #deemflywear #cookiehelmets #uptvector taken in Skydive Langar by @esharp.22
