Richard Kuhns - Accuracy Landing - 2025 USPA National Championships

Full rules can be found here: https://www.uspa.org/SCM

Objective:
Accuracy Landing consists of competitors under parachute aiming to land on or as closely as possible to the center of a target.

Event:
Each round consists of individual competitors guiding their canopies to a precision landing on an Automatic Measuring Device
(AMD) with a two-centimeter-diameter (2 cm) dead-center target.
Each jump is made from 3,500 feet, which the Meet Director may lower to 2,800 feet for the whole round to negotiate weather.

Individual Accuracy Landing:
The minimum number of rounds to constitute a meet is one , and the maximum (scheduled) number
is ten.

Team Accuracy Landing:
The minimum number of rounds to constitute a meet is one, and the maximum (scheduled) number of
rounds is eight.

Scoring:
The landing point is the first point of body contact with the surface or the AMD. A landing off the AMD (or at the edge) or a disqualified jump is scored as 16 cm.
If, because of insufficient separation between team members, a competitor lands on the AMD before it has been reset, the score given is 15 cm.
Competitors landing off the AMD for any reason, including insufficient separation with their team members, will be given a score of 16 cm.

Judging and Recording:
Landings will be judged by at least three principal judges positioned around the target, who independently assess the landing.
The AMD must be repositioned immediately after the landing of any competitor who moves or covers its location.
After a landing, competitors must leave the target area immediately.
