Objective: to complete as many scoring formations as possible within the working time, while correctly following the sequence for the round.

Teams: Each team has 4 members and a designated videographer who captures video evidence of each competition jump. An alternate member is also allowed.

Scoring: Judges review the video from each jump immediately after the team lands. They use electronic scoring systems to score the video while watching in real time. Each formation complete in the correct order is worth one point. If the team does not complete the formation, they do not get a point. If they skip a formation in the sequence, it is considered an Omission, which is worth negative 3 points.

Working Time: Time starts when any member of the team leaves the aircraft. This is the amount of time they have to score points. The working time for 4-way formation skydiving is 35 seconds.

Draw: The sequence of formations each team has to complete. Each round has a different sequence. All teams are doing the same draw for each round. This is chosen by a "draw from a hat" or an electronic draw generator before the start of competition.

Grip: consists of a handhold on an arm leg or foot of another jumper. As a minimum, a grip requires stationary contact.

Exit Altitude: 4-way formation skydiving teams exit the plane from 10,500 AGL.
Rounds: Each round has a separate draw. There are 10 rounds in 4-way Formation Skydiving.
