This weekend the USPA board of directors gathered in San Diego, CA for their winter meeting.  One of the items placed before the competition committee was a proposal from Skydive City in Zephyrhills Florida for the 2013 USPA National Championships of Canopy Piloting.  After review of the proposal the bid was approved.

Skydive City has been host to numerous canopy piloting competitions over the past years.  Their new pond expansion has made them one of the premier CP venues in the US.

The bid offered the month of May 2013 for the event to be held.  Exact dates will be provided in the coming weeks by Skydive City.  This time of year offers the lowest rain fall, lightest winds, and best weather potential in central Florida.  It will also make their nationals the selection for the 2013 World Cup to be held in Russia in August 2013.
