At just 16 years old, Annabella-Angel has already dedicated much of her life to indoor skydiving, a sport that has taken her from learning to fly for the first time to earning the opportunity to represent Australia on the world stage. What started as a passion has grown into something much bigger. Annabella-Angel has spent years training, competing and constantly pushing herself to improve. She recently achieved an incredible milestone, finishing 4th overall and 1st Australian in Junior Open Freestyle, earning her place at the World Championships in Germany in 2027. For Annabella-Angel, qualifying for Worlds isn’t simply about competing. It represents years of hard work, commitment and countless hours in the tunnel, and the chance to compete against some of the best young flyers in the world. But one of the things that makes Annabella-Angel’s journey particularly special is that she is already giving back to the sport she loves. At just 16, Annabella has also become a coach for the Junior Flight School, helping younger children discover the same excitement and freedom that first drew her to indoor skydiving. She has gone from being a young flyer learning the sport herself in flight school to becoming someone younger athletes can look up to and learn from. Now, she wants to show those young flyers that there are no limits to what they can dream of. Annabella-Angel hopes that by setting herself the goal of competing at a World Championship, she can inspire her students to set big goals of their own, to believe in themselves, work hard and never decide that something is too big or too far out of reach. She wants the kids she coaches to look at her journey and think, “If she can dream that big, maybe I can too.” Now, her focus is on preparing for Worlds. Competing internationally at this level requires a huge amount of preparation, particularly additional tunnel time to continue developing her skills and refining her routines. Tunnel time is $690 per hourCoaching is an added $300 per hour For a young Australian athlete, the costs involved in training, travel and competing internationally can be significant. We are raising funds to help Annabella-Angel access the training and support she needs as she prepares to represent Australia at the World Championships in Germany. Every donation, no matter the size, will help give Annabella more opportunities to train, develop and arrive at Worlds as prepared as she can possibly be. This is a huge opportunity for a young Australian indoor skydiver and we’d love for you to be part of Annabella-Angels journey. Help Annabella take flight, chase a big dream and represent Australia on the world stage. And perhaps most importantly, help her show the next generation of young flyers that there really are no limits to how high they can aim.
