Style is a speed exercise where it's a matter of achieving a series of movements ( turn - turn - back loop - turn - turn - back loop) as fast as possible. The turns are alternates : turn left - turn right or the other way around. This provides 4 possible jumps which are called the groups.

The style jumper leaves the plane at 2 000 meters and take a reduced position in order to be as effective as possible. Style is to be accomplished in a reduced position, keeping arms and legs close, in order to turn as fast as possible. Juges time the performance and occasionnally add some penalties when degrees of turns and plate are not correct.
