Looking to progress in the sport? The following coaches are based year-round at Skydive Algarve and are available for one-on-one beginner to intermediate coaching in FS, FF and tracking. Contact us to info@skydivealgarve.com for more information and to book!

CARLOS ALVES

Carlos started skydiving in 2013 and has been working at Skydive Algarve since 2017. With a past of photography and video editing, he can offer camera and editing coaching. He is a USPA coach but would much prefer the term “Professional Fun Jumper” – Carlos is available for 1-on-1 coaching on the first steps of flying safely in the sky in FS, FF and tracking.

Billy Payn

Billy is from UK, has been jumping for 23 years and has a passion for Formation skydiving, having competed in 4, 8 and 16 way and been a regular on the European bigway scene for many years. Billy enjoys coaching and organising, helping people improve their skydiving skills, and watching their confidence grow. Billy has a depth of knowledge of all the skills needed to be a consistent all round formation skydiver, and has the ability to put together skydives that challenge, are fun and safe.

Eduardo Sousa

Eduardo started his skydiving career packing for the Portuguese Paratroopers back in 2009 and has wanted to work in the sport ever since. After finishing his AFF course in 2016, he quickly realised he had a special passion for Formation skydiving. In 2017 he started working at Skydive Algarve where he developed his FS skills with world renowned skydiving legends like Billy Payn and Siân Stokes. After a lot of training, the next logical step would be getting his FS coach rating, so he can now follow the steps of his mentors and pass on this passion of his to other jumpers!
