The 2013 Open Free Fly competition is spread over two days with practice and speed setting taking place on Thursday the 4th of April. The Free Fly competition consists of nine rounds', three 'Compulsory rounds' and six 'Free rounds'.
Free Rounds
This is when the teams of two people perform artistic choreographed routines in the air, using the full space of the tunnel. Free routines are judged on originality, choreography, difficulty, aesthetic value and presentation.
Compulsory Rounds
This is similar in format to the formation skydiving discipline, in that the competitors are given a set of five manouvers (Randoms) which they need to complete and repeat as many times as they can in 60 seconds. These randoms are a mixture of head up and head down orientations.

There is a massive prize fund of £3000 for the winners of the Open FreeFly category this year. The prizes are allocated as such:
- 1st place: £1500
- 2nd place: £1000
