History:
Skydive Kansas City was opened in May 1998. By Chris & John Hall. John started skydiving in 1973 and has witnessed the industry go from old military round parachutes to todays modern Ram-air canopies. John has been known in the KC area for years as one of the best demonstration jump skydivers in the area making jumps all over the metro since the early 70's. Chris started skydiving at the age of 18 and has since traveled the country with his expert skills in freefall photography and even competed in the ESPN X games Pro Tour in 1996. With a combination of over 7000 jumps between the two of them you have a family and staff that is committed to offering the very best first jump with years of experience and dedication allowing you the customer the very best possible experience in the sky.
