First Time Skydiving
ABOUT SKYDIVE CHICAGO
Founded in the early 1980s, Skydive Chicago was built on a passion for parachuting and a drive to advance skydiving through innovative training and equipment. That vision helped shape one of the largest and most respected skydiving resorts in the world.
Today, Skydive Chicago welcomes everyone, from first-time jumpers and students earning their license to experienced skydivers refining their skills. With world-class instruction, a strong community, and thoughtfully designed amenities, every visit is an opportunity to learn, grow, and feel part of something bigger.
Skydiving at Skydive Chicago is more than a thrill. It’s a perspective shift. A moment of freedom, clarity, and accomplishment that stays with you long after you land. It’s not just an activity. It’s a lifelong memory.
