Author name: Chad Ross

Chad Ross is a humble, low-key, modest, 20 year professional Sky God. His accolades include traveling the world representing the United States in the magical art of competitive Free Fly. He has 7 world records in various forms of vertical hand holding. If you see him wearing flip flops on a skydive, don’t worry; he’s not using rubber bands to hold them on. Because that is cheating. All in all, Chad enjoys skydiving. He loves the community, and he tolerates grumpy tandem masters, because he is one. Sometimes. Sponsors include: SSK, JYRO, UPT
