Jessica Bernstein discovered skydiving later in life, starting with a static line jump on her 30th birthday. In the 22 years since then, she has amassed a few thousand jumps, keeping it old school by focusing primarily on belly bigways. She holds several state FS records, and has participated in multiple world record events, including the still-standing Largest All-Female Sequential Formation in 2014. She may be the first person to have skydived after a Reverse Total Shoulder Replacement (definitely one of the first, anyway).
