Have Santa skydive into your shopping area.

Start your event in skydiving high style, ![]() Deliver the game ball via parachute. |

We fly directly to your event from the Hazleton Municipal Airport, and our ground crew will generally arrive approximately a half hour prior to the skydive. Upon arrival, they will get together with your point person. When the skydiving aircraft flies overhead, they will establish contact with the demonstration skydiving team. The first item you will see out of the aircraft is a wind drift indicator to assure the precise exit point necessary for an on target landing. As the wind drift indicator floats to the ground, the skydiving aircraft will make graceful circles around your event as it climbs to its mile high jump altitude. Then the door comes open and out plunge the skydivers into the wild blue. Their descent will take between three and five minutes depending upon how long they freefall before unfurling their colorful parachutes. Their death defying descent will hold the spectators in awe as they touch down on your target area. The performers will pack up their parachutes as the spectators watch and will gladly answer any questions that the spectators may have. Highly experienced professionals that hold an expert skydiver's license staff our demonstration skydiving team.Insurance Coverage:
All you have to do is plan the event. Above the Poconos Skydivers/NEPA Ripcords, Inc takes care of arranging for up to a $5 million dollar insurance policy that has you listed as an insured party. They also take care of all of the required Federal Aviation Administration forms and/or approvals prior to the event (some permits/waivers require thirty days notice, so try to plan well in advance).How do I go about arranging this?
What about the weather?First inspect the site that you would like us to land and make sure that it meets the insurance requirements of at least 5000 square feet open area, and allow the jumper to fly under canopy no lower than 50 feet above the crowd and land no closer than 15 feet from the crowd line. If you believe that your landing zone is acceptable, call us at 1-888-654-7529 (PLAY) and let us know about your event and check to see if we have the date and time that you desire available.
Because skydiving is extremely weather related, we must have your phone number at the jump site for the day of the jump. If the weather does not permit the skydive, we will call and notify you as soon as possible on that day. You may reschedule the skydiving exhibition for a mutually acceptable, preselected, alternate date.
