The GERONIMO! Skydiving Team is managed by professional exhibition skydiver and founding member, John Wallace. Team members are some of the most experienced and skilled civilian show jumpers in North America and are professionally credentialed in both Canada and the United States. As disciplined professionals, Team members are committed to performance excellence, safety, professionalism, and personal integrity. In addition to our high standards as performers we are dedicated to giving back to the community and strive to be role models for today’s youth.
In 1981 the Team was founded as a four man exhibition team with the goal of promoting the sport of skydiving and developing into the best civilian exhibition team in north America. Performance Excellence was adopted as the Team’s motto, as was the slogan of On Time – On Target. Within the next ten years the team progressed from performing for local community events to performing for large venue events nationally. In 1986 the Team introduced Tandem Exhibition Skydiving by delivering the NFL Philadelphia Eagles mascot “Swoop” into Veterans Stadium during a night Football game half time show.
The GERONIMO! Skydiving Team’s home base is conveniently located in Fort Erie, Ontario in the Niagara region to better serve both Canada and the United States. During the 2019 Canadian Skydiving National Championships the team earned the prestigious CSPA National Sportsmanship Award. After more than 40 years, the GERONIMO! Skydiving Team continues to thrill crowds throughout Canada and the United States show stopping performances.
