Cris grew up watching skydivers jump from his father’s helicopters at military clubs throughout the 1970s and dreamed of joining them in the air.

He has amassed over 5300 jumps, 74+ hours of free fall, and four FAI large formation world records, in addition to multiple state formation records. He is an active PRO demonstrator, AFF-I and tandem instructor who loves the sport more and more every day.
