Team Fastrax™
America’s Skydiving Team
Professional. Ambitious. Revered.
What started as a fun side-project has grown into the largest professional parachute demonstration team in the world! Team Fastrax™ professional skydiving team could train anywhere but they choose to not only continue to call Start Skydiving home but also to further the sport by offering free load organizing and coaching at the DZ!
About The Team
Established in 2002, Team Fastrax™ currently has more than 40 active members, many are internationally celebrated and veterans of the Armed Forces. Collectively, they have more than 175,000 skydives.
The Team has performed thousands of exhibition jumps into highly-restricted airspace and into a number of countries, including in Russia, Qatar, China, France, and over Ground Zero on 9/11 in New York City, the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., Independence Hall in Philadelphia, PA, and over the Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
Team Fastrax™ Shows
If the FAA will allow it, Team Fastrax™ is most likely down to try it! They frequently jump with flags, banners, pyrotechnics and smoke – and often jump in mascot costumes, franchise uniforms, or with game balls! They also showcase canopy formations and wingsuiting marvels.

Night Pyrotechnic Show
Team Fastrax™ can fly in formation, launch projectiles, or perform a hi-tech pyrotechnic display that looks like a falling meteorite! Absolutely breathtaking!

Colorful smoke and visible fireworks combined with formation skydiving makes for spectacular daytime exhibitions! These shows are a fan favorite!

Canopy Formations

Wingsuiters in flight are so much fun to watch – and they’re perhaps equally as intriguing once they’ve landed and you get a sense of how in the world they accomplished their feat!
