Fall Camp 2026 is officially underway!

What a crew to kick off the week with 💪🏻

We’re excited to be together at Skydive City ZHills for a week of flying, learning and pushing our skills. This year we’re growing the flock and introducing a MUTANT group into the mix and continuing to explore what’s possible under canopy, together.

Plenty of familiar faces, some new ones and a whole lot to look forward to!

We’re looking forward to getting everyone together for another great week of flocking!

Flocking isn’t just about small wings and high speeds 🤘

There’s no better time to start flocking than now!

Our annual Momentum Fall Camp is coming up, and it’s the perfect opportunity to try something new, meet some awesome people, and get an introduction to flocking in a safe, controlled environment.

You don’t need a tiny canopy. You don’t need to be flying fast. You just need to want to learn, fly with others, and have some fun doing it 🪂

Come flock with us! 🍂 Link to all events in our Bio 🔗

Welcome to “Meet the Team”. This edition holds a special place in all our hearts.

Our brother, Brandon.

Brandon was an integral part of Momentum. He’d been jumping for over 15 years both sport and military. One month ago we got to honor him with a memorial jump at Chicagoland Skydiving Center. His dedication and genuine interest in making Momentum what it is today will never be forgotten.
