Jeff Provenzano is one of the pioneers of the high-speed, high-stakes skydiving discipline of swooping. “It’s like driving a Ferrari as a parachute,” he says. Not only was Jeff the 2007 Overall Champion of the Professional Swooping Tour but, for four years running, he took the crown at the U.S. Pond Swoop Nationals.
His countless other honours include winning the Vertical Relative Work World Cup Championship and contributing to five world records. But what 'Jeffro' is best known for is his talent for inventing never-before-seen aerobatics, such as 'The Miracle Man' that’s been equated to pioneering the backflip in freestyle motocross.
