This year, Sebastian SkyDive brought 489 registered jumpers to Sebastian for their Invasion 2021 held December 28, 2021 – January 2, 2022. In addition, they provided up to 60 tandem jumps a day during the event.

Jumpers are attracted to the Invasion because they get to learn from world champion canopy coaches like Curt and Jeannie Bartholomew, who specialize in canopy piloting and swooping.

We asked Amanda Smalley, Manager of Skydive Sebastian, what she thought was the major attraction of SkyDive Sebastian.

“First, the location, our coastline, and ocean views are amazing, and also the weather in the winter months, which was fantastic for this year’s Invasion event,” Smalley told Sebastian Daily.
