High-altitude skydiving, notably HALO (High Altitude Low Opening) and HAHO (High Altitude High Opening), involves jumping from high altitudes (typically 15,000 to 35,000 feet) and deploying the parachute at a low altitude, allowing for a rapid descent and minimal exposure. HAHO, however, requires opening the parachute shortly after the jump at high altitudes, enabling extended horizontal travel and stealthy infiltration. One of the most remarkable achievements in this field was set on September 28, 2023, when a team led by private astronaut Larry Connor performed the highest HALO formation skydive from an altitude of 38,139 feet (11,625 meters) over Roswell, New Mexico.

 

A very limited number of dropzones offer HALO jumps so check in advance!

FICOR Score

(Fatality & Injury Classification of Risk)

Discipline : Tandem
Discipline : Individual

FICOR score is based on XDGE's proprietary scoring system

This FICOR score is based on available data combined with XDGE's proprietary scoring system which weights, Insurance scores, reaction time available as adverse event unfolds, speed, height, depth, technical difficulty, ability to mitigate risk during activity, backup equipment, other participants, location of activity, mental focus required, result of most mishaps, and the likelihood of major accident if sport done frequently.
