Meet Angel

Angel discovered skydiving in 2019 during a birthday jump—and was instantly hooked. Within a month, he was back in the air, and by 2020 he had earned his license. Today, with over 1,300 jumps, Angel is a Tandem, AFF, and IAD Instructor, as well as a Coach who brings both experience and passion to every jump. What keeps him coming back isn’t just the adrenaline—it’s the strong sense of community, the discipline, and the constant challenge of the sport.

When he’s not in the sky, Angel is a seasoned tattoo artist in the New Glarus area, with over 25 years of experience across a wide range of styles. He also serves his community as a volunteer firefighter and EMR. Originally from Mexico City, Angel takes great pride in his heritage and has a deep love for travel, culture, and especially great food—though Mexican cuisine will always be his favorite.

As an instructor, Angel is dedicated to helping others experience the thrill of skydiving safely and confidently. He enjoys traveling to different drop zones, meeting new people, and sharing unforgettable views from above.
