Parachuting
Parachuting, or skydiving, is an activity involving a free-fall from a height using a parachute.
The history of skydiving began with a descent from a balloon by André-Jacques Garnerin in 1797.
Skydiving has been used by the military since the early 1900s, including use in World War I and World War II.
Early competitions date back to the 1930s, and it became an international sport in 1951.
Parachuting as a mass air sport activity in Croatia is achieving better results every year.
Croatian representation is in the world top in style and accuracy landing. On the 28. World Parachuting
Championship in classics u Rijeka in 2004., male classic parachuting representation won the silver medal
and Damir Sladetic became the world champion in accuracy landing.
On the 10. World Para-ski Championship in 2005. on Zabljak, male para-ski representation won the silver medal
and in single competition the bronze medal went to our representation member Igor Kecerin.
