Insructors

Chris Mort: D-30992, USPA Coach, Phoenix Fly Coach

Chris Mort started his skydiving career in South Africa in 2009. He immediately wanted to get into wingsuiting, and once he met the requirements he took a wingsuit course in Johannesburg which consisted of 5 jumps/levels which laid a solid foundation for the new discipline he was learning. Since then Chris has accumulated 800 skydives and 300 wingsuit jumps. Chris’s motivation to start wingsuit coaching was to give back to skydiving community and help assist new jumpers in taking the proper steps to safely fly a wingsuit. Wingsuiting and tracking have been the main focus of Chris’s skydiving/BASE career for the past two years. If you feel that wingsuiting is a goal that you would like to achieve, DC Wingsuit School can provide a structured safe way to enter the discipline.

 

Justin Miller: D-31589, USPA Coach, BASE# 1511

Justin Miller has been an avid skydiver since early 2009. With wingsuit BASE being a goal since day 1, Justin quickly progressed through his first 200 jumps concentrating primarily on tracking and canopy accuracy. Jump 201 was his First Flight Course and since that day Justin has accumulated over 350 wingsuit jumps and 150 BASE jumps all over the United States and Europe. Justin earned his BASE # (1511) in 2011, which he considers one of the greatest accomplishments in his life to date. Justin has also been a USPA coach since 2010 and has enjoyed teaching students working towards earning their A-License. When Justin isn’t flying through the sky in a wingsuit, he enjoys any other reason to get into the great outdoors, whether it’s hunting, fishing, riding motorcycles, flying ultralights or just relaxing by the bonfire with a nice frosty beverage.

About Whitney Payne

Co-Operations Manager at Skydive Orange - Working with Skydive Orange for 10+ years - Previously positions held: Office manager, manifest, guest services, social media manager, she does it all! “If you told be 10 years ago I’d be co-managing a skydiving facility and loving every minute of it, I would have laughed in your face. I am not an adrenaline junkie, not spontaneous and definitely not a thrill-seeker but I love these people. Skydivers are truly a different breed of people and I am forever thankful for them accepting me into their community. Watching people visit Skydive Orange to face fears, celebrate milestones or just jump out of a perfectly good airplane has been truly life changing for me and helped be become the person I am today.” – Whitney Payne
