Their family owned Ripcord West Parachute Center, serving the St. Louis area during the seventies and eighties. Jim and Scott both started skydiving at the age of 16 and are now licensed, expert skydivers and instructors with more than 40 years experience and over 13,000 jumps between them. In addition, Jim and Scott are members of the United States Parachute Team and have won four World Championships and countless National Championships since 1990.
