Our Mission
To Inspire Women And Girls To Live Bold Brave Lives Of Their Own Design
HIGHLIGHT is an all-female professional skydiving demonstration jump team. Comprised of 13 of the best skydivers in the world, Highlight is a values-driven team working with aligned partners, using skydiving as a vehicle to elevate women and magnify messages that matter.
Our team started with the idea to do one jump commemorating the 100-year anniversary of women securing the right to vote in the United States, inspired by the tenacious women that made up that movement. This idea and inspiration grew into a full series of jumps and the team you see today.
