ChutingStar is the largest skydiving gear retailer in the world. ChutingStar's headquarters in Marietta, GA, has become an international destination for skydivers from around the world who stop in to get the latest gear, try on all the new helmets and touch and feel everything before deciding what to buy. That store is backed by the progressive skydiving gear online site, ChutingStar.com, sporting the widest variety and largest stock of skydiving gear and related accessories worldwide. The Marietta location also is home to our Parachute Rigging Loft, sales crew and admin offices. The ChutingStar Rigging Loft is a training and testing center for those wanting to earn an FAA Senior or Master Parachute Rigger Certificate. The school is run by ChutingStar's Master and Senior Parachute Riggers. All testing is completed by the Atlanta's only FAA Designated Parachute Rigger Examiner, ChutingStar owner Mike Gruwell. Mike started the company in 1999, and it has grown from a one-man part time operation to an international superstore currently employing 7 people.
