Our MissionPara Concepts is the Pro Shop at Skydive Chicago and much more. In our store, we can help you purchase everything from sunglasses to your first rig, or any skydiving related product at the industry's best prices while providing excellent service. In our state of the art rigging loft, we can maintain your equipment to the highest industry standards. We design and build custom parachute equipment for your exact needs, keeping up with the latest trends in skydiving. Check out our latest swoop accessories. We may not carry every product from every brand. Instead, we carefully evaluate the market and carry the best products from the best brands in skydiving. We are one of the few Argus Service Centers in North America. We can provide 4 year checks and other service to the Argus AAD. Para Concepts is the only official Icarus US Support Center, providing Linesets & Relines, Sliders, Repairs, and even Demos. We are now one of the largest Cookie Composites dealers in North America. We stock most of the Cookie products, including the very popular Black Boxes. We are doing our best to keep stock of new Ozone and Gas helmets, and we are keeping our web site updated to reflect our current stock. Of course, you can always order directly from Cookie in Australia. But, with our local stock, North American customers can usually get prompt shipping, while saving significantly on shipment costs. We have shown that we can coordinate the most complex aerial displays, for everything from company events to worldwide marketing campaigns. Whatever your needs, take advantage of our experience and innovative ideas. Our recent client, Clear!Blue won the Global Marketer Diamond Award for Best PR Marketing Campaign in the World for 2005. Despite other companies, including Skydive Chicago, trying to take credit, it was Para Concepts that engineered and coordinated the aerial parachute display, actually dropping a Jeep Commander from 1200 feet for a live marketing campain. The exit weight of the brand new Jeep and platform turned out to be, a staggering, 8000 pounds. When you need a complex, technically challenging event, come to Para Concepts. Despite what others might claim to offer, we have proven that we can deliver. We have the engineering and skydiving team to design the most complex aerial displays, and make your event successful, without question.. Last Updated - 1 Jul 2010 |
