NEXT GEN Spotlight: Emma & Gabriel
Emma (14) and Gabriel (12) are members of the CFH NEXT GEN Dynamic Indoor Skydiving Team, developed and supported through Children of Fallen Heroes’ youth leadership and high-performance training programs.
What began as an introductory class grew into national and international competition through disciplined training, mentorship, and teamwork. A key part of their development has been training under elite coach Mike of Aero Human Dynamics at iFLY Virginia Beach—a national gold champion whose expertise has helped refine their technical skill, discipline, and competitive mindset.
This training pathway also reflects the deeper legacy behind CFH’s mission. Virginia Beach is where Ken’s father is laid to rest and where Ken spent much of his childhood—creating a meaningful connection between past sacrifice and future opportunity.
Their achievements include:
• 2024 Dynamic Junior National Champions — 🥇 Gold
• 2025 Dynamic Junior World Championships — 🥈 Silver
• 2025 Dynamic Junior National Champions — 🥇 Gold
Representing Children of Fallen Heroes on the national and world stage, Emma and Gabriel exemplify what is possible when opportunity meets commitment.
Their journey reflects CFH NEXT GEN’s mission: turning access into achievement and potential into leadership.
