We are the marketplace for skydivers
We got tired of the way skydivers buy and sell gear. Facebook posts that drown in days, no way to search properly, and the constant risk of getting scammed.

Our Team
We started Avento because we were tired of the way skydivers trade gear online. Not finding anything, scams everywhere and most just sitting on their closet queen because the hassle is too big.
Lean Stein
St. Gallen, SwitzerlandLean started jumping when he was on exchange in Thailand. Now mainly in Hohenems, Austria. Next to Avento and skydiving he desperately tries to finally finish his bachelor in Economics. He is the king of all-nighters and has a very questionable sleep rythm.
Tim Vietze
St. Gallen, SwitzerlandTim likes the outdoors, always being busy with something and sidequests. He is doing his Masters in Business Innovation next to Avento and other than Lean, he likes early mornings.
How we help you
Buyers
Escrow Payments
With our escrow payments, your money stays safe in our escrow account until you have received the gear and brought it to your rigger for inspection.
Specific Filters
Search by canopy size, container model, jump number and hundreds of other properties. Find exactly what you need instead of scrolling through hundreds of Facebook posts.
Sellers
Visibility of Listing
Your listing reaches buyers actually searching for your exact gear. We promote it across our network, Google Shopping, socials and ads, all for free to you.
Trust from Buyers
Escrow payments mean buyers feel safe purchasing from you, even across borders. No more back-and-forth agreeing on how to wire the payment.
