Since 2012, Sol discovered a new passion in her life quite unexpectedly. Initially, she had no intentions of adopting this lifestyle, but a tandem jump with her group of friends changed everything, and she instantly fell in love.

The very next week, she enrolled in the AFF course and relocated to San Diego to delve deeper into this thrilling world. With each passing day, her conviction grew stronger that she had made the right choice. Then, Sol returned to Brazil and met her husband, Paulo Perini, and together they embarked on intensive training, working with one-on-one coaches.

Her journey took her around the world as she participated in tunnel camps, an experience that played a pivotal role in her evolution as an athlete. In 2017, she had the honor of becoming the Brazilian Freefly champion alongside Paulo Perini, and she also achieved several Brazilian and South American head-down records.

Their journey led them to France in 2018, where she embraced the role of Load Organizer at various smaller events while also honing her skills as a coach.

Naturally, things fell into place, and before she knew it, she was fully immersed in the world she loved so dearly.

They returned to Brazil in 2021, and since then, she has been working full-time with skydiving and  the summer of 2023, she had become one of our Icarus Athletes.
