Adam Ghannoum - Co-Founder
Adam brings two lifetimes of experience into one mission: preparing others for the kind of adventures that don’t come with safety nets.
As a Mechanical Engineer for the Department of the Army, an EMT-B and a member of Yuma County Sheriff’s Office - Search and Rescue Team, he has also spent the last 15 years instructing Tandem / Solo Skydiving and BASE jumping.
With over 2,500 skydives and almost 1000 BASE jumps, he has first hand experience attending to traumatic injuries, in some of the harshest and most remote terrain available. These experiences have highlighted what it means to rely on your gear, your training, and your grit.
His background in engineering gives him an eye for functionality and durability, while his experience in extreme sports fuels Dirt Nap’s philosophy of total readiness.
Adam doesn’t just build products—he builds lifelines. His value lies in knowing exactly what’s needed when things go sideways and crafting solutions that hold up when the plan didnt.
At Dirt Nap, he channels that precision and hard-earned wisdom into equipping fellow adventurers for the kind of journeys that test your limits and write your legacy.
