Electric Dance Paratrooper has seen a major refurbishment over the past few years since it was purchased by Brooklyn Beech in 2020. Some of the changes are more noticeable than others, such as the change of name from SkyFall and the colour theme of the ride. Brooklyn is the 12th operator of the machine since it was built by Bennetts and given its debut by Joe Cogger in March 1994. Later in the same year, Joe sold the ride to Sam Crow, who hardly had time to present the ride before Billy Crow purchased it in April 2025. Further owners in its history after Billy sold it in March 1980 were Spanish City Amusement Park in Whitley Bay between 1980 & 1985, Seaburn Fun Park, 1986 to 1996, Duggie Beach, 1997 - 1998, Freddie Ward & Gordon Thompson, 1999 - 2003, Freddie Ward(Sole ownership) from March 2003 up until April 2005, followed by Ross Keyes up untill 2007. The ride left the UK in 2007 and went to Ireland, where it had 3 different owners; these were Warner Wilders 2008 - March 2010, James Finnie March 2010 - January 2013 and Jake McFadden January 2013 until 2019.
