No, we skydivers cannot get in air through our mouth in freefall but we are going so fast that the air is forced in through our pores and we breathe through our skin.
Do you skydive naked? If not, shouldn't you to get the maximum air breathed?

I have not yet skydived (skydove?) naked, but I am planning to for a milestone jump very soon.

Just roll over on your back and that will mean you are breathing in a tailwind. All should work fine.

It's very very difficult, so yes, you get less oxygen.
This is, in fact, the reason why skydivers use parachutes - if you freefall for too long you will suffocate.
Thats some good info I thought skydivers used parachutes to avoid the sudden stop at the end of a skydive. Thanks for clearing that up bro.

You don't need a parachute to skydive, you only need a parachute to skydive twice.
