I do not think there is one. From time to time, you get skydivers who quit the sport due to the fear element, but that is usually when they are learning how to skydive and only have a few jumps.
In terms of a full blown phobia, where someone cannot be near another skydiver or watch it on TV, that I have never heard of.
