What a great experience! The entire staff was welcoming and made us feel like they were happy to have us there. My tandem instructor, Rogers made me feel comfortable and confident in his skills which made my first jump an incredible and memorable experience. I'm so happy I did it!
My friend and I took our boys who had just turned 18 to jump for their birthdays. This is an experience that they will always remember. The staff is very professional, and my instructor Chad was amazing. Chad calmed my nerves down as we were ascending into the air. We made a connection and when it was my time to jump out of the plane I knew that I would be taken care of. Thank you for the opportunity for us to make memories with our boys.
Professional organized staff as well as experienced and informative instructors who insure you know what to expect and check your equipment multiple times for safety. Shout out to the pilot for flying us up and instructor Tim for getting me on the ground safely today during my tandem experience!
Went when they had a discount!nnEasy to find location, friendly staff, and overall such a great experience (I’ve gone twice now).nnYou need a LOT of patience if it’s your first time. Expect to be there for a few hours as you will need to complete waivers, rewatch the safety video, pay and then wait for the actual departure time. Our booking was for 10am and we didn’t actually get to skydive until 2/3pm. Weather permitting and depending on how many other divers there are.nnIf it’s your first time I highly recommend getting the full video package as you WILL forget the experience since everything happens so quickly.nnBEST OF LUCK :)
I spent weeks trying to get a hold of someone on the phone about a skydive purchased that had to be used within a year. I never reached anyone. I finally had to just drive there, again, and hope to skydive. Now it is post my first tandem and I want to purchase my second tandem before signing up for classes to get my license, and again, I can't get a hold of someone to purchase my second skydive. It makes me really wonder if another drop zone is a better idea, since getting a hold of anyone has proven impossible. Also, the second tandem price online is stated at $129, while the price in the first tandem pamphlet is $149.nnAs far as the skydive itself, I felt very safe. The place is nice. But if you want to do a skydive, you just have to go there and plan on spending the day, and expect to be disappointed if the clouds do not cooperate. The experience is only positive by actually going there. Since I live over a two hour drive away, this very fact of only getting things done by having to go, such as even purchasing a second skydive, would eat four hours, because they can't seem to answer the phone. This lack of customer service seems to override the total experience.
