How to Relax Before (or After) Your First Skydive

Jul 28, 2019

If you’re feeling pre-jump jitters (or you’ve got the bouncy-bounce of victory in your step), you probably want to know the best local secrets to get ‘em out. Lucky you! There’s plenty around piedmont skydiving to work that wiggle. Enjoy!

Even on a 48 degree cloudy day, they still made this the best day of my life!!!! I would advise you they have port-a-potties and no indoor hangout area in case you were trying to skydive on off peak seasons, this is what you should expect! I’m definitely skydiving again with them in the summer!

My first jump ever and it was amazing! We had a miscommunication with my video that I didn't receive but I got a full refund for that. I understand things happen, but they were super nice about it. Other than that, everything else went smooth. My instructor Derek made me feel very safe and made everything awesome! Super stoked about planning another jump soon!! I would recommend this place to anyone! Thanks for giving me memories that will last a lifetime Piedmont!!

Absolutely amazing experience, if you are thinking about doing it, just go. It's hard to describe the experience in words but it is not like anything else. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend and would do again.

This was my first time skydiving. My experience with Piedmont Skydiving was nothing but amazing! It's hard to find words to describe how fun this first skydive was! My tandem buddy, Josh explained everything and made sure my experience was outstanding and all captured on video!!! My husband and I have already booked our second jump!!! Thank you to all the staff at Piedmont Skydiving for making this experience one I'll never forget!!!

I highly recommend Piedmont Skydiving for your first skydiving experience. They are efficient and professional. The checkin process was fast. My tandem partner was Kai. He was amazing, making me feel at ease and excited for my first skydiving experience. I bought the video/picture package and was very pleased. I’m 58 years old and I got to check skydiving off of my bucket list! As soon as I landed, I signed up for another tandem jump. ❤️
