    Amazing jump with Scott at Piedmont Skydiving. Without Scott's encouragement and confidence I probably wouldn't have had such an incredible experience. What a rush! Excellent, professional staff. Everyone worked together to make sure we were safe and had a memorable time. Make sure to jump with Scott! He's the man!

    My review is long overdue but the Piedmont Skydiving crew deserves a mention! The team of people we dove with were fun, professional, and encouraging. I took my best friend for her birthday and she truly had the best time. We always felt safe with Piedmont and we felt comfortable and knew what to expect from the experience. We would recommend Piedmont Skydiving to anyone looking for a fun dive experience!

    OMG the best day of my life! Awesome awesome experience! Derek was who I jumped with and he made the experience one to never forget. I've told everyone about this and I plan on going back on a regular basis now. Very intense experience but very much worth the cost.

    Today was a day I will never forget. Piedmont Skydiving helped me fulfill a lifelong dream of skydiving. I drove 7+ hours from Ohio to do this and I was not disappointed. Everyone was very friendly and made me feel welcome. Skye was my instructor and he made me feel like I was a long lost friend. Skye, you are awesome! Thank you for making me feel so welcome and thank you for keeping us safe. I hope I see you again someday.
