    I went for my Birthday and had a awesome time. I highly recommend it. Instructor was informative and explained each part if you had any questions. Check in process was easy. I would do it again trying to get my wife to go if I do it again.

    Awesome experience. Be prepared to wait, arrival time is just that. Arrival time, but they make that pretty clear when booking. Kai was strapped to my back and he was an amazing guy!

    I had my first skydive ever with Piedmont Skydiving this morning and could not have asked for a better experience from start to finish. My instructor, Derek (and the entire team) made me feel comfortable and safe and I cannot wait for my next jump! I absolutely recommend Piedmont Skydiving for an awesome experience!

    Best experience I’ve ever had! My girlfriend and I went for her graduation and we both loved it. We are already planning our next skydiving trip. Staff was great!
