    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. ❤️

    We went with 6 of us & let me tell you the whole experience was amazing! The staff is incredible & they all make you feel so comfortable! I had Kye. He was amazing and made sure to reassure me that I was going to be fine. Thank you Piedmont skydiving! It was a blast.

    I've jumped with these guys 5 times, and every one has been a fantastic experience. It's obvious they love their work and they love working with people. I'll keep going back every chance I get!
