    This was the best experience of my life! The instructors are amazing and well informed, very hospitable and full of energy. It was hard to be nervous when they all stayed so positive and encouraging! I will be jumping again!

    The folks here are great. Everything is very casual. I never felt unsafe at all. I've been back again already and plan for many more jumps.

    I went skydiving on September 1st with a buddy of mine and it was AWESOME! We waited about 4 hours before we were allowed to take off and go for our dive due to bad weather but the wait was totally worth it! So glad that we finally got to go and we will be back again with more friends! Huge thanks to the instructors that went with us as they made us feel very comfortable and made the experience one of a kind!

    Absolutely amazing! Nothing else like it. Josh was my tandem jumper and he made me feel safe and comfortable the whole time. These people are professionals. I will absolutely make skydiving at Piedmont an annual adventure.
