    This was my first time skydiving and it was amazing! I was pretty nervous at first, but Skye was so awesome and reassuring. I had the time of my life and I highly recommend that you go!

    This was such an AWESOME experience... there really aren't any words sufficient to explain the joy & freedom I felt. Thank you Kai for making this experience so much better with your corny jokes and fun nature. Thanks Piedmont Skydiving & Kai for helping me check one thing off of my bucket list!
