    Third time diving and the experience is better with each and every jump - Andrew and JK are incredible jumpers - HIGHLY recommended for your family as well as a team building exercise!! None better than Nicki in the office as well...takes the time to answer any questions and is always quick to return a call if away.

    We had the greatest experience. My mom and I enjoyed our first skydive. We had a wonderful group on our flight. The instructors kept us entertained and laughing. Other staff members were very helpful.

    Kyle was an awesome instructor and shared so much knowledge of the area while we were in flight as well! Can’t wait to jump again in the fall when the leaves are their most colorful.
