    Great experience. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous, but I never had a moment that I didn’t feel safe. Lots of communication and no surprises.

    One of the best experiences of my life. Surprisingly, minimal fear or anxieties accompanied me along the jump. The people who work at Piedmont Skydiving are all kind, exciting, and unique people who add to the experience rather than take from it. I jumped with Kai and throughout the jump from the time we took off in the plane, till we safely landed, the man was comforting and relaxed. Overall, I have to highly recommend skydiving and do so at Piedmont Skydiving.
