    These guys were the coolest of cats we met in a long time! Made an unforgettable situation in so many way comfortable and fun. Great mind blowing, clearing and someting everyone should experience. These guys have had 6000 to 10000 jumps and 2 back up chutes so why not try it at least once. Some I will enjoy talking about for a long time!

    I'm 70 years old and I recently made my first jump. I can't say enough good things about Piedmont Skydiving in Salisbury. There is a great camaraderie among all the staff. They are all knowledgeable and friendly. Everyone's safety is the primary concern. I was very comfortable with my instructor/tandem jumper, Allen. He was very patient and his instructions were easy to understand. The managers went above and beyond to make sure my husband, who retired from the 82nd Airborne, was able to watch all of our group landings. I would encourage anyone who has thought about skydiving to go for it. It's a thrill you'll never forget!

    Piedmont Skydiving was accommodating with having to reschedule my jump due to a work meeting that got scheduled. They also let us know the day before that we were going to be delayed due to weather, so we could show up later. It was our first time jumping, and the instructors were great and made sure everything was fun and lighthearted to keep our anxiety down. I’d highly recommend Piedmont Skydiving if you’re interested in this adrenaline inducing bucket list item!
