    On June 15, 2022 Me and a couple of friends decided to go skydiving at Piedmont. This trip would make my second and the first for a few of my other friends and by the time we landed we all had the same thought process..LETS DO IT AGAIN. The Piedmont Skydiving team was excellent, they took care of all of our need from brand new to experience they handled every task simply and effectively. Darcy was amazing to jump with and I intend on coming back to jump with him again soon.

    The staff at Piedmont Skydiving are amazing. They made the entire experience anxiety free and fun. Being afraid of heights (like a lot of people) I was a little apprehensive to just jump out of a perfectly good airplane, but the instruction and fun atmosphere calmed my nerves. I jumped with my daughter who had just turned 18 and she said several times during and after the jump how much she enjoyed her instructor Mike. He was hilarious! My instructor Andrew was fantastic as well. Both of these guys made us feel completely relaxed and in control. And when the moment came, they helped us keep our heads on straight and enjoy the moment. We bought two more before we left!! Can’t wait to go back!!

    Amazing experience! The staff is so much fun! Our group of 4 was postponed 2 hours due to fog and we had to wait an additional hour after that before our jump - but it was a busy Saturday. I highly recommend Piedmont Skydiving and I will certainly return when I can!

    First time Jumper! Wait no more, today is your day and this is the team to work with! I jumped with instructor Derek, he and all of the instructors were laid back, made jokes and his mere presence assured me it was all going to be fine. I was given instructions for the jump and was always mentally prepared. But more importantly, your first jump is for fun, you have a trained, certified, professional who has your back.....literally. They focus on safety, you focus on thrill. Get pictures and video, they help to remind you and others, how awesome you are! Would I do it again? I went back the next day!
