    I was an AFF transfer student, I was so nervous to switch dropzones. Mel answering my anxious Facebook messages and being the first smiling face to give me direction and leading me to the amazing AFFi Michelle every experience has been amazing! Piedmont is now family!!

    Absolutely incredible!!! My dad decided he wanted to go skydiving for his 60th birthday so we had a group of friends and family for the jump. The whole staff was helpful and friendly. My husband and I both had Matt as our jump partner and he was AWESOME! Super personable and funny. It’s very clear he loves what he does and he is so good at putting newbies (like me) at ease. He made it easy for me to put my trust in him. Hands down one of the best experiences of my life!

    Absolutely exhilarating - wow! Took the time to talk me through the process, what to expect, so I was not at all anxious. Highly recommend Piedmont Skydiving!
