    First time sky diving at this location and I would definitely go again. They were extremely nice and made everything so easy. I had surprised my boyfriend with a jump (my third) and he had a blast as I did. The only con if I had to say one but not really one but past jumps the camera wasn’t held by myself they had an additional jumper that filmed everything. So I wasn’t very good at remembering that I was holding the camera so half of my pics and video was a close up of myself. But that was my own fault something I wasn’t use to not their fault but good to remember or know for future jumps. Would highly recommend this place the people here were just amazing . Thank you

    I'm 74 years old and did this with my two Grandson's. It was an absolutely AWESOME! I felt very safe....taken care of. My partner was so calm and shared how much he loved his job. I was never afraid. The 'ride' down, after a little rough patch, was so calm and quite. The scenery was awesome. And the landing was easy peasy! One hint for anyone with hearing aids. DON'T WEAR THEM! I lost mine up there. (I even have a picture of it flying out of my ear! - the photo pkg. is worth it!) Give it a 10+
