    Best time ever! My brother and I went for our birthdays to Piedmont Skydiving and we could not have asked for a better experience. I was with Kai and personally think he is the best. I felt that he had plenty experience and a just a tad bit of crazy to make the best experience for the first time skydive. Great job Piedmont Skydiving and Kai for making my birthday unforgettable! Loved it!

    Anyone that has ever thought about jumping but just never done it like me, don't waist another minute....JUMP TRY IT !!! It's the most exciting, beautiful, thing you can do, the adrenaline rush is unbelievable you have to experience it for yourself. The staff and crew were amazing and made my first jump a breeze. Fell in love my first time so now I'm going to train to jump solo and get my own equipment,. Thanks Piedmont Skydiving for a great experience will be back asap

    I was a first time skydiver, I was very nervous about doing it, not going to lie the initial jump out of the plane was scary for me, but after that it was an amazing adventure. The staff was awesome as well. Loved it. Would definitely do it again. What a great experience.

    Had the most amazing experience Skydiving here at Piedmont Skydiving! Even though I am very scared of heights I wanted to challenge myself and see this through. Especially since this was a birthday gift! I had the best tandem instructor, Kyle Stubbs and felt safe the entire way back to the ground! Thanks guys for making this an incredible experience!
