“This place is awesome, and continues to see improvements under the new ownership! As a sport jumper, I appreciate the safety culture and passion for the sport that the whole crew at Skydown upholds. I’ve brought quite a few friends out here to make their first tandem skydives, and their smiles have said it all. The staff makes everyone feel welcome and they all put a lot of love and effort into what they do!”

“I have always been very scared of heights, but knew that skydiving was inevitable for me to try one day. I am so glad that I gave my first try with Skydive Skydown and I ended up having more fun than fear, because their knowledge and expertise made me feel comfortable enough to focus more on the fun. Everyone working and participating that day made me feel instantly part of the community and welcomed any curiosity I had.”

“They were great. I went with a group of people so we were there for a while but we had a great time "tailgateing" at the landing zone watching for our group. The instructor was awesome and I felt very safe the whole time. Would recommend”
