VISITOR COMMENT

Hi, just wanted to say what an amazing time I had with my Skydive. Adrian was very professional, calm and funny . Which made me feel very safe . Rest of the guys were supportive, which did help as I think if there had just been me doing it I would’ve been more stressed. It was great having others chatting around me . Thanks for the experience and stay safe .

The DZ is amazing. Awesome plane which brings you to 14000 ft in the blink of an eye. Friendly staff who feel more like family.
