What jumpers are saying
- JJarhead SGT· a month ago
I cannot recommend more than 5 stars, but if I could I'd give 6. First time jumping (tandem), absolute professionals. Clear instructions (it's a lot for good reason!), compassion, enthusiasm and just an entire jump site of positivity. Also very, VERY high marks for the pilot (Fancy). He nailed every bit of the flight and worked his *** off all day, I hope he had a sandwich somewhere in the work! Aaron Farley (who strapped me to his chest as tandem) was an expert, communicated clearly and dear God **nailed** the landing. An absolute must go, even if you must suffer CT traffic to get there!!!! Oh and get the ultimate video package, without question. Awesome photos and video instantly on the deck and an amazing photographer who somehow does this while also falling through the sky.

I completed my first tandem jump today with Eric . Honestly this was the BEST experience I have ever experienced. The instructors at this location were great. The pilot was super down to earth and cool. I felt comfortable and confident with the abilities and safety from this team. I genuinely had a great experience and cannot WAIT to go back . Definitely considering becoming an AFF student in the near future. Thank you to everyone for making this a great experience.

What an amazing experience! My sisters and I went for the first time together, for her birthday and it was such a great experience. The entire crew there are awesome! Everyone was so welcoming, informative and supportive. We had Aaron, Erick and Ty as our instructors, they were all very knowledgeable and experienced. They made sure that we felt safe, triple checked all of our gear and were very thorough with explaining the procedures. This experience was life changing and we can't wait to go back.
