“A must experience”

Reviewed February 17, 2012 NEW

Was very well taken care of during this experience. Stunning scenery from 13k feet!! Words can't explain the feeling as you jump out of a plane. Make sure you talk to your tandem-pro about spinning or not spinning during freefall, and bring your camera up there with you!! More

“Great entertainment”

Reviewed January 24, 2012

To be honest we didn't have the courage to do any jumps, although it looked like a well run operation,but boy did we have some fun watching. Driving past we saw activities going on, so stopped for 5 minutes, ended up staying for more than an hour, watching planes and people taking off, jumps, landing etc. If you have some... More

“very professional”

Reviewed January 18, 2012

From start to finish the company are very thorough. They know how to calm your nerves and it's really obvious they are highly experienced and good at what they do. When the chute was pulled it felt gentle and didnt pull. The first few seconds of the jump is the best! ..so thrilling and dont close your eyes, the view... More

I did this skydive on a Topdeck trip in July from 16500 ft and it was insane. Glad I did it, when the parashute opens you get an amazing view! It was winter as well so got to see the snow capped mountains. Definitely get the dvd and pics, expensive but worth it there amazing. My only tip would be... More

“One of "the" spots in the world to go skydiving!”

Reviewed June 13, 2011

We jumped from 16,500 ft. Their team is fantastic, makes one feel welcome and very safe. The experience to jump from 16,500 is incomparable. Take the whole video package and enjoy the views from their terrace while they prepare your video. The expense is totally worth it to have the memory! More
