A little bit about our history
At some point you might wonder, where did it all begin? Skydiving is in our blood. It all started in 1969. Exposure to airplanes skydiving and life growing up around airports is hard to explain. Especially to someone that has never been in that type of an environment. While skydiving is considering extreme sport it is actually very peaceful experience.
Most of our skydiving students would say it is not what we expected or it how we imagined it.
