I went to Skydiving Buckeye today for my first tandem jump. This was a gift from my wife for my 76th birthday. What a great group of people. They did everything to make this a positive experience. If you ever reach a point in your life where you want to throw yourself out of a perfectly good airplane these are the people you want to do it with. I will most likely be a return customer. read more

Had the best time of my life. It was a birthday well spent! I loved the energy and environment from all staff, hella chill people. Looking forward to going back and doing the 14,000 jump. Thanks for an AWESOME experience read more

Fun jumper review: Heard about this Dropzone but never took the time to visit until my friend said he was going to be out helping instruct a few AFF jumps. Shane and Melissa own the dropzone and work together to run the show. I've interacted with Shane on a few unrelated phone calls. I found him to be professional and his communication was direct leaving no questions as to what was going on. The day I went out, it was about an hour drive from the northeast corner of the 101 loop with minimal traffic. When I arrived I found plenty of parking around the hangar so I turned off the car, grabbed my gear, and walked up to the open hangar door where I was greeted by a few stranger's friendly faces and greetings. I observed some people packing parachutes, others were going over their next jump, and I saw one child running around playing joyfully with a dog or two. I met Melissa first in the office space. I showed her my credentials and we talked about what I was looking to do for the day, the equipment I would be jumping with, and offered me a cold water. I needed a new logbook and googles and sure enough they had a supply of both. I was happy about that. Melissa said the load number I was on and I went back into the hangar space. Going into the hangar again I appreciated the open floor plan. Looking into the hangar from where the big door in front would open there is a ping pong table, refrigerators, couches and a TV in the back. Equipment/rigs hanging on organized supports on the left. There are some couches and the office door on the right. The middle is open to pack up your parachute or do whatever else needed. The whole hangar is carpeted and seemed to be vacuumed. Bathrooms were also nicely pained and fully stocked with soap and papers. The open floor plan allows for a nice community feel, especially when everyone is talking to each other having a good time. The plane was a Cessna sized for 4 jumpers and the pilot. The airport is well maintained and the plane ride up was smooth and scenic on each of my three jumps. We went up to 10,000ft Above Ground Level. Spotting the airport before the jump is easy since the runway is quite big and it stands out in contrast to the surrounding green fields. Freefall is the same, cross checking your location relative to the airport is easy since it is so visible. Canopy work is free since the small number of jumpers in the air but it's always smart to set a predictable landing pattern into the wind. There is a wind sock located in immediate view of the landing area and there are other flags and wind socks located around to judge the winds to set up the approach. The landing area is somewhat groomed pebble gravel. The landing area is large, plenty of options when it comes to deciding how to enter and finish. If you start landing in the outlier areas there are some dirt buildups about 14-16 inches in rows and there is a huge cool warplane off behind the landing area that I'd consider an obstacle for a new canopy pilot. There were 2-3 tandems on the day I went. After inspecting some gear hanging on the racks I came to the conclusion that everything was well maintained. The colors on the containers were not faded, the flaps weren't bent out of shape, the lines on opened parachutes weren't compromised, and much more that I won't list. Let's just say I would be happy to ride tandem after the inspection. After I settled up for the jumps there were a few of us chatting and Shane offered us beers. That was a great way to end the day. This drop zone provided excellent service. I believe it has the right couple who own and operate it to capture more of the fun jumper market. I was welcomed openly and the day only brought uplifting vibes from new friends, especially when I did show up pretty unexpectedly first as a new face. Thank you Shane and Melissa for such an awesome day. You will see me again! Blue Skies. read more

This is my first time jumping and def won't be the last time... the staff makes you feel safe from when you first walk in to your jump to when you land... great feeling. The staff is well experienced with over 9 thousand jumps looking forward to my next jump read more

This was such an amazing experience! My friend took me here for my birthday and it was our first time sky diving. Of course we were VERY nervous but the staff made us feel very secure and made sure we were prepared. We got there at 10AM, signed all the documents. We maybe had to wait an hour and a half before it was our turn so we sat there dying of anxiety. Once it was our turn to go, I was as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs!!!! I have to say this experience was AMAZING! I jumped with Daniel and he was keeping my friend and I laughing the entire time and he answered any questions that we had. Highly recommend paying to get the video and have those funny/super unflattering memories we jumped at 10,000 feet and had the option to change to 14,000 ft for $30 more but we were first timers, I'd probably add it next time i go. If you have doubts, just do it! One more thing off the bucket list. Thanks Daniel and Buckeye skydive! read more

What a wonderful experience from the moment I stepped in the door, to the moment "stepping" out of the plane. The staff was so friendly and engaging. They made you feel part of their circle. I legit wish I could be friends with them!! The instructors were extremely knowledgeable and make you feel at ease. I had Friday as my instructor, his main goal was that I was safe and I enjoyed the moment, what more could you ask for in skydiving? I will be back!! read more

Had a great experience with all the interactions with Skydive Buckeye. Had a little bit of confusion finding the place since there are two skydive hangars on the same road, but only one Skydive Buckeye. The staff was awesome & accommodating.
