    Ok. I did it! I mustered the courage and jumped out a plane from 12,000 feet in the air! My…read moregoodness. To say I was scared is an understatement. I only did it because I'm competitive and I'm no punk! Registration was easy -- I did it onsite with no issues. Once you pay, you sign a waiver and you're off. There really isn't a training session. They just tell you a few do's and dont's, give you your harness and that's it. One would think it would be a bit more considering you're literally gambling with your life. So, at 12,000 feet, it's a little chilly up there lol. I kept my eyes closed for the first few seconds. I tried not to look around lol. I will say that I will never jump out of a plane -- willingly-- again. It's an experience for sure. If you're in the need for a thrill, this is it!

Until the overweight fee...I'm a thick lady so I had to pay extra for my full curves, pls keep that in mind. I should have called and questioned that fee before I arrived but since we drove more than an hour I reluctantly paid it. I did not want to pass on the opportunity to cross off an bucket list activity. I met my instructor Jahn and he was nice and I felt comfortable. He helped me into the gear and gave me some instructions to follow during the jump. The actual jumping out of a plane was better than I thought. Jahn did some spin things on the way down that I just loved!! He was also the photographer and videographer. I got the video and picture package which was a cool addition to the experience. It's like your own personal highlight reel. I do recommend and I would jump again!!! ***Corporate pls add some type of wipes(sanitation) to the gear station. The instructors should not be wiping off/cleaning the goggles with the shirt they have been wearing all day.

It was exhilarating for those minutes and fun to watch some of the pros do it and play around. The location is quite large and plenty of parking around. The staff was patient and understanding. I was so swept up into the whole floating idea that I completely forgot the hand signal meaning. Afterwards, we took some photos, got our piece of paper, and headed out to the mall/IKEA. The downside is that this experience is pricey, but definitely worth a try at least once.

My family had been to their location in Queens, New York before, and it was nice to see the consistent quality of service that they had at this location. Everyone had to start out with a brief training to make sure we were on the same page with the safety guidelines. Mike was fantastic as our instructor, even making our youngest kid in our party with sensory issues feel safe! He even suggested rubber ear plugs instead of the foam ones, since they were smaller and would secure a little bit more comfortably mid-flight. Once we got going, he guided us through a number of different skydiving techniques, including turning, lifting ourselves up, and controlling ourselves to lower back down. It was a wonderful experience for everyone. In fact, it made me and my family want to do indoor skydiving again for additional training!

    Sky's the Limit is a professional and trustworthy company that makes you feel completely at ease,…read moreeven when you're planning to jump out of a plane. The location is great, with rocking chairs and a great view while you wait for your plane. The only downfall, is that you have to check in and may have to wait for 2 to 4 hours before it is your turn to get suited up and get into the plane. While this is probably normal and it was reassuring to see that so many people were in line to do this at this location, it definitely gave you way too much time to get anxious and worry about what you were about to do! The tandem jumping instructors and the photographers were all very professional, kind, and entertaining to work with. I'm looking forward to going back for a second jump in the Spring!

    Believe it or not, free falling at 120mph is a joyous experience. You have no concept of speed nor…read moredo you feel like you're plummeting to the earth. There's no ground rush. The feeling is BLISSFUL. This is free fall and all you can do is appreciate this minute in a state of pure joy. It's awesome!!! If there's anything skydiving does, it opens up your world and makes you consider the possibilities. Skydiving is so much more than an adventure. For many, it's a life-changing experience! So above was my experience, now coming to this establishment (Sky is the limit) As it was COVID time, they check your temperature, make you sign 10 pages waivers ( including COVID one), you pay the amount at their counter (which has no shade). Then you wait for your instructor to call your name and then you wear the gears. On their website and also when I called they said, the jump would be from 13000 feet height. I was under the impression it would be 40-50 seconds of free fall following by 4-5 minutes of para-gliding. Lots of people mentioned the same in the review as well. But sadly, it was not the case with me. Was I disappointed after landing? Yes, feeling of free fall, rushing to earth 120 Miles/hr, all is okay but it was ended in 3 minutes. Freefall was hardly 20-25 seconds and 3 minutes of paragliding. The weather was good, it was not windy or cloudy. I don't care they took me to 2 seater plane which took 30+ minutes to reach an altitude of 10000 feet. All I wanted was, what they claim or promise, my 50 secs of free fall and 4-5 min of gliding. I Paid 225+95 (Video) for this and the whole experience was very short. I feel like cheated. When I further researched, got to know, people who are Groupon customers, they get a service like this (short height jump- short time duration). My 2 star is only for a short duration of the whole experience. The service was good, my instructor was good. No issues in that. Coming to photos and videos, they were not satisfactory. 5/10 on that.

I had the…read moreutter privilege of jumping with none other than the legendary "Pancake", who very nonchalantly told me that he has made more than 20,000 such iconic falls! This was my first attempt and I think it was good for a height-phobic person like me to not have the option of standing on a separate ledge and deliberately jump. In the plane here, you kind of just tip over the edge, and that has to be initiated (thankfully) by your tandem instructor. Those 60 seconds of free falling were the longest of my life, I couldn't wait for the parachute to open. My heart was in my throat, I was wriggling like a cockroach, and I couldn't breathe because of the air pressure assaulting my face. CAUTION TO THOSE WITH PELVIC PAIN: as soon as the parachute opens, the pelvic harness tightens up considerably as you're basically vertical, being completely supported by the harness. You're "hanging by a thread (aka harness)". Think about how that would affect you during and after the activity, since I was in pain hanging vertically in the air. It made it tough to enjoy the slow gliding in such a beautiful weather. Pancake advised that I try and reposition myself so as to almost sit within the harness but I couldn't manage that. The staff is nothing but incredible, they ensure as much safety as possible, and the environment is so Hollywood-y with these sporty gals and guys preparing to jump one after the other from the plane. You can't help but feel the thrill of being surrounded by adventurers. I would like the option of a face shield and/or helmet for tandem jumpers like us so we can enjoy that free fall sensation without struggling to breathe. Also the videography package is worth it!

    BLUF: a great time, and well run…read more Went with a large group on a Saturday. When you first arrive you have to do a waiver and get weighed (can't fly over 300 lbs, and maybe can't fly if b/w 260 and 300. This is where the most annoying parts of the visit was for me. There are bunch of touchscreens in the check in area, and they could just have you go there and check in. But instead you have to scan a QR code on your phone and do it online. Makes no sense, especially since you have to watch a safety video, which you are now doing on a tiny phone, and there are about 5 others walking around you doing the same. Once you check in you get a wristband and go upstairs. Once upstairs there are lockers to store your stuff. Then you get a jumpsuit, goggles and helmet and they guide you through fitting the helmet. Then you meet your "guide" for the session, and he/she brings you into another room, where the second annoying thing happens. You watch the SAME safety video again. Then the guide goes through it again in person. Frankly, the guide's in-person spiel was the best and they could have ditched the other 2. Once you get in it's a great time. The key is to RELAX. If you are tense, it is a lot harder to get stable, and if you're not stable you will waste some of your precious 90 seconds of flight time while the guide tries to stabilize you. The last downside, it is PRICEY. Groups can get discounts and party packages, but it's never cheap. Definitely a once-in-a-while thing unless you have a lot of disposable income. Would I go back? Definitely, but only once in a while and ready to drop some serious $$.

    It's really pricey for what you get. You check in and watch the safety video on your phone, which…read moredoesn't seem very effective. After picking up your gear, you just wait. And wait. It's entertaining to watch the others fly but it gets pretty dull after the first half-hour. We waited almost an hour before the two 60-minute flights. I expected more...seems like they'd at least have a real briefing and show some educational content.
