The whole experience was perfect -- the online booking was smooth, Lilly at check-in is always professional and friendly, and the facilities, equipment, and aircraft are top-quality. My mom's tandem instructor, Lucas, is one of the nicest, funniest, and most positive guys you could meet. She had an amazing jump, and we created lifelong memories of a truly special day. Thank you, Skydive DeLand!

This was our last stop on our Erica Group mural day adventure. It is located at the wonderful…read moreSkydive DeLand. So, to our surprise, we got to watch skydivers land, all well taking photos of this mural. It was a pretty awesome experience. Skydive DeLand is world renowned, opening its doors in 1982. It caters to first time jumpers all the way to world champion jumpers. This was Erica Group's first mural! It is representative of an old bi-plane. On her website she says she completed it by 12/20/2017. This day is a day I will never forget. Finding all the murals was such an adventure. And one that was for free. I highly recommend that everybody do this. Get out and see West Volusia County. You'll be surprised as to what you run into:) Definitely put a day aside for your adventure as you'll need it, as a whole day of fun awaits!

I had the pleasure of working with Arlo yesterday for the first time. I've heard of her through a…read moregood friend of mine and he always told me how awesome she is, working day and night on perfecting a rig a for him. That made me think of "Jake from State Farm (Insurance)". If you've seen the commercial, you'll know that the husband is downstairs in the dark talking with Jake from State Farm on the phone at midnight or some odd hour. His wife comes downstairs and goes, "Who are you talking to?" Husband goes, "Uh, it's Jake, from State Farm". She grabs the phone and goes, "Hello, who's this?" Jake answers, "It's Jake with State Farm". Wife gives phone back to husband and goes, "She sounds hideous." LOL. Basically, that's the type of customer service you'll get. I got a new Viso II Altimeter. I told my friend that I wanted to order it first thing in the morning and Arlo texted me as soon as she got into the shop. I received such quick and amazing customer service with her super fun personality. I will go back to do business with them for sure. Thanks Skydiving Outlet!! :-) Here's the commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47cAxRX3aDg

As we know, UPT's lead times are very long so the wait can make you a bit antsy. All I have to say is that the level of customer service and commitment that Arlo has put forth over the past 8 months has been the most outstanding service that I have ever received in all my purchases inside and outside of the skydiving world. I want you all at TSOD to know that I really do appreciate all the effort you put forth to ensure top quality customer satisfaction in every way possible. Arlo has helped me tremendously with regards to any gear questions that I had in addition to maintaining more of a personal relationship as well. She would fill me in on status updates on the production of my rig as well as just sending out an email to say "hey how's your skydive season going?" I highly recommend going to TSOD for all of your skydiving needs since I can assure that you would receive the same level of service that I have had. All of the knowledge shared and recommendations offered have helped me grow as a skydiver and instilled trust and confidence in knowing that I was receiving top quality gear. Thank you so much for putting in the extra effort in customer satisfaction. I'll definitely be calling again soon for additional purchases!

From the owner: Mark Denny's first new design is the Hybrid ParaTrike. Typically, pilots who desire to fly a…read morepowered parachute, paramotor or hang glider trike must purchase each individual aircraft and a wing to match. This is costly and usually limits a pilot’s options to purchasing only one of the three. The exciting aspect of the new Hybrid ParaTrike is that an individual can now fly all three wings on one aircraft with one hanging system. The Hybrid ParaTrike gives the option of both foot and hand steering and throttle. The hanging system for the paraglider and parachute wing is at a distance that corrects the typical flat spot one usually sees when the wing is in flight and allows it to fly the way it was designed. The lines of the wing are split over multiple points on the hanging system by our Split Riser system which gives the aircraft a more stable flight by reducing torque twist and rocking. Other upgrades to the trike include in-flight adjustable Center of Gravity settings.

All of the instructors and videographers were awesome and fun. I was lucky enough to have Art as my instructor. He's absolutely the best! So funny and cool. He made sure I had the best, most adrenaline fueled birthday ever!! I've done a lot of industrial health and safety work and I appreciated how Art and everyone else were constantly checking and double checking equipment, altitude, and time; and worked like a well oiled team - I felt no worries. I highly recommend purchasing the video package if it's your first jump. Scotty was my videographer and he did an amazing job! Those videographers are really crazy! I received a link to my video package within hours and love the amazing video they sent. Of course I've shared it with everyone I know!! But what really surprised me was the number of high quality photos they sent as well. So worth the money! Personally, I think you'd be crazy to jump the first time and not get the video/pictures. They sent me a link for a discounted second skydive and as soon as I get my taxes filed I'm taking advantage of it! If you're thinking about skydiving for the first time, go to Skydive Palatka, they will take good care of you!!

I was rudely informed that customers are expected to "plan on waiting hours to get their turn." It appears that this is actually a first come - first served operation.
