Do you love thrills, adventure, friendly and extremely knowledgeable instructors? You will absolutely love this place then. I was provided the opportunity to do this for my birthday, not knowing what to expect I decided to ask around. They have a small pool area that you are welcome to lounge around by and some of the regulars also hang out in the area while barbequing. I talked to them to ask who the most adventurous, most daring tandem instructor would be as I did not know if I would get the opportunity to do this again, I wanted to do back flips, front flips, spin, and fall with no fear. I was advised to ask for Matthew (who is now serving in the military, which his entire family has done and they own the business. They also fly/flew for The Blue Angels. WHAAAAT!) I was lucky enough that he was in, and willing to take on the challenge of taking me for my first tandem dive. I went through the instructions, I signed my life away, and got on the plane with full trust in my instructor. Needless to say, I was far from disappointed, and had a very memorable experience. We got to do the dive at sunset, which is reserved for the regular jumpers, not the tandem jumpers, Matthew made sure I stopped and saw the skyline eye level in all of the thrills from spinning, and flipping. He allowed us to free fall after our shoot was open and once I hit the ground I was addicted to this amazing sport. I then found out it was also his 21st birthday so of course made sure he got a great tip to help out with the night before he left for the military. The only reason I rated this a four star instead of all five is because of the staff that answers the phones and takes the money and makes the planning, they tend to be pretty stiff, they treat you like you dont make a difference to them. They made me feel as though my money wouldn't matter to them. I do not care if someone is there to tour a place or to do the event, customers make your world go round and front desk, phone and standard operational personal are the face of a company, they can deter one from coming through. I would like to say, if you ignore the rudeness from them, you will not be disappointed about the adventure. It truly is a one of a kind experience and because of the exceptional instructor, I now am going to make sure, I do this in other areas of the world as I explore more! read more

Wanting to overcome my fear of heights I decided to start at the top. Alex Coker was referred to me and I found him at West TN Skydiving. Once the weather was perfect I made the reservation. After my instructions and suiting up we loaded into the super-charged plane with several other jumpers and away we flew. It was an amazing experience from the positioning in the plane, going from sitting to a squat and inching toward the door with Alex strapped to my back, to standing on the edge of the plane looking at the world below. Then we jumped. With only air beneath my feet I was feeling such peace and excitement. After the chute was released that's when I got to hear just air and to take in the beauty of the day. Our landing was fast and perfect. If you want a thrill try Skydiving with West Tennessee Skydiving and buy the video! read more
