Did my AFF course here and loved every bit of it. the instructors were fantastic, I mainly had Toddy as my coach and he was phenomenal, couldn’t speak more highly of his character. It was clear that Sara and the office staff worked hard to keep everything running smoothly while i was there. Would recommend coming here to learn how to skydive!
